An Inconvenient Truth (2006)

American politician Al Gore’s attempt to get the world to wake up to climate change and global warming might sound boring on paper, but it’s a genuinely engaging 90 minutes and a definite eye-opener.
It’s essentially a high profile slide show, but Gore is an excellent orator and unlike most politicians he appears to want to answer difficult questions.
It’s a fact that statistics can be presented in a biased way, so there are pictures to back up the claims and the camera rarely lies.
It’s focussed largely on America but is relevant to the whole world. It’s a film everyone should see. It should be mandatory.

4 statistics out of 5

A fine film indeed.

I ended up with a promotional screener copy of this somehow before it came out.

Thanks, Al. You're a guy.

4 from this pervert too.
