Leave your thoughts about An Inconvenient Truth.
| Portland OregonianMarc MohanThe movie, like the man, seems more interested in spreading the gospel of environmental responsibility, and in doing so it's probably the most important film of the year. |
| New York Magazine (Vulture)David EdelsteinOne of the most realistic documentaries I've ever seen--and, dry as it is, one of the most devastating in its implications. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertAm I acting as an advocate in this review? Yes, I am. I believe that to be "impartial" and "balanced" on global warming means one must take a position like Gore's. There is no other view that can be defended. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleVirtually everyone who sees this movie will be galvanized to do something about global warming -- and everyone should see this movie. |
| Baltimore SunMichael SragowIts knockout success is a testament to Gore's eloquence and humanity and to the dexterity of his director, Davis Guggenheim. |
| EmpireHelen O'HaraPowerful, intelligent and surprisingly entertaining. |
| The New York Review of BooksJim HansenGore has put together a coherent account of a complex topic that Americans desperately need to understand. |
| The Film YapNick RogersThose attacking Al Gore as a misinformed prophet or political crybaby likely never watched the film. Holding court with genial wit and warmth, Gore emphasizes his slide content's morals and ethics over its politics and ends on practicality, not panic. |
| Sight and SoundAmy TaubinAn eco-horror movie that is anything but escapist entertainment... |
| Urban CinefileUrban Cinefile CriticsGore is inspired here, a man on a crusade that slide by slide and impassioned remark by remark drives home the inconvenient truth about global warming. It's an alarming scenario so calling him alarmist really misses the point. |
