Special effects was quite cheesy, as you can see a lot of the shots were poor CGG (computer generated graphics). Also the story line was dorky and boring, and quite implausible. The lady character was good-looking. huh.The vehicle looked like it was from Battlestar Galatica.Not much more to say, not worth the money to pay to see, but if it's free, I guess it's okay.That's about it.. don't have much more to say.The "Wil" character from Star Trek didn't add much to the story line.The Chinese connection was lame.

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

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+

The movie kept me captivated but only out of morbid curiosity. It was simply the worst movie I have ever had the misfortune of watching. The movie oozed badness in every bad scene with every bad line. It is like watching a 90 minute car accident.
