Bring on the David Fincher-helmed remake.
June 24, 2006
This is one of the great movie adventures, fully deserving its canonisation in Disney World.

As fabulous and fantastic as anything he has ever done in cartoons is Walt Disney's 'live action' movie made from Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
June 06, 2007
Walt Disney's production of 20000 Leagues under the Sea is very special kind of picture, combining photographic ingenuity, imaginative story telling and fiscal daring.
June 14, 2003
The talky 20,000 Leagues probably won't thrill kids fresh from The Matrix, but they may be interested to know that the Verne film was the effects marvel of its day.
March 09, 2009
A breathtaking piece of entertainment, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is amongst the finest live-action films to come out of Disney Studios.
July 22, 2008
Far superior to the majority of genre efforts from the period (or any period, for that matter), with production design and technical effects that have dated hardly at all.
September 06, 2010
James Mason's portrayal of Captain Nemo is a hard-edged, dramatic performance, with no winking nods or cartoonish layers. You could transport Mason whole into a much darker movie with R-rated violence, and he would fit like a glove.
January 02, 2011
A classic action-adventure for older kids.
June 06, 2007
One of the best Disney live action films and a classic fantasy-adventure.
June 06, 2007
Grandly entertaining.

A good one that could have been better with a little less Kirk Douglas and more scientific things to gawk at in wonder.
