DANTE'S PEAK: 7
Actually a better first half than second. The pre-disaster plot
moved along fairly well although a few more seismology facts and
explanations would have made it more interesting for me. Once the
disaster started, it adopted the same disaster movie plot that
has been done too many times, actually managing to drag out the
number of impossible escapes by the stars a couple too many times
for my taste. A few occasional laughs and smiles. Some very good
special effects that would probably not be the same unless viewed
on the big screen.
