Nautilus

Nautilus is, without a doubt, going to be seen in the very near future on MST3K. Definitely one of the worst movies ever made. IF you can stay awake throughout the entire movie, you will be treated to the worst acting, the worst directing, the worst cast and the worst dialogue to come out of, wherever, in a long, long time. Give yourself a treat...Go see Planet of the Apes for the tenth time, rather than waste your time and money on this dribble.

It's awful, difficult to tear your eyes away from.

It's like the zit on the end of the nose of the person you are talking to.

It has redeeming features, hence the 2 stars I gave.

The story line has potential and one or two of the actors make a decent attempt with the dire dialogue.

Being made in 2000 really surprised me actually, because it looks and has the same vibe as a film made in the early 90s, possibly sooner.

It reminded me very much of films that I used to watch with my Granddad from that time period too in terms of plot, the kind of "science" going on, the special effects, everything. Even the same kind of lines, some of them being cheesy. It's decent with how it uses the Sci-fi elements such as time travel, and has some nice touches here and there.

So when I thought it was made sooner than 2000, my rating would have been higher, but with a note it was a product of its time. But I guess since it isn't, it drops a little, but if you know anyone who likes films from that time period. Then it could be an enjoyable watch.

If you are expecting something more modern than what it offers, then you will be a little disappointed.

"Crack in the World" meets "Back to the Future". An appallingly bad movie, I dare anyone else to see it to the end. I did, but I can't remember what happens. There is one interesting scene where a scientist sees himself commit suicide in the future. Don't think I've seen that before!

I first watched Nautilus a month ago, and I must say it was OK for a film that the sci-fi channel would probably air on TV constantly. The film is basically a time-travelling film (similar to Back to the Future) that involves saving the world from a untimely destructive event using a futuristic submarine. Richard Norton was OK in terms of acting, but overall all the characters were uninteresting and completely lacking in any depth. However, I thought that the whole concept of time travel in this film was interesting, but it unfortunately fails to achieve an amazing result, and in the end the plot was boring.

I did however enjoy some elements of the film. The time-travelling submarine (probably called Nautilus) was quite interesting to look at (the CGI was quite good), and it gave the film a Jules Verne / 20'000 Leagues Under The Sea element, which I quite enjoyed. Sadly, the underwater craft is only seen in the film several times, and that disappointed me greatly. Overall, Nautilus is a sci-fi film that was interesting at first, but it became dull later on. I just wished they focused more on the submarine than fighting spies or the constant chatter about rubbish...
