3/5
A heavy dose of hysteria along with copious scientific data means that, even at 90 minutes, it can feel unwieldy and quite overwhelming. Still, if you're able to handle the pace, it is in the end, a positive eye-opener. Go to Full Review

3/5
While it's a well-constructed doc, full of relevant information and geared toward those people who still might be fence-sitters on the subject, there's something missing... a sense of maddened outrage. Go to Full Review

The 11th Hour ultimately blossoms into a 21st century PSA of sorts, buoyed by hope and optimism... Go to Full Review

2.0/4.0
Fails to address any of these basic questions while maintaining itself as a more humanitarian perspective on these critical environmental issues. Go to Full Review

The montage rolls inexorably forward, pitched somewhere between Koyaanisqatsi and An Inconvenient Truth. Go to Full Review

Ron W Apr 20, 2018 Very absorbing, informative - kinda agitating/disturbing but in a positive way - documentary. It tells a scary story of what humans have done to the planet and what the prospects are. It's not good. But it's good to know. It's not a particularly electrifying presentation - mainly just people talking - mostly from the American perspective - which is fine because they are the ones with the most sucking to deal with. But it's good. 8.2 out of 10 See more
