Title: "Everybody's the Same!"
Review: This movie is horrible. Mediocre action flick at best- and what totally kills it is the forced morals it beats over your head. Movies like this do not need to have Rodney King references and other social issues: it's a brainless action flick. I have no problem with films that explore social issues- Spike Lee has had some thought provoking films, and "Crash" was an excellent example. However, movies like "Volcano" are so silly and so over the top that at the end of the movie all of our social ills are solved because everyone is covered in volcanic ash? When the little kid smiles and says "Everybody's the same" and the mushy music starts playing- this is pure Hollywood at its worst. This movie has little to recommend it to begin with- as action/ disaster flicks go, it's very mediocre to begin with. Throw in the contrived, cornball "moral" element, this is a god- awful movie. This movie is good for one thing: inducing vomitting.
