Fun disaster movie about a volcanic eruption. It has James Bond and Sarah Connor. What's not to love?
It's James Bond vs a volcano, what else do I need to say? Grandma is a bad ass (not appropriate for small children)
Cheesy at times but makes up for it with a good visual effects and good lead performances. Good, turn-your-brain-off disaster movie.
Fun if unoriginal disaster flick about a volcano affecting a small town, engaging despite plot requirements, characters w/ solid motivations
A giant volcano erupts in a small quaint little town where a geologist tries to warn everybody before its too late. Linda Hamilton stars
It's from the 90s, so aged a bit, but still very good and very entertaining!
One of 90s best disaster flicks & probably the best volcano film of all. A great cast playing likable characters amid great special effects.
Tense, cheesy, and reliably fun. Not groundbreaking, but a classic disaster flick that still entertains.
This isn’t a great movie – maybe not even a good one – but it’s undeniably entertaining. A predictable disaster movie in an enjoyable way.
Perhaps one of the hokiest disaster movies ever made. If clichés were peanuts, the script would be a bag of trail mix.
