Deep Core Audience Reviews

Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Diagonaldi Very well executed
SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
fields24 The only saving grace (grimace) is that it came before The Core. With much the same basic plot and science but with more "famous" actors and a bigger budget. Similarities: Laser Gatling gun performing the drilling. The core spinning and trying to start/stop it with nuclear bombs, Hero is a scientist, Crew are scientists and mechanics, (Delroy Lindo and Will Wheaton), practically, and they go to the core by digging a hole with: a self-propelled vehicle. The Core was much better done with better special effects while Depp Core looked like it was made on a long weekend in the American southwest. The flames of the oil well, being put out during the beginning of the movie, keep flaming even after it is supposedly put out. This seems to be a premonition of how their endeavors become in making a movie, and saving mankind: another fizzle.
ozbear Difficult to tell actually who is copying whom since apparently Deep Core is dated 2000 and The Core is dated 2003. At any rate, the similarities (but not the budgets) are compelling: 1)Laser-operated drilling gizmo for going through the Earth 2) Lots of magma around 3) People get snuffed by magma 4) Earth put in peril by misuse of something related to drilling/earthquakes 5) Nukes needed to restore balance 6) Five nukes required 7) Detachable unit(s), at least one required for success.Draw your own conclusions.I must admit that Wil Wheaton did a credible job.I didn't mind him getting snuffed though.Oz
bikejump Deep Core.. what can you say? Mediocre acting with poor CGI and no plot? Yes. Wil Wheaton? Yes. Nobody else you've ever heard of? Righty-o good buddy. But besides that... well... there really isn't much.. The box looked sort of cool. The opening credits were alright for a second, until they started intercutting them with scenes.... I didn't like this movie, but I didn't hate it. I may be one of the few who likes Wil Wheaton, but he gives this movie all the personality it has.C+
Ripe Peach Chant ten thousand geeks, as Wesley Crusher appears on screen. Does he die? Frankly, who cares. With no characterisation, a plot that could be (and probably was) written on the back of a cigarette packet, mediocre actors, a sloppy score, Amateur Hour CGI and fair to middling awful camera work, it's hard to pay attention to anything happening in this B- movie.Guys, here's a hint. When the crew turns up with Hi-8 camcorders, it's time to call your agent and see if there's any commercials going, or small car showrooms that need opened. This film does nobody any favours. It's pretty much welfare for C list jobbing actors and crew. Terry Farrel at least has the grace to look embarrased at doing the same old "lean to the left, spout some technobabble" rubbish she did on Star Trek, but Wesley actually seems to be trying to make something of his role. Unfortunately, all he manages to do is to make it highly irritating. Die, Wesley, die.Low budget doesn't preclude a film from being fun, but this movie sadly tries to hide its budget. So cue "mass evacuation" scenes where five extras run out of a door and are filmed from three angles, sets where the paint on the plywood is barely dry, and muffed lines that are simply accepted rather than reshot (must have been running out of those Hi-8 tapes).It's not even funny bad, it's just desultory and sad. Avoid.
