The US Government has been running secret experiments called Project Destiny which have stopped the Earth's inner core from spinning. Soon there'll be no protection from solar radiation and we'll all burn up. Having caused this problem, the President orders General Thomas Purcell (Richard Jenkins)
to set up a team of scientists and Nasa experts to find an answer.
They will send six "Terranauts," led by Commander Robert Iverson (Bruce Greenwood) and Major Rebecca Childs (Hilary Swank), to the Earth's core to set off a thermo-nuclear explosion and reverse global meltdown.
Conventional disaster movie, like every one you've seen since The Poseidon Adventure, with freak, fatal accidents, special effects and even the Golden Gate Bridge gets it in the span.
