Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Clevercell Very disappointing...

ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Jillian Kraus Rather than ringing an alarm, The 11th Hour presents the necessity of alarm. The world around us is crumbling; and although it is currently unclear as to whether the biggest part is the fault of humans on a natural process, this documentary effectively raises awareness of human's impact on the planet while simultaneously offering viable options for reducing our carbon footprint. With captivating visuals that appeal not only to the aesthetic senses, but emotional ones as well, this movie's ultimate message is both frightening and beautiful. This movie's only true flaw lies in its unintentional demonization of technology. Although the experts repeatedly refer to the possibilities available to us through technology, ultimately the end picture is that of destruction rather than redemption. The juxtaposition of the industrial process for making Kevlar to the natural chemistry of a spider-web is damning to an industry that has saved thousands of lives. They paint a beautiful picture of this ideological, waste-free society, when in reality the change they're asking for can only take effect over a great deal of time through a great deal of concentrated effort.

Roland E. Zwick A companion-piece of sorts to "An Inconvenient Truth," "The 11th Hour" is an informative and compelling documentary about the adverse impact humanity is having on the place we call home.Written and directed by Leila Conners Petersen and Nidia Conners and produced and narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, "The 11th Hour" shows how de-forestation, the polluting of the air and water, the over-consumption of fossil fuels, the overwhelming accumulation of waste, etc. are collectively contributing to the larger problems of global warming and climate change. It chronicles the impact such changes will have on the people of the planet, as widespread droughts, mega-storms and rising waters make themselves felt with ever-increasing frequency and force.As the filmmakers see it, the root of the problem lies in the disconnect between humans and the environment, in our self-absorbed insistence that nature is ours to subdue and dominate, not to live in harmony with. In an ironic twist of fate, it is that very attitude that may well lead to our ultimate destruction. For it is plainly evident that in a battle between humans and the planet that sustains us, the planet will emerge victorious in the end.After making its case on the scientific level, the movie then takes on the monetary and political forces that make addressing this issue so difficult to do on a practical basis. It goes after profit-driven multinational corporations – primarily the oil industry – for, essentially, buying politicians and, thus, effectively disenfranchising the everyday citizen and voter. But those citizens don't get off scot-free either, as the film makes the point that it is the near-universal obsession with rampant consumerism that greatly contributes to the problem.The last third of the film is devoted to finding solutions to the problem, to designing and developing new technologies that will actually help to make it possible for us to live in harmony with nature. The argument is that this new technology will ultimately result in a new economy, one based on clean-energy and recycled resources, rather than heavily polluting fossil fuels.Scientists, authors and other experts in the field – including Stephen Hawkings – are interviewed throughout the course of the film.The movie ends on an upbeat, power-to-the-people note, showing how all individuals can make a difference by raising their awareness and making informed and thoughtful choices in what they do and buy – and by getting involved.It's an inspiring message from an inspiring film.

killer2 i think that this film and all that global warming is one of the biggest lies ever ... film is very good made but it is one big lie. it might be an influence of pollution into global warming ... but not as much as they show us. if anyone want to know more about that ... just try to research. there is many many lie's in what American movie maker are poisoning us. (and they government), start to convince You with 2 titles for the start: zeitgeist: the movie and afterwards check 2nd part: zeitgeist: addendum. maybe there ios a little info about global warming, but if You seen this You might have a future need to see more of that kind of movie. Anyway ... good made film but i don't believe that this movie present real source of our problems ...

lastliberal The best thing about this film was the fact that it did not focus on the Earth's destruction, but on man's eventual demise as a species. The earth with survive our rape and plunder. It has been here for 4.5 billion years, while we have been here but 150,000. We will eventually join the 99.999% of the species that have lived on this planet and who are now extinct. How quickly we join them is up to us, but we will eventually go the way of the dinosaur.Through our heavy consumption and trash creation, we are rapidly stripping all of the resources from the Earth and polluting what we don't consume. Soon, we will be faced with the inevitable - it's all gone. If you haven't seen "A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash," then it should be on your list as a "must see." Along with "An Inconvenient Truth," this film tells us what will happen if we stay the course.The only fault I found in the film was the rapidity with which it presented information. This stuff needs to be digested slowly, and we got it rapid fire. Still, it is an important addition to the story of humankind and how we are planning our own destruction.
