Volcano has always been one of my favourite disaster films. Although I can understand why some people feel the way they do about Volcano, they're all seem to be forgetting one thing. It's only a film. It doesn't try to be one of those movies based on things that could potentially happen. It doesn't try to do anything other than entertain you. Is Volcano really the first film to feature an event that we know in real life is very unlikely next to very much impossible from happening? Far from it. It's called fictional storytelling.
As much as I do find the subject of Volacanoes interesting, I genuinely have no idea on the chances of a volcano forming underneath the ground unbeknownst to anybody's knowledge before it's too late. But if 2020 is one year to go by...
And you can look at it this way, the film is set in Los Angeles. At least they picked a city that does in fact suffer a lot of natural things happening such as earthquakes.
But anyway, I enjoy Volcano and I'm sure many of you will too. Although not the first film about a volcano, at least the story and circumstances make it original. An entertaining film with some intense moments that will keep you on edge. And that's all you should view it as. Plus, you've got Tommy Lee Jones, what more could you want? Trust me, there's much worse volcano movies out there. And no, I'm not referring to Dante's Peak.
