Plot: Ivan Tors Productions, the firm responsible for such aquatic TV delights as Sea Hunt and Flipper, was the prime mover behind MGM's Around the World Under the Sea. The official stars include Lloyd Bridges, Shirley Eaton, Brian Kelly, David McCallum, Keenan Wynn, Marshall Thompson, and Gary Merrill. The real stars are underwater photographer Lamar Bowen, diving-sequence director Ricou Browning, and the folks in Tors' special effects department. The plot concerns a series of underwater volcanic eruptions. Sub commander Bridges (who else?) heads into the depths to find out the cause of the disturbances. Before the THE END sign presents itself, Bridges and his crew are nearly devoured by a sea monster and sucked into a vortex. Though the film's technology-both on-screen and behind the camera--is dated, Around the World Under the Sea is still credible, not to mention thoroughly enjoyable. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

By all means buy it!
This is a wonderful movie, with everything in it for everyone. An All-Star cast with an action story.
The story is as timeless as todays headlines. About the search for the perfect group of scientists with the perfect plan to unite the world in the prediction of undersea earthquakes. A series of undersea detectors planted on the ocean bottoms take you "Around the World Under the Sea".
This is a movie for 'today' because of its accurate predictions of tsunamis, undersea volcanoes, flooding and global warming.
I was privledged in working with one of Ivan Tors film editors years ago at a television station here in Cleveland!
I have a widescreen DVD copy of the movie along with its original soundtrack and "Its behind the scenes making" courtesy of TCM.
Turner shows the movie on occassion with scenes from "Flipper and other Ivan Tors features.
But if you like adventure, scuba diving, Lloyd Bridges, "Goldfingers" Shirley Bassey, Keenan Wynn or "Man From Uncle" David McCallum this movie has it all and beautifully photographed.
...now will they ever release it on DVD?
see it and explore the wonders!

One of the great matinee movies

Shirley Eaton made this adventure film right after Goldfinger, and David McCallum, right after Man from UNCLE, so both were in their prime. Throw in Brian Kelly from Flipper and what's not to love? I saw this movie at the Saturday matintee (along with King Kong vs Godzilla, Our Man Flint and a bunch more) and loved it. I wish they would release this one on DVD.

Around the World Under the Sea
Added 12/15/2004
Great clean adventure movie for any age. The process of collecting the crew was probably some of the best scenes, but the music and videography was great. Campy monster, but otherwise believable.
