Watch journey 2 mysterious island
Sure enough, Captain Nemo's submarine is still hidden underwater. Sean deduces that Verne's novel contains everything they need to know, and this comes in handy when the volcano explodes, and the island begins to sink into the sea. It's not every day you see the Rock channeling Gene Autry. There is, for example, a scene were Sean, Grandpa, Kailani and Gabato all sit around the old campfire and listen while Hank strums a ukulele and sings "What a Wonderful World." And I mean he sings it: every word of three verses. The director, Brad Peyton, apparently intended it as a genial parody of countless other movies in this spirit. I hope you understand I enjoyed most of this stuff.

And Alexander Anderson, Sean's grandfather, played by Michael Caine, who will not be editing this role into his videos about how to act in movies. (Josh falls through the shell of one, splashes in a pool of yolk and is attacked by an unborn lizard chick.) Also on the island is the lost city of Atlantis, even though it's in the wrong ocean, and bees so big Sean and Kailani can both ride on the back of one. It has an active volcano waterfalls with no apparent water sources streaming down cliffs elephants the size of dogs, and giant lizards that are nowhere big enough to account for the size of their eggs. These four fly off in the helicopter, are trapped in a Force Five hurricane that rips it to pieces and are lucky enough to find themselves alive on the beach of the Mysterious Island. Gabato has a daughter named Kailani ( Vanessa Hudgens), a Polynesian beauty who wears a tank top and Daisy Dukes throughout the film.
(I enjoyed a reprise of this classic shot: Gabato runs toward camera, falls on stomach, looks up …and up … and up.) On arrival somewhere, they hire a tourist helicopter pilot named Gabato, played by Luis Guzman as another one of those low-comedy guys who gets all worked up and is scared of stuff. He proposes that the two of them fly off to the Pacific and find Grandpa. Unanswered is why grandfather would encrypt a call for help.

Josh and Hank make friends by decrypting grandfather's message Hank glances at it and intuits that the two-syllable words stand for dots and one-syllable words stand for dashes, which means Grandpa has had enough free time on his remote island to figure out a way to make Morse code several times longer than it previously was. Sean, whose father in the first film ( Brendan Fraser) has disappeared (from the cast, anyway), now has to deal with Hank ( Dwayne Johnson, aka the Rock).
