Review of The 11th Hour (2007) by Paulf. — 19 Apr 2008

I just finished watching the 11 Hour last night and my impressions were that the wide host of interviewees not only appropriate touched on all the necessary points but that they were amazingly articulate and interesting as well.

The Documentary also has some fantastic but often horrific images. These really hit home what those being interviewed had to say. After a while it got a little doom and gloom and I was wondering when they were going to get to the solutions providing a glimmer of hope.

Not only did they do this but they gave more time to it than many documentaries on the subject which all to often only lightly touch upon the subject in the last few minutes. That is my biggest problem with the Inconvenient Truth.

The 11th Hour also has a whole bonus section entirely devoted to solutions which I thought incredibly wise and will probably have a much greater effect because of it. Though I am thankful Dicaprio produced this timely film unfortunately I think he was the weakest link in it.

I felt either a different narrator or none at all would have been best. Overall still it is a must see in my book and I am thankful we have yet another wonderful environmental documentary out there.
