Film Description
An astonishingly compelling and gripping film that follows Al Gore's campaign to make people aware of the dangers of global warming. An optimistic film that shows that humanity has the power to quell the potential diaster, An Inconvenient Truth is one of the best documentaries of the year.

Review by Mike McCahill on 6th November 2006
In cinemas, this simple but brilliantly effective filmed record of Al Gore's global warming lectures risked alienating audiences with its sheer weight of (not hugely promising) data on climate change. On DVD, this data can be better absorbed - and there remains a lot of it in a film that quickly established itself as one of the year's must-see filmgoing events.
It's not unimaginable that Republican spin doctors have prepared a scene-by-scene rebuttal, fiddling with the labels on Gore's x and y axes while Rome (amongst other major cities) burns, but the general trends the former Vice President describes here appear largely beyond intelligent dispute. That's bad news for polar bears and hydrophobic Manhattanites alike.
Yet, like The Corporation before it, An Inconvenient Truth plumbs the
depths of an apparently dire situation before returning us to the surface on a buoyant note of let's-change-the-world optimism. Ideas are communicated with force and clarity, uniting all those who see it in a renewed course of action. Gore wants to keep the planet turning: it's revolutionary stuff.

Review by Beverley Kinnaird on 10th May 2007
This is a film everyone should see. Many of us think about global warming and try to live our lives in a way that least damages the earth but this film shows that we must have a sense of urgency if we want our children to inherit the same beautiful world we did.
If we all bought a DVD and loaned it to our friends to see or invited friends around to our home to watch it together - that would make a difference. If we all made sure our schools had a copy to show to our children and grandchildren - that would make a difference. If Movie Mail were to offer this film at a special price to everyone - that would make a difference in no small way to everyone on the planet. I believe we need as many people as possible to lobby government, local councils, educators, parents to realise the longer we wait the greater the sacrifices we will all have to make.
We need people in public life to use their influence, politicians, footballers, journalists, actors, ‘personalities’. If everyone, or at least most people, cared enough things would start to happen that would quickly reverse the downward slope our earth, our life, is on.

Top 25 DVD Film Releases of 2006 by Stephen
It seems to have be a bumper year this year for the release of films on DVD's - even though the range of films distributed in the cinema seems to be in one of its contracting periods. I have a small website (www.alt-flix.co.uk)in celebration of non-mainstream Films and have put together a list of 2006 Top DVD Film relases for that. The list here includes a real mixture of mainstream and more left field films but they all have have two things in common - firstly they received a DVD release during 2006 either in the USA or the UK, and secondly, each and every one of them are great movies.
