a5c7b9f00b 1914: Milo Thatch, grandson of the great Thaddeus Thatch works in the boiler room of a museum. He knows that Atlantis was real, and he can get there if he has the mysterious Shephards journal, which can guide him to Atlantis. But he needs someone to fund a voyage. His employer thinks he's dotty, and refuses to fund any crazy idea. He returns home to his apartment and finds a woman there. She takes him to Preston B. Whitmore, an old friend of his Grandfathers. He gives him the shepherds journal, a submarine and a 5 star crew. They travel through the Atlantic ocean, face a large lobster called the Leviathan, and finally get to Atlantis. But does the Atlantis crew have a lust for discovery, or something else?
A young adventurer named Milo Thatch joins an intrepid group of explorers to find the mysterious lost continent of Atlantis.
Some have praised -Atlantis:-The Lost Empire-a Disney adventure for adults. I don't think so–at least not for thinking adults.<br/><br/>This script suggests a beginninga live-action movie, that struck someonethe type of crap you cannot sell to adults anymore. The "crack staff" of many older adventure movies has been done well before, (think The Dirty Dozen) but -Atlantis- represents one of the worse films in that motif. The characters are weak. Even the background that each member trots out seems stock and awkward at best. An MD/Medicine Man, a tomboy mechanic whose father always wanted sons, if we have not at least seen these before, we have seen mix-and-match quirks before. The story about how one companion, Vinny played by Don Novello (Fr. Guido Sarducci), went from flower stores to demolitions totally unconvincing.<br/><br/>Only the main character, Milo Thatch, a young Atlantis-obsessed academic voiced by Michael J. Fox, has any depth to him. Milo's search for Atlantis continues that of his grandfather who raised him. The opening scene shows a much younger Milo giddily perched on a knee,his grandfather places his pith helmet on his head.<br/><br/>And while the characters were thin at best, the best part about -Atlantis- was the voice talent. Commander Rourke loses nothing being voiced by James Garner. Although Rourke is a pretty stock military type, Garner shows his ability to breath life into characters simply by his delivery. Garner's vocal performance is the high point. I'm sorry to say Leonard Nimoy's Dying King is nothing more than obligatory. Additionally, Don Novellothe demolition expert, Vinny Santorini, was also notable for one or two well-done, funny lines–but I've always liked Father Guido Sarducci, anyway.<br/><br/>Also well done was the Computer Animation. The BACKGROUND animation, that is. The character animation does nothing if not make already flat characters appear even flatter. Aside from landscapes, buildings and vehicles there isn't much to impress.<br/><br/>The plot was the worst. Some say hackneyed or trite. I'm not so sure about that. Any serviceable plot can be made into something new with the proper treatment. Shakespeare often started from a known story and plot and was famous only for putting on a new coat of paint. So the treatment is the thing. And -Atlantis- obviously lacks that.<br/><br/>I cannot begin to go into all the logic gaps without a spoiler section. The plot was bad. The plot's bridges snap like twine and the ending does not make sense. To add to that, the script and the animation is peppered with annoying sloppiness.<br/><br/>** SPOILERS **<br/><br/>Right at the beginning when Milo reveals that runic or Celtic symbols have been wrongly transliterated and the "Coast of Ireland" should read the "Coast of Iceland", we begin to have problems. The writers of the script would need to know the British take for Eire or Eireann"Ireland", and completely ignore the older, Latin term Hibernia. But more than this, they need to know of the Vikings conspiracy to call the greener island Iceland and the icier island Greenland.<br/><br/>By making it the matter of a mis-tranliterated "letter", the writers have doomed themselves to requiring a runic version of English and a post-Roman date on the script. Since this is long after Atlantis was supposed to have sunk into its undersea cave. And without visible clues and less technology than Milo had, made the inscription far less trustworthy.<br/><br/>The Shepherd's Journal could not be written before the sinking of Atlantis, or it would know nothing about the cave or the crystal lying "in the King's eye". It must have been written after the sinking, but without even the technology that Milo's expedition had, how the heck did anybody get by the Leviathan. So how could it know more about anything after that? And why would it be written in Atlantian?<br/><br/>Automatic writing and clairvoyance or astral travel can explain these things. However clairvoyance and astral travel do not require to write in Atlantian. So it's got to be some sort automatic writing. Since no-one left in Atlantis can read, it must be the spirits of the crystal beaming messages to the surface. This would have made more sense. But could also have been explained within the movie: Milo could shepherd have discovered that this power had been calling him all his life–appeared in dreams, etc. This needed to be explored in the movie.<br/><br/>The Atlantians should simply not be able to comprehend modern languages. No-one expects that the original Indo-Europeans would be able to converse in Europe, anymore than Romans would understand that hard "c"s or their day became French "ch"s (pronounced like "sh"s, no less!)<br/><br/>Current Atlantians were alive before the cataclysm–when apparently they *could* read, yet now are unable to read what they used to, or operate similar machinery.