Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Emilio Gelado Outstanding documentary to face the problem that is the climatic change, but it sins of certain failures. The most serious fail that I see is addressing the cause of climate change from the point of view of fossil fossils. Some of the biggest emitters of CO2 are the cattle and the felling of tropical jungles for the food of that won or the plantation of oil of palm and the subjects are treated of fast and superficial way in the documentary. Another mistake is to show that all countries, especially the US, are committed to CO2 reductions when most industrial countries welcomed the Paris agreement with great reluctance, For example, the Trump administration has decided not to apply the signed in Paris. Finally, I think the should talk about nuclear energy as one of the alternatives to fossil fuels. Despite all these "failures", it is a great documentary and shows the public this problem and the pressures of the lobbies in the US congress.
Graham Harvey I have been involved in climate change education & action for many years. I found this film lacking in direction. As a narrative, it seemed to lack direction of defining the problems and solutions in a hard hitting way. There was too much talking with experts including politicians. What I believe was needed in terms of giving the strength to the call to action was more visuals of current & possible disasters of the future. There was a strong sense of despondency that Leonardo seemed to have. This would have fitted in ok as the challenges present & future were shown. But the film needed to show more options for resolution & a sense of the wonderful in terms of what some nations are doing while balancing it out with the peril of inaction. I felt like Leonardo had given up hope, so why bother making the film. He needed to demonstrate more sense of danger danger danger... unless unless unless. These challenges should have one sitting up & paying attention but I felt like I was reclining as a somewhat miserable & pessimistic person told his story of the last 15 years. This was not meant to be a film about Leonardo & his associates. It was supposed to be a film of the people. I did not get a sense of that. Even the section filmed in India did not get amongst the local population. Instead we are listening to a well meaning but middle class Indian politician do a diatribe about US consumption. That point had some validity but again the solutions were not being effectively presented.
piru_tenis This movie describes the serious pollution which humans are causing even now. Leonardo DiCaprio met some people which are fighting with pollution, listened to their stories, and concluded we must change our minds to save the earth.In the documentary, Dr. Piers Sellers, especially, made me surprised. I knew about global warming, but I didn't know about NASA's model simulation which indicated some regions that will become cooler than now. I noticed these problems are extreme and more serious than we thought.I like this movie. I got a lot of information from this movie, but I felt that there was some information that we didn't need, such as republican policies. I think this is the problem we are equally facing so this movie doesn't have to mention only republican's failed policies. It felt unnatural. Without it, I consider this movie is absolutely excellent.
