This really has nothing to do with a "journey to the center of the earth". Four people spend over a week getting to Alaska, but manage to travel deep into earth in what seems to be a day. (One shown scene for coffee and shooting one bird). They fortunately had a never ending supply of rope, ammunition, food and drinking water in their magic packs.
The first clue how bad this would be were the overhead shots of the boxers, where it's so obvious there is no physical contact but plenty sounds of blows connecting, followed by no fear of getting into a strange body of water (with an aquatic creature that just wanted a taste as it let go after 15 seconds), wandering alone into thick jungles and never getting lost, etc etc etc. Then the ending which was so very obviously set up early in the movie capped it all off.
I think had it been called "4 people going into a cave" it would have made more sense. I did give it a 4 rating because it was kind of a goofy spoof and the main characters entertaining.
