"An Inconvenient Truth"

Former Vice-President Al Gore presents a eye opening and compelling view of the future of our planet and our civilization in the MUST SEE documentary of the year. This is a wake up call that cuts through myths and misconceptions to deliver the message that global warning is a real and present danger.

“An Inconvenient Truth” brings home Gore’s persuasive argument that we must act now to save the earth. Each and every one of us can make changes in the ways in which we live our lives and BECOME PART OF THE SOLUTION.

"An Inconvenient Truth" is a film that everyone should have seen. It very well maybe the catalyst for the popularity of “Going Green”. Everyone is “green” about something but what Mr. Gore has talked about has been know for years.

What surprises me is that now when were at the critic everyone wants change; when gas gets to be 5 dollars a gallon now everyone wants change. Why did it take over twenty years for people to finally listen and take notice to the damage the world is facing. It’s a world we are inheriting from our parents and grandparents.

"An Inconvenient Truth" is just that. It’s the truth that was too inconvenient for our parents and grandparent to listen too. What is great about this film is that with all the scientific information given Mr. Gore still paints a picture of hope.

It’s that hope that has driven our generation to makes changes and hope that the sins of our parent can be fixed but us. It’s about making little changes that will lead to bigger changes. Even the littlest of changes can affect our odds of survival. When drought is facing the southeast, fires to the west, and floods in middle of the United States, these are just a few examples of the world crying out for help.

I give it 5/5 Gs.

“Dave Chappelle’s Block Party” is documentery of him putting together this block party. It follows Dave Chapelle across the country giving out tickets, meeting the neighborhood, and setting up his all-star free block party in New York.

This film is part sketch comedy, party musical concert, and all brilliance; Dave Chapelle puts together one of the best films of 2005. It’s Dave being Dave and giving back to the community. It has the funny, brilliance, comedy found on his show but in every day life meeting everyday people.

He put together some of the best musicians of the hip-hop community; he even got ‘The Fugees’ to reunite after seven years, to perform some of their hits. Even though, you weren’t there you still fill the vibe and you realize just how powerful it must have been to be there live. It features some of the best music and it makes you wish that you were actually there.

DC’s Block Party is right up there with best comedy concert DVD. I want to say thank you to Dave Chapelle for film this journey. It was a experience that I am glad I had and wished that I could have been there live. I can say nobody throws a block party like Dave Chapelle. The party was truly over there.

I give it 5/5 Gs.
