Gr 4-8-Performed in radio theatre style, this audio version is a fine retelling of the Jules Verne classic. The St. Charles Players, composed of four actors, play a variety of roles with hammy gusto, although the dialogue is a bit rushed in the opening sections. This adaptation by Jeff Rack does a good job of capturing the feel of Verne's sprawling epic tale. The story is told by Professor Aronnax, who agrees to investigate a series of attacks by a mysterious sea monster. He joins the crew of the ship Abraham Lincoln. The men encounter what they believe is the monster, but turns out to be a large, state-of-the-art submarine, the Nautilus. Aronnax and a hot tempered harpoonist, Ned Land, are imprisoned on this vessel, captained by the misanthropic recluse, Nemo. Nemo takes them around the world. Verne's descriptions of the underwater world, with its exotic creatures and sunken ships, shine thanks to clear narration and evocative sound effects. As the journey continues, becoming monotonous, the program's midsection sags a bit. It picks up steam again with sequences involving a monstrous octopus and a storm. While not an essential purchase, this is an impressive attempt to adapt a classic.

From AudioFile
The music is grand, uplifting, and often epic, especially in undersea and open ocean scenes. An organ is used effectively for the interior of the submarine, and one can almost see Captain Nemo caressing the keys. This is a full-cast recording of Verne's classic. The narrating professor is cleverly articulated with a slight foreign edge to his English. The harpooner is snappily portrayed, and Captain Nemo's voice is adamant and slightly sinister, as the character requires. Only the professor's servant is unconvincing--too young, to this reviewer's taste. Still, this is a vivid reminder of Jules Verne's narrative grandeur. D.R.W.

《海底两万里》这部书是凡尔纳三部曲中最具科幻魔力的,小时候我也读过此书,但是通过假期对这本书的重读,我对这个作品有了更加深刻的认识。 我认为这本书是一本好书,它主要讲述的是这样一个故事:一位教授阿隆纳斯先生,一为鱼叉手尼德师傅和仆人康塞尔三人为了捕捉所谓...
评分尼摩船长,一个孤独、博学、自信、愤世嫉俗的人,给我留下了深刻的印象。虽然小说中没有具体描绘他的遭遇,但可想而之,他一定是在社会中,遭到社会的迫害和排挤,不满社会现实和人情冷漠,才制造了鹦鹉螺号。为了避世也好,为了报复也好,都只是科幻小说中的情节,让人羡慕...
评分《海底两万里》是凡尔纳著名的三部曲的第二部,第一部是《格兰特船长的儿女》、第三部是《神秘岛》。 我小时候的梦想之一就是能买齐这套中国青年出版社的儒勒·凡尔纳全集,不过由于没有合集卖,自己的资金也不充分,只能断断续续的一次几本几本的买,可惜最后,书店...

评分《海底两万里》的作者儒勒·凡尔纳是法国十九世纪一个想象力惊人的科幻作家,他的惊人之处不但他所写的内容很夸张,动人又富有科学意义的小说,更惊奇的是,这本书中所写的故事,在我们现在的时代已是不足为奇,但在他那个时代里,还没有潜水艇呢! 书中的主人公探险者、教授阿...
终于看完了!
评分终于看完了!
评分有点奇怪…… 可能是我没读懂或者印象不是太深……
评分怎么说呢,感觉虎头蛇尾,结局太仓促了,我看的是英文版,一个漩涡就结尾了,开放的有点太开放了吧……
评分这两天的枕边书
