About this product

Product Information

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.

  • Too Much Al, but Stil...

    Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" is a compelling presentation about the urgency and potential impact of continued global warming. It's also a reasonably entertaining documentary, considering it's basically a Powerpoint presentation, though Al clearly used something better than Powerpoint to put it together on his prominently displayed Mac Powerbook. As an aside, the good guys always use Macs in the movies, while the bad guys use PCs. Watch and see if I'm wrong. Anyway, this last point about Al and his Powerbook gets at my only complaint: too much Al. The guy's massive ego just comes blasting through as he returns again and again to the sort of self-promotion that led so many to jump on him when he made otherwise trivial gaffes about his role in ...

  • The Truth is out there

    Al Gore asks, "Should we prepare for other threats besides terrorists?" Decidedly yes. Formerly the next president of the United States who never got to do the job, Al Gore continues to go city by city delivering his slide presentation on global warming to try and better the world, not just the country. This twice Oscar nominated film not only explores in detail the progression and effects of global warming, but also follows Al Gore's autobiographical journey of important moments in his life that made him who he is today. This movie really is a frightening account of what could happen fifty short years down the road if action isn't taken. It isn't all despairing, however. Gore relays the information in an often amusing manner with jokes and banter ...

  • An Inconvenient Truth (2006, DVD)

    Info is honest, concise, and important... Al Gore did and excellent service to our country with this project, but as a life long Republican I understand clearly that many Republicans will never view this important film simply because of his political views, which has little to do with the film's factual content - its a shame. I rented this movie then decided I needed to own a copy to show to others... david castello - Science Teacher

  • Great Presentation, BUT IT HAPPENS TO BE TOTAL RUBBISH!

    If you want to sensationalize Global Warming by the use of smoke & mirrors, let's spend money & produce a film that will scare us into believing CO2 levels will destroy us all. THIS FILM IS TOTAL RUBBISH! Don't you get it yet? The EARTH is involved in a cycle that continues going up & down. This is an ANCIENT NATURAL PHENOMENON that is continually reoccurring CONSTANTLY. Notice that ever 360 years A CYCLE OF EXTREME MOISTURE enters the atmosphere due to natural PATTERNS caused by VULCANISM (earth activity) which warms the SEAS, Solar cycles (Sun spots) causing EXTRA RADIATION, IN-TURN DRIVING long-term climate changes, NOT MANKIND & CERTAINLY NOT C02 EMISSION. All of this RUBBISH has to do with POWER/CONTROL of the MASSES. Let's just do some CO2 ...

  • An I nconvenient Truth

    I loved everything about this documentary. I have so much respect for Al Gore as an envirinmentalist and as a man. I wish more men were like Al Gore,forgetting the big macho,ego stuff and political games and just getting right down to business. He has a very important message ....and hes doing it all by himself country by country, person by person and now the dvd. He shouldn't have to carry this burden alone. As he states, there are things all of us can do every day to reduce carbon dioxide. We don't have to stop living but we do need to be more conscious of every thing we do. The law of cause and effect. Every thing effects everything. Every movie,every book every person you meet in your life effects you in a positive or negative way. Television needs to air more educational ...
