An average movie

I actually saw this movie before and, to be honest, the first time around, I thought the whole thing was just terrible. Indeed, back then, I was pretty sure it was one of the worst movies I had ever seen. However, since I kept hearing that it wasn’t so bad after all, I decided to check it out again. Well, eventually, I have to admit it, it was actually slightly better than I remembered. I mean, obviously, the story was very often seriously preposterous but it's obviously something inherent to this genre and, at least, they tried to keep a scientific approach as much as possible. Back then in 1997, for some reasons, they decided to release 2 different movies dealing with volcanoes, and even though ‘Volcano’ was actually less successful at the box-office, I actually preferred ‘Volcano’. Indeed,  this other movie about the same subject was in fact even more preposterous but I thought it was actually more fun. Still, there is no doubt that both movies were actually rather lame. Anyway, to conclude, this movie was still nothing great and I don’t think it is really worth a look but if you are die-hard fan of the genre maybe you might end up actually enjoying it more than I did.
