Review of An Inconvenient Truth (2006) by Todd B — 29 Jul 2012
AIT is a documentary that throws a lot of information at you in quick succession, and it mostly succeeds at packaging that info into easily digestible sizes. However, the main parts of the doc (other than the interesting little autobiographical bits about Gore) are little more than a glorified taped college lecture.
What I mean by what's bad about this is that AIT is fairly limited in how much it can impress. And what's worse, if one comes into this doc already knowing most or all of the baseline information presented, AIT does little to further illustrate or expand upon this information.
As I was one of those informed people, I was basically unaffected by this film. Now that's not to say that this is not an important film for the UNinformed (of which there are many), I'm just pointing out that this information was very easily accessible to the general public before AIT's release, as opposed to, say, the information presented in 'Food Inc.
'.
