Journey 2: The Mysterious Island has everything. Giant bugs. Tiny pachyderms. That pairing of The Rock and Michael Caine for which we've all been waiting for years now. In truth, the followup to the Brendan Fraser-starrer Jourey to the Center of the Earth looks like a good deal of fun. Josh Hutcherson stars as young explorer Sean, whose new stepfather Hank (Dwayne Johnson) joins him on an expedition of a mysterious island where Sean's grandfather (Caine) has been residing for years. Joining the pair on their voyage are pilot Gabato (Luis Guzman) and his brazen daughter Kailini (Vanessa Hudgens).
We have several clips below showcasing some of the fun in store in Journey 2. Check them out, and catch the movie in theaters this Friday, Feb 9.
Everyone knows that giant lizards are afraid of fire. Oh, wait, no... they're attracted to fire. They love fire. But they at least have to be taken down by a good solid punch, right? ...No, that doesn't stop them either. Hank doesn't really know much about giant lizards. So, giant lizards are out of his wheelhouse. But giant eels? No problem for Hank. In the depths of the mysterious island waters, Hank handles a monstrous sea creature like a pro.
Which is cooler: giant butterflies or tiny elephants? Luckily, you don't have to decide! Journey 2 has both! Quite a mysterious island this is, eh?
It's always tricky getting along with in-laws. Especially when yout father-in-law is an ingenious hermit who has lived on a physics-defying island for years, and you're trapped there with him and your new stepson.
Gabato might think himself the head of the family, but his daughter Kailini is the real brains...and hard bargainer...behind their piloting operation. Unfortunately for Hank and Sean, she's not an easy sell.
