Volcano (1997)


Genre: Thriller
Directed by: Mick Jackson
Starring: Tommy Lee Jones, Anne Heche, Don Cheadle
Running time: 104 minutes



When an impromptu volcano erupts underneath Los Angeles, Mike Roark, the director of the city’s Office of Emergency Measures, has to find a way to divert the massive flow of dangerous lava, all the while worrying about the safety of his teenage daughter. Roark gets some assistance from geologist and seismologist Amy Barnes.

This is your run-of-the-mill generic disaster movie where the end seems dire, but you never really doubt that someone will same the day. Most of the acting is good, except for Anne Heche, who felt widely out of place in there. Not a bad movie, just nothing special.
