We enjoyed the film as a whole. The photography and message were clear and important. I hope more people see it and discuss it like we did.

Does for Inconvenient Truth what Blue Gold does for water! 2009-06-01

Reviewer: K. Davis

When I saw Inconvenient Truth, I felt I asked "where's the film?" It was a speech somebody famous was giving, but ultimately just a speech. 11th Hour is a FILM, which is what a documentary should be. Another great example of how powerful film can present facts is Blue Gold World Water Wars, which I also review and which has been called by press 'The Inconvenient Truth about water'. 11th Hour should be watched by all and I hope it gets the attention it deserves in a post-Inconvenient Truth world.

Great Documentary! 2009-05-11

Reviewer: T. Nguyen

I thought I knew all there was to know about global warming and the environmental crisis, but this movie gave me a new perspective on the subject. It was quite inspiring. I just graduated undergrad with a BFA in Visual Arts and planning on going to grad school for architecture. Also, as I've grown up in Buras, LA at the mouth of the Mississippi River, I feel like I can make a difference for my community. But you don't need to have an architecture degree to make a change for the better, all you need to do is make the conscious decision that you will make more environmentally friendly choices. The statistics are quite interesting as well. One part mentioned how much it would cost to create a machine that'll do what nature already does for us for free (turning carbon dioxide into oxygen, etc.) And they also make it clear that we don't have to drop all our technology and become hunter gatherers wearing animal skins and holding spears again. We just have to redesign our technology to be more environmentally friendly. We have the minds and resources to do so, too. Watch this movie, it's only $5 and even comes in an environmentally friendly paper cover.

The 11th Hour 2009-05-05

As a prospective teacher, I bought this DVD hoping that I could use it in my classroom. I will definitely be using it. There are little problem solving bits that I can show in class that will help my students understand sustainability and all that goes with it. I'm excited to try it out.

11th Hour Inspiration to go green with Leonardo! 2009-04-26

Reviewer: Lundegaard

This movie is fantastic. Everyone should watch it and tell ten friends to do the same. The beginning starts out a little grim but that is because it talks about things that make us uncomfortable.... reality. However it is extremely informative and it explains what can be done and needs to be done to help restore our beautiful earth back to a healthy status again. It's time people start doing something rather than talking about doing something, hopefully Leonardo will inspire people to do just that, it worked for me. You will be proud you watched it!
