Without warning, day becomes night; air turns to fire, and solid ground melts beneath white-hot lava. From Director Roger Donaldson comes an adrenaline-pumping adventure starring Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton. Welcome to the town of Dante's Peak, where a long-dormant volcano is about to erupt with devastating force. Who will survive when the inferno unleashes its fury? The answer will leave you breathless, and the special effects will blow you away! The first of 1997's volcano disaster movies (the second being Volcano ) was arguably the better of the two, but both of them made for passable entertainment with some spectacular special effects to serve as icing on the stale cake. After all, Dante's Peak doesn't pretend to be anything more than an updated variation on a whole catalog of disaster movie clichés. Despite all that, it's reasonably enjoyable. It's an added bonus that the script is just smart enough to allow Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton to play their roles with straight faces, never condescending to the audience of the formulaic story. He's a volcano expert from the U.S. Geological Survey, and she's the mayor of a cozy Washington State town perched beneath a volcano that's about to blow. Telltale signs are everywhere, so evacuation must be carried out immediately. Of course, not everybody's eager to leave, and even some of Brosnan's colleagues think his alarm is premature. This sets the stage for massive ash clouds, rivers of raging mud and molten rock, flattened forests, and death-defying escapes by Brosnan, Hamilton, and some (but not all) of her family, friends, and townsfolk. So what if it's all pretty flaky... and can a four-wheel-drive vehicle travel over fire and molten lava without bursting its tires? Don't ask too many questions, and you'll find Dante's Peak to be (if you'll pardon the pun) a total blast. The Collector's Edition DVD includes a documentary about volcanoes, Getting Close to the Show , in addition to behind-the-scenes footage, exclusive coverage of the creation of special effects, and audio commentary with director Roger Donaldson. --Jeff Shannon Review: GREAT COMFORT MOVIE!!! - I've watched this movie so many times.

Pierce and Sarah
Good ol' Pierce Brosnan is at it again in this volcanic adventure. Picture this, small mountain town tucked away at the base of an "inactive" volcano, a small town mayor that is not Sarah Connor, a snarky ex-mother-in-law that thinks she knows everything, two children that put their brains on hold and a boss that doesn't trust his lead employee's instincts. What could go wrong you ask. Just a minor hiccup when the volcano decides to give the town, the residents and the USGS team sent to "check it out" a wake up call. I'm sure you can see where this is going. Well acted. Great photography and special effects and quite well directed. While it's not necessarily a nail biter, it is a good way to spend a couple of hours. P.S. Despite it all, there is a happy ending (be still my elated heart.)

Kino Lorbor provides the updated Dolby Atmos sound format.
This KL 4K disc carries a Dolby Atmos sound track CONTRARY to the Amazon disc specs. There have been a bunch of premature video reviews criticizing KL for not having that sound format. But it does and it also carries an Isolated film Score! For those soundtrack enthusiasts. An outstanding release with a beautiful film transfer. Way to go KL.

Good quality disaster movie
Compared to a lot of disaster movies of the day, this one is really well-made. Obviously the graphics don’t compare to a 2025 blockbuster, but it’s fun and compelling and has a pretty good plot all things considered. I will say, it’s probably not for young kids - there are a couple of gruesome scenes that disturbed me when I was younger. But this is a nice fun movie.
