Corrected entry: At the end when Josh and Rebbecca are at the bottom of the ocean, she says they could be 800 miles deep. Being a geologist, Joshua must have known that the deepest point in the ocean is about 6.8 miles deep and therefore had to correct her. And that would be the Marianas trench. The place where they entered the crust. (01:54:45)

The Core (2003)
Corrected entry: Towards the end of the movie, when Dr. Keyes and Beck were going back through the earth towards the surface, they said they were going twice as fast as they were going when they went into the core. Now, judging from the speed Virgil was going when they were headed for the core and how the pressure on your body lessens the farther you go up, the lack of pressure should have caused the veins in their bodies to burst, causing them to die almost instantly.
Correction: They are also in a specially designed ship to take them there. It is conceivable that they stayed at core pressure all the way up and had to go through decompression after they reached the surface, similar to deep sea divers.
Correction: She says they are 800 feet deep but might as well be 800 miles deep. She's just pointing out how hopeless the situation is.
