Four years after the previous movie, the now seventeen-year-old Sean (Creator/JoshHutcherson) is fixated on finding his long-lost grandfather (Creator/MichaelCaine), and, driven by the first film's revelation that Verne's ''Literature/JourneyToTheCenterOfTheEarth'' was a factual account, believes he has found the key to discovering him: by overlaying the island maps in ''Literature/GulliversTravels'', ''Literature/TreasureIsland'' and ''Literature/TheMysteriousIsland'', he creates a map of a new island, complete with coordinates. Heading to the western Pacific to seek out the island, Sean and his stepfather Hank secure a helicopter for their search but are caught in a storm and crash on their destination, a lost land of dwarf elephants, giant butterflies and huge, aggressive lizards -- and also, incidentally, the home of the lost city Atlantis. They discover that the island submerges and reemerges on a regular cycle, and, when they realize that it will soon vanish back into the sea, they set out on a frantic search for their only way off -- the ''Nautilus'', Captain Nemo's legendary submarine.
Creator/VanessaHudgens, Creator/LuisGuzman, and Creator/KristinDavis also co-star.

!!This movie contains examples of:
* ArtifactTitle: A mild case. The title would have made more sense if they had left off the "Journey 2" part, but there is ''technically'' a journey (just not to the center of the earth and it's not particularly long as they spend most of the movie trying to get ''off'' Literature/TheMysteriousIsland).
* BigDamnKiss: Between Sean and Kailani in the movie's climax.
* CanonWelding: This movie makes at least the settings of ''Journey To The Center of The Earth'', ''20,000 Leagues Under the Sea'', and ''The Mysterious Island'' equally real in-universe, as well as parts of ''Literature/TreasureIsland'' and ''Literature/GulliversTravels''.
* DeathByMaterialism: Narrowly averted with Gabato, who nearly dies trying to dig up a giant lump of gold. He isn’t motivated by greed, however. He just wants to give his daughter a better life and a good education.
* DisappearedDad: Hank’s father ran out on him when he was a small boy. [[FreudianExcuse As a result]], Hank is determined to be the best stepfather he can possibly be to Sean.
* DoNotCallMePaul: Henry... er, Hank. Actually, it's not made clear if Henry really is Hank's name, or if Hank isn't really a nickname, but all the same, Hank doesn't like being called Henry.
* FanService: Music/VanessaHudgens wearing a tank top and short shorts for almost the entire movie. Also, did any male viewers who saw it in 3D regret paying extra in the scene where she crawls out of a collapsing tunnel with the camera [[MaleGaze on her from behind]]? Thought not.
