Project Task 4 " An Inconvenient Truth"

An Inconvenient truth is a movie which discuses the issue of global warming. Mr. Al Gore explained the main problem of global warming and he sent a message to whole nation to increase the awareness of the people around the world. However, some people agree with the Al Gore’s movie and the others disagree. This essay will discuss two different reviews about the movie the
positive review and the negative review and my opinion.

A.O Scott who is a writer for the NY Times disagrees with Al Gore’s movie. He said that the movie is not only about the climate change but it is also about Mr. Gore. He thinks that the movie made to present Al Gore as humor speaker. He mentioned that Al Gore tried to make the presentation funny instead of discussing the climate change seriously (Scott, 2006). In order to that, he thinks that the people will not take al gore’s movie seriously. He commentated on the images and visual aids. He said images are stark and the visual aids are a little old.

Roger Ebert is one of the people who have a positive review about the movie. The global warming is true and people activity is the main cause of it (Ebert, 2006). He suggests that governments should take action immediately to reduce the effect of global warming and before the planet reach a tipping point. He said that all the information which mentioned in the movie are scientific such as receding ice and rise the temperatures.

In my opinion, the movie was interesting because it discussed a real issue in humorous way which attracts people to understand. I think that it helped people to learn more about global warming and what had happen due to it. The movie increased the awareness and the people will begin to think how to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions. Ultimately, I strongly agree with Elbert’s review and with Al Gore movie
