Movie Description
A movie based on a PowerPoint presentation by a former presidential candidate may not sound exciting, but once AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH hits its stride viewers may be surprised how compelling the subject matter proves to be. While many high-ranking political figures continue to argue about global warming, Al Gore has plunged headlong into a serious wake-up call for the planet with a series of lectures about the problem. It's on one of these lectures that this movie from director Davis Guggenheim is based. Guggenheim breaks up Gore's delivery by illustrating his points with film footage, much of which features the former Democratic nominee exploring the globe as he examines the effects of global warming. Gore's speech is neatly divided between calm recitations of the facts about the issue and several stories of a personal nature. His skills as an orator are considerable, and it's hard not to be alarmed by most of what he has to say. Indeed, as Gore relates tales of melting polar icecaps, rising global temperatures, and the reluctance of political leaders to do something about the problem, the film takes on an air of hopelessness and doom, especially as no easy solutions are offered. Gore's advice is for individuals to take steps to reduce their own inadvertent poisoning of the atmosphere, and to persuade others to do likewise. It's a powerful message, and one that is likely to remain in non-cynical minds long after the film comes to a conclusion.

Editorial Reviews
"[I]lluminating, fascinating and sometimes frightening. A thought-provoking cautionary tale that is also lively and entertaining, the film showcases the dedication, warmth and, yes, charm of the former vice president."
USA Today - Claudia Puig (05/26/2006)

"One of the most exciting and necessary movies of the year..."
New York Times - A. O. Scott (06/09/2006)

"An eco-horror film that is anything but escapist entertainment..."
Sight and Sound - Amy Taubin (09/01/2006)

4 stars out of 5 -- "Even more than a call to action, it's a fascinating glimpse at the leader he might have been and, if rumours are to be believed, may yet become."
Total Film - Neil Smith (10/01/2006)

"[A] movie that joins recent polemics like BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE and SUPER SIZE ME in jolting the heart and gut as much as the mind, by entertaining while educating." -- Grade: A-
Entertainment Weekly - Joshua Rich (11/24/2006)

"The former veep delivers his message with the ardor of a true activist."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (11/30/2006)

5 stars out of 5 -- "More engrossing than a PowerPoint presentation by a semi-retired politician has any right to be."
Uncut - Andrew Mueller (01/01/2007)

"[Y]ou will be astounded and amazed at the precarious, and seemingly dire, situation our Earth is in."
Widescreen Review - Widescreen Review Staff (02/01/2007)

    An Inconvenient Truth

    If you only see two movies this year, please make this one of them.

    An Inconvenient Truth speaks of the harmful effect Global Warming is having on our planet, the planet Earth. Al Gore does an amazing job filling this film (which is basically a recording of a slide show presentation he does) with laughter, information, and cold hard facts.

    If you still don't believe that Global Warming is something to worry about, see this film, it might change your mind.

    An Inconvenient Truth is like the film Super Size Me, it offers info most of us already know, but the fact that it throws it right in our face so we can no longer ignore it is the best thing that can happen. We all know how bad fast food is, and we all know that pollution is killing the enviroment. People started doing something about the fast food, the big corporations offered low-fat alternatives and smaller portion sizes. Here's hoping that this film will make waves in the political community.

    I'm only 22, and I fear that when I turn 75 I'm going to see a planet Earth that I no longer recognize.

    Please see this film, just once.

    Final Verdict:

    There is no rating high enough out of any number that can significantly portray the importance of the film. But since I have to give it a rating, I rate it 100/5.

    Rent or Buy?: Buy this film, and show it to all of your friends, family, and anybody else who will listen, the future is now, and without action, there will be no future at all.

    IF YOU FIND THIS REVIEW HELPFUL PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE. Thank you.
