Customer Reviews

Fun formula treasure hunt movie.

Hanson (Maximilian Schell) is a smiling cordial captain. He greets the menagerie of passengers. Among which are balloonists, a deep-sea diver, exotic female pearl divers, and a lady with a questionable background, a claustrophobic marine biologist, and a last-minute pack of chained criminals. They are all going to Krakatau just before it blows its top. Most go for a part in a possible treasure. The captain and his girl Laura (Diane Baker) have ulterior motives. Is there a treasure or a sham? Lots of scenery and quasi early science. It has the look and feel of all of old Jules Vern movies like “Journey to the center of the earth.” The tsunami scenes may remind us of a more recent real tsunami. The only real drawback is the extended scenes. The movie over tells disasters by stretching them out forever. You can get bored before the songs are over. And they constantly point out the obvious over and over and over again.
