I personally thought the movie was great. It coincided with our Super Quiz resource quite well. The movie was informative without exaggeration. Everyone should go see this film and do his/her part in alleviating this global issue.

Yeah I loved it.

Though there are indications that this film is part of a political agenda. Like in the beginning Al Gore said "I used to be the next President of the United States." They also showed him reading an article saying "Bush aides editting of Enviornmental Reports" (something like that), etc.

I bet Republicanists would be annoyed by this movie. Also noticed how the US cities Al Gore presented his power point to are all in pro-Democratic states? I mean I don't see him going to Austin, Texas.

Anyhow, whatever Gore's agenda is, it's probably not for selfish gains since he encourages us to learn more about Global Warming and pipe down on heavy polluting machines. And besides, Gore has worked on anti-Global Warming ever since, well I don't know when but it's gotta be a long time.

Ultimately I liked this movie cause it's informative and Gore also tackles doubts and counter-arguments to his theory using logic. I liked An Inconvenient Truth more than Farhenheit 9/11 cause it's alot less biased.

My head looks so small... Anyways, it was a great movie! Next year there should really be a movement in Lincoln to bring to mention more environmental issues, like recycling bins! Lincoln needs recycling bins!