<br/><br/>The Mass Illiteracy points out a crucial flaw in the movie. NOTHING seems to have happened to this culture. It seems suspended in air until Milo can rescue it. Even though it appears that life is not a constant struggle for survival, no-one wants to compose poetry or write novels and perhaps it is a combination of Atlantian school systems going downhill toward the end and lack of good fiction that caused Atlantis to fall into illiteracy.<br/><br/>Kida can be excused for not knowing how to read or operate the machinery if she was so young when the Cataclysm of Stupidity set in–But ANY OF IT **HARDLY** qualifies her father for Deification!! Kashakim's foolishness almost single-handedly wiped his people from existence. Killed a bunch in the cataclysm, stalled progress (not a lot killed here, but he oversaw a massive slide in culture and progress) until someone could take the crystal to kill everybody, if they weren't boiled in lava first because the Giant Robots weren't there to protect them.<br/><br/>A bolt of blue electricity should have shattered Kashakim's likeness, when Kida tried joining her father's image to the circle of GREAT Kings of Atlantis!<br/><br/>Even though Milo was the only one who could read Atlantian, Rourke and others knew enough to look through a book of gibberish and find a page on a crystal–which he knew to be a crystal and not some stylized astrological or "phases of the sun" diagram.<br/><br/>If Milo's grandfather had told Rourke about it, it still does not explain how Rourke would have suffered from Milo's reading itpart of the book. Ripping out the page–which was dog-eared in Rourke's hand, even though Milo found NO sign of a torn page in the book apparently–only was there to tip off the viewer that "something was not quite right". Unless the word "crystal" would have set alarms off in Milo's head that somebody would try to steal it, Milo would have suspected nothing. It's just thick-headed foreshadowing.<br/><br/>The crew's "double-cross" was not a character change. We learned that Vinny, Sweet, Audrey and Cookie had been going along with Rourke from the beginning. However, the "change of heart" falls flat. It was a change, and needed to be better motivated. Hard to do with characters who weren't given anything to begin with.<br/><br/>Niggling little bit that the lava flows up over the dome, instead of filling in the rest of the area that we view the sequence from. It's liquid; it will not flow over the protective dome until it fills up all lower areas.<br/><br/>The ending STINKS!– and makes no sense other than to appease political correctness. With it's powersource restored, Atlantis is no longer a weak power, needing coddling. The giant robot guardians and the sky-cycles shooting blue lightning suggest that they have less to fear from us than they might. The technology is superior to ours, and definitely to early 20th-century. In the end Milo needs to teach the Atlantians to read, for what? The whole idea is to leave their little quiet, chastened culture alone, not to send it into hyperdrive.<br/><br/>** END SPOILERS **<br/><br/>Perhaps, the Lost World plot and the turn-of-the-century setting should give me a hint that this is more an homage to pulps. The failures I find with the film agree with this idea. But I am at a loss why I should pay to see thin characters and plot holes simply because many dime novels had themwell. And pulp stories is part of the "crap they can't sell adults anymore", anyway. We have become a bit more sophisticated and our pulp needs to grow upwell. Raiders of the Lost Ark lost none of its pulp feel and avoided so much badness.<br/><br/>4 out of 10–the movie is enjoyable butI think about the plot, it seeps ever lower.
I love this movie it is one of my all time favorites and I watch it over and over again it is one of the best I have seen at the top of my favorite movie list I recommend all to watch it, it's filled with adventure, comedy, action, and romance and if you don't watch it you are missing it big time and I enjoyed watching it because it can entertain me for hours on end from all the action and new thing that I could learn and I also enjoyed it because of the characters stories about their past kept it interesting also so it was hard not to stop watching it. I wish they would make a third movie because then I can have a whole other adventure to explore.
Has the comfortable, old-fashioned, earnest idealism of a '50s Disney action-adventure.
They are called coelacanths, a primitive order of fish once thought to be extinct. The first live specimen was caught off the coast of South Africa in 1938, 24 years after the events depicted in the movie. However, it is entirely feasible that Whitmore, a collector of rare artifacts, could have gotten a hold of a few specimens before anyone else. According to the DVD audio commentary, he was blinded when the Heart of Atlantis is activated and sinks the city. If you notice, his eyes are normal when he tells young Kida to look away in the opening sequence. One of P.T. Barnum's famous quotes is, "There's a sucker born every minute." Rourke is referring this quote regarding how the crew have chosen to supposedly withdraw from a lucrative deal and seem to be siding with Milo. The Leviathan was speculated to be a mythical sea-monster to frighten the superstitious which Milo quoted from the book of Job from the Bible .<br/><br/>In actuality, it was a very powerful Atlantian warship. Before Atlantis was sunk, many Leviathans were once part of the Atlantian navy. The producer of the film stated that only one of the many Leviathan's survived the "Great-flood" and the last remaining one, which was seen in the film, was tasked with guarding the secret entrance to Atlantis.
