It is a performances centric movie

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

This isn't a documentary, this is a propaganda piece done much in the style of Michael Moore. Al Gore does stand to benefit financially from global warming, he has invested heavily in alternative energy sources which he candidly discloses pretty much any time he gives a talk on climate change. The strategy of the anti-climate change people is straight out of the tobacco playbook of deny, deny, deny. If you can't beat the facts attack the man presenting the facts. Claim the science isn't there yet. When smokers were stupid enough to believe smoking caused no ill health effects they were only killing themselves, and possibly their families with second hand smoke. The idiots that believe pumping several metric tons of carbon into the atmosphere has no effect on climate are hurting us all. Climate Change should not be a political issue, how we try to solve the problem is definitely political, but to just stick your head in the sand is dangerous.

I saw the film last night, and the theater was packed. It was great.I have always known that plants inhale CO2(more correctly by photosynthesis), and then exhale oxygen. Without C02 all plants would die. Because plants create oxygen, we would then die. Ask a fourth grader. Dr. John Christy points out that C02 rises after temperature's increase. The "carbon-movement" dismisses any differing scientific facts as tainted by the funding sources of the scientists. Strangely,Phil Valentine got NO external funding to make this movie. Dr. Christy is funded by the Government grants. I'm struggling to find collusion here. The opposite is true for most of Gores Scientists. The "carbon-movement" has altered large portions of the known climate record, such as ignoring the little ice-age, turning a blind eye to the fact that carbon rises follow temperature increases, and most importantly, by ignoring the nuclear ball of fire in the sky that we call the sun. The hard fact is that if the public is allowed to here the truth that Co2 doesn't contribute to the greenhouse effect, thousand's of people would loose their jobs. Jobs that depend on illogical hysteria surrounding the carbon-movement. The insanity has got to stop!What disturbed me most of all was the general visceral reaction from Al Gore towards all that wanted to present scientific evidence that CO2 doesn't heat up the earth by contributing to the greenhouse gases. I am one of them, so to Al Gore, I'm a moon-landing denier, a Holocaust denier, and a flat earther. Place a scepter in Gore's hand and we are back to the dark ages. He portrays himself as Galileo and others as the Roman church when the opposite is true. Galileo was chained to a wall,fed prison rations, and surrounded by guards. Gore is chained to the plush seat of a private jet, dines in decadence , and surrounds himself with those that worship his every move-Good analogy Al.Oh, and Galileo was actually correct.What's really at risk is free speech, free thought, and the scientific method. It's the ultimate extortion scheme when Al Gore's "Charities" get a percentage of all global financial transactions to then invest in Al Gores companies. Bernie Madolf who?

TWO THUMBS UP!!!For years we've heard only one side of the global warming hype and dealt with the consequences.Phil and crew do an excellent job of getting together with leading climatologists, laying out facts, and interspersing some of his fabulous humor throughout. It's a sensible documentary that debunks the global warming hype and had the audience applauding several times throughout the movie.Whether you're a global warming believer or a skeptic, this movie is a "must see". I haven't seen a movie in a theater since '99, but this was a movie I couldn't wait to see. It was WELL worth the money . . . . . AND worth the 80-mile drive to get to the theater!

This in depth reporting of the financial gains and conflicts of interest for Al Gore is outstanding. Phil Valentine found experts from the very organizations that Al Gore cited in his movie to totally debunk Gore's claims. -3000 experts agreed in the UN report that climate change was man made-- FALSE (less than 100 scientist contributed to the report).-1997 was the warmest year on record--Somewhat FALSE (accurate records have only been kept for the past 100 years & studies shows that global temperatures were much higher in the middle ages). See for yourself why this movie is consistently getting 9-10 stars from people who actually watched the movie. ***This movie is not available in the markets that keep giving low stars.***
