Short Review

An enjoyable Sci-fi romp as a scientist and his father set out on an expedition to find Atlantis but forget to tell the rest of the crew! When a gold statue is found and brought to the surface a bad old Octopus captures all but two of the crew and drags them to the underwater city. The leaders of the city want to keep the scientist with them, but the others are sent to be workers. And due to only being able to breathe the air for a few days they must have an operation to have gills implanted. The scenes are breathtaking and a big-budget must have been given for this film. The Octopus and the ship at the end is just great, they certainly do not make films like this anymore.
