Let's leave aside the small problem of Krakatoa actually being west of Java. This 1969 epic adventure about treasure hunters who encounter the volcanic island just as it blows apart and who then get bounced around in the ensuing tidal wave is technically impressive if narratively lame. An interesting cast of familiar actors portray the mixed group of adventurers, but the script and dialogue are so weak one just wants to get past all their drama on the high seas (the group is seeking sunken fortunes on the ocean floor) and watch the geological fireworks. Fortunately, they make for quite a show. --Tom Keogh

    Description

    Based on the true story of the Krakatoa volcano eruption, this "spectacular production features some of the most beautiful and awesome sights and sounds ever to grace the...screen" (Boxoffice)! Maximilian Schell (Deep Impact, A Bridge Too Far) leads a rousing ensemble cast in "an exciting and enjoyable spectacular on the high seas" (LA Herald-Examiner) that is "so buoyant and bracing you can almost smell the sea air" (Los Angeles Times)! Captain Hanson (Schell) of the Batavia Queen embarks on a perilous search for sunken treasure off the island of Krakatoa. To find a fortune in rare pearls, he must brave a boiling sea, douse an uprising by a horde of convicts, and outwit a greedy crew desperate for more than their fair shareonly to confront the most devastating and catastrophic volcanic explosion the modern world has ever felt!
