first i read the book the mysterious island when i be very little and it give me wonderful time of dream and adventure . i be so excited during read it . last year i finally find the book and buy it and until now i have read it many time and i think it one the great book ever write . i start watch this movie with some hope to see the journey and life of my hero from the book and but i couldn not even stand to watch half an hour of it and because it have nothing to do with the book and it make so so bad . the actor and the play . be awful . lot of the scene and special effect make me wonder how be it possible this movie to be make in 2005 when theyre so ridiculous and cheap . to all of you who respect the author and the book you can leave this movie behind and believe me youre do good .
