i saw it.
the powerpoint presentation comment is basically true. because the entire film is him giving the presentation to several glossy college audiences around the country. he doesn't hide it though, he talks alot about how he's down 1000's of them throughout the world, so naturally they show him around the world too. as far as information goes and the overall presentation, it's not that bad, powerful facts, well approached, coherent dialouge etc. You can see where law school helps with shaping powerful politicians.
What drags on the film and hurts it is that at times, is Gore coming with a somewhat egotistic suave that trys to hard to make the viewer form a personal attactment with him (talking about his son hit by a car, working the farm as a kid, shit like that).
On the poster it says, "The Most Terrifying Movie You'll Ever See", on some levels, it's true, but overall it fails dramatically (what a shock) simply because they steered clear of tapping into the countless apocalyptic scenarios that could happen. Instead he talks about Manhattan and Florida getting flooded and how the bark beetle is causing forest fires. I felt they should rolled with that a little more, but most likely they didn't because they didn't want the debunkers coming back with claims of scare tactic propaganda or whatever.
watch it though, make up your own mind.
