 - *Good Movie!*I have seen this movie more than once.Everyone in my family likes this movie.It keeps you watching. Rating: - seat grippingi think this movie is seat gripping, filled with action -drama-down to earth kind of movie Rating:  - yeah rightSure it is cool to see the filthy city of Los Angeles get cleaned up by some hot molten lava, but c'mon now this is too far fetched. You got these Chevys driving around on asphalt that is melting from heat but the tires don't pop...yeah right. Tommy Lee Jones is running around like he is Carl Lewis on a bad day, yet is never out of breath...yeah right. Some kid shows bravery and actually minds his dad, instead of telling his dad and the co-workers to take a hike while he goes joy riding in the suburban...yeah right. Fun disaster film but you know...yeah right. You know what I am talking about. Twister Volcano Hurricane Tsunami Earthquake you know they did like every single one now so there cannot be another. oh wait...Tornado? Yeah right. Rating: - Volcano: Pure Action EntertainmentI can remember going to the theater to see this movie when it first came out. After it came out on DVD, I couldn't help but to purchase it on VHS and then on DVD when it came out. While sitting here reading some of the comments by other reviewers, I can see why they might feel the way they do about this movie and I kind of agree. However, this is your typical Hollywood movie. Full of action and known for creating movies out of impossible scenarios. Just about every movie to come out of Hollywood is like this. However, it is Entertainment and it surely is a ride. While the movie start the set itself up, and it tends to start off a little slow, the action start to pick up when Tommy Lee Jones and his sidekick "Gator," played by Michael Rispoli, head into the tunnels below Los Angelos and discover the fiery surprise just lurking below the city. Just when the movie seems to slow down to give you pause, suddenly the action kicks into high gear once more. Once the big 'quake comes along, the movie kicks itself into high "action" gear as Tommy Lee, Don Cheadle and Anne Heche get their characters moving into high form. While the movie does seem to create an impossible and most likely improbable situation, this movie is intended for Action buffs and will likely be entertained by such. If you're a movie fan looking to nitpick at the inaccuracies in this movie, then it's not for you, but it presents an excellent vehicle for Tommy Lee as an "action star." Rating: - A fun, but mindless movieThis is fun, but predictable and unbelievable star vehicle for Tommy Lee Jones. I recommend this movies for those times you want something enjoyable to just "veg out" for the evening. The movie moves fast enough with Tommy Lee Jones' acting to keep you entertained. Just watch and don't think.
