This movie, Around the World in 80 Days, sounded interesting because I saw the 2004 remake of it, which WAS interesting and funny.

But this classic version is not fun at all. After five minutes, I wanted it to be over. Mostly the two main characters, Pliheas Fogg, and Passepartout talked and danced in dull ways. When they traveled from one place to the next, it dragged on and on.

Most kids -- including this 11-year-old reviewer -- don’t like scenes like this. It was very old fashioned to me. Around the World takes place in the 1800s in London. A crook makes a bet that he can go around the world in 80 days, and he holds up a bank to get the money.

I would not recommend this movie if you want a comedy or action film; it's just boring people standing around talking. When the director could have made it more action-oriented, there was just more boring talking, or the main characters dancing or participating in a rodeo with music in the background. None of it seemed to fit together. David Niven played the main character Pliheas Fogg, and Cantinflas plays Pliheas's butler and partner, Passepartout.

The movie's music was mostly generic music from whatever country they are in at the time. There is NO REASON why this movie should be three hours long. There is honestly no plot whatsoever. There are far too many shots of endless oceans or mountains or landscapes than dialogue between the characters. I fast-forwarded through more than half of the movie, because so much just featured landscapes with music.

The only time you should watch this movie is if you are very awake at 2 in the morning and can't get to sleep.
