Excellent introduction to some basic priciples of the science volcanology and the to the scientists who work in this field every day. This movie is informative and very well filmed. The material is also presented with a certain sense of tasteful humor.

I watched this movie in an Earth Science class before we were to go on a trip to Mt. Saint Helens. The images are extrordinary, and the detailed accounts of what happened are fantastic. I give it 2 thumbs up!!

This is a highly entertaining movie. Tommy Lee Jones plays the head of OEM (Office of Emergency Management) in Los Angeles. Anne Heche (bi or straight-she rocks!) plays a geologist trying to convince tommy that a volcano my very well spring up from under the streets of LA. Lo and behold, when it happens, all hell breaks loose. Tommy and anne then work together to save whats left of the city. This movie is a good look at the folly of LA and the people that live in it.
