Ring of Fire - IMAX [DVD]

Great presentation about volcanoes. Not the most educational, but wonderful dramatic footage that I haven't seen in other volcano specials. And (spoiler alert) you can't be Japanese drummers for matching music to the power of a volcano.

Educational...well photographed and researched

Our daughter loves this movie. Even if it is from the early nineties or whatever. She gets totally engrossed in it. The footage is great for the period in which it was made, so if you can get past those things you'll love it.

Though somewhat dated, a good starting point for people who want to know why the Earth erupts, sometimes catastrophically. Not overly long but still fascinating even for folks who might not yet know what Volcanology is.

I love volcano documentaries. This was interesting, though dated. The narration was not the best (like David Attenborough) but satisfactory. Lots of great video.

I bought this for my friends young son who wants to be a Volcanologist. He and his little sister loved it.

Purchased for an elementary gifted unit. Arrived on time and met buyers expectations. My students enjoyed this movie.

A very personal view of what it is like to live in the shadow of a volcano. Does not dwell on video of eruptions but on the effects on personal lives and lifestyles.

I enjoyed this 40 min ALL REGIONS DVD and presume that anyone interested in volcanoes and earthquakes would find this both interesting and enjoyable but if not I think you would love it or hate it. Like one of the reviewers I have many IMAX DVDS and class this one amongst the best for factual information. The camera work cannot be faulted when it takes you to the birth of a new volcano in Chile and relive history with rare and spectacular images of the infamous 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. It also marches with the inhabitants of Sakurajima, Japan, as they participate in their annual evacuation drill and witness one of the frequent ash eruptions of this very active volcano. A computer animation sequence gives us a ride through the centre of the earth to see the process of the geological forces that cause a volcanic eruption or earthquake. The devastating results of these forces are witnessed through the scenes of the 1989 earthquake that rocked the city of San Francisco.
