Dante's Peak - 3 1/2 stars out of 5 stars

This may not be a great "disaster"film but it's one of a very view and perhaps the best,of the volcanic type.Released in 1997 and running 108 minutes,its weakness is it takes awhile to get started and its science is questionable,ah but the acting is fine and the setting is rural rather than the run of the mill urban settings of this genre.So I had to take off 1 and 1/2 stars but still highly recommend for a good storying line that has you care for the characters and that is always key in these films.Plus I do love me some Linda Hamilton.Trailer URL follows the pix and a IMDB summary below.Gets some pop corn and enjoy a fine take on what may be in our future and closer than we think.

A vulcanologist arrives at a countryside named Dante's Peak after a long dormant volcano, which has recently been named the second most desirable place to live in America, and discovers that Dante's Peak, may wake up at any moment.
