“Ten years after An Inconvenient Truth, Al Gore brings the news on climate change again in a doc that’s anything but hot air… a winning and impassioned, stirring and proudly wonkish follow-up.”
–Owen Gleiberman, Variety
“Sequel plays like a taut political thriller with an apocalyptic streak, interlacing heart-stopping cinematography, adrenalized music cues and a dashing main character — Al Gore 3.0 — that you’ll wish had been president for oh, about eight years or so.”
–Josh Dickey, Mashable
“Stirringly crafted follow-up that measures the progress that has and hasn’t been made in the battle against global warming.”
–Justin Chang, Los Angeles Times
“A reboot that justifies its existence.”
–Ben Kenigsberg, New York Times (Critic’s Pick)
“Sequel is surprising, vital, fascinating, edifying and absolutely crucial viewing for all of us who plan to continue inhabiting this planet for a while.”
–Katie Walsh, Chicago Tribune
“Unfolds like a white-knuckle episode of House of Cards.”
–Chris Nashawaty, Entertainment Weekly
A decade after An Inconvenient Truth brought climate change into the heart of popular culture comes the riveting follow-up that shows just how close we are to a real energy revolution. Vice President Al Gore continues his tireless fight, traveling around the world training an army of climate champions and influencing international climate policy. Cameras follow him behind the scenes—in moments private and public, funny and poignant—as he pursues the empowering notion that while the stakes have never been higher, the perils of climate change can be overcome with human ingenuity and passion. What started then as a profound slide show lecture has become a gorgeously cinematic excursion in An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power.
