February 22, 2012Whilst I can't deny the facts presented in the film, there's aways the question of what 'facts' are you embellishing or simply not showing at all. I do believe Al Gore's words, and it's really presented in a modern, interesting and thought-provoking way that you can't help but be... read more

August 9, 2011An Inconvenient Truth is probably one of the biggest folly's I've ever seen in a documentary. The film since its release has been proven false by so many scientists that it should be called An Inconvenient Lie. This film is pure propaganda designed to scare you. Nothing in this f... read more

July 12, 2011Itâ(TM)s a moving, emotional romp in the life as we know it, and what it will be many years from now. It portrays all this technical jargon in such way that even the unsophisticated could comprehend. Taken from a holistical standpoint, An Inconvenient Truth tells us of the beauty... read more

June 23, 2011Boring and for me - educational yet uninteresting. Don't get me wrong it's an important point he's making, just not one that I can listen to for an hour or so on a film.

January 24, 2011This is an important movie that needs to be seen by all, regardless of political views or opinions about Al Gore. This film present a lecture on a topic that concerns us all.

October 1, 2010fb733768972An Inconvenient Truth boasts mith great intelligence that anyone would be forced to believe even if it was fake. Al Gore is a flawless presenter, and a jaw-droppingly great speaker. This film/documentary took it far beyond anything I've seen in a while, and I loved it!

August 2, 2010Who knew a powerpoint presentation could be so stolid. Al Gore pumps us up to save the world in this documentary, word for word from his book of the same name.

Just because truths are inconvenient is no reason to suppose they are not real. Full Review

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
The film succeeds powerfully, even though it's short on practical solutions, makes some questionable statements of fact and, given Gore's current ambiguous position in public life, requires a tighter ... Full Review

Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Political will, Gore suggests, is a renewable resource. Maybe he has rediscovered his. And maybe, we figure, after we've seen it, we should discover ours. Full Review

Tom Long, Detroit News
Matter of fact, it's surprisingly entertaining, if ultimately shocking. Full Review

Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press
Communicates the dangers of ignoring global warning with credible urgency in a way news coverage of conferences and TV news segments have never been able to do. Full Review

Michael Booth, Denver Post
Will likely make you admire Al Gore a little more than you already do, worry about the planet a lot more than you already do, and finally, leave you with as many questions as when you started. Full Review

Despite quibbles over details, the case [Gore] presents is compelling, and anyone who isn't sure whether global warming is a mounting crisis or a massive hoax should see this film. Full Review

Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Like an inventive and engrossing lecture by your favorite eighth-grade science teacher, making it an engaging movie, whatever your politics. Full Review
