Quotes from various critics:
"It's not even worth cataloging this bomb's innumerable logical chasms that plague nearly every scene, because defenders of low standards for popcorn pictures could just pull out the old check-your-brain-at-the-door argument. But "The Core" doesn't begin to earn brain-check status because in addition to being patently nonsensical, the movie is downright boring. "
"Just call it 'Cormageddon.' Come to think of it, given its hokey, jokey quality 'Corn-mageddon' might be more apt."
"The Core would be laughably bad, if it didn't happen to be so bad that it was impossible to laugh at."
"Often big, dumb, explosion movies are fun to watch and do very well at the box office. But this one suffers from very bad timing"
"This is a film that the audience can script as they increduously watch the filmmakers take the story in directions even they wouldn't dare go."
"The exact same shopworn characters die in the exact same order...The simplest laws of physics are utterly ignored..."The Core" is beyond idiotic."
"The first half-hour of The Core is hip enough to its own moribund formula that for a brief, shining moment, there's hope the film will actually be a goofy gas instead of the effects-bound lump it becomes."
"The film?s only unknown is in what order the crew members will make their ultimate sacrifice so their comrades can complete their mission."
"So howlingly awful that it has unwittingly found a place in that elite group of films that can claim to be 'so bad they're good.'"
"Good science fiction awakens a sense of awe, and even mediocre sci-fi sometimes manages wonder. But The Core does neither."
