Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
... View MoreI didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
... View MoreIt's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
... View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
... View MoreUnfortunately the entire field of climate change has been hijacked by those with undermining political aspirations as well as those who simply want to cash in on the alarmism created by Hollywood and the mass media. In contrast to the constant flood of political and unscientific claims designed specifically to separate you from your money, this movie looks at the real science behind our ongoing climate change and attempts to briefly explain what has happened and what is likely to happen (climate-wise) in our future. Among other clarifications, the movie points out that the claim of what 97% of the scientists supposedly believe is a total fabrication based on very poor and misleading research. Numerous scientists including those from within the IPCC and NASA are interviewed to give their opinions and reasoning on the claimed catastrophic anthropogenic climate warming, which has undergone numerous name changes in reaction to their previous predictions being demonstrated to be nearly 100 percent wrong. Although the field is extensive and still being explored, Climate Hustle attempts to summarize and draw the main features of what we know so far together and present the facts in a manner which will inform but not overwhelm the viewer. In short, our climate future looks good. However, if those pushing the political man-made warming agenda have their way, our financial future will not be as bright. As an interesting overview, Climate Hustle has done an amazing job.
... View MoreAny true scientist will tell you that in science the book is never closed on any issue, and that includes the THEORY of man-made global warming. Politicians, dictators and their flunkies in The Establishment Press are the ones who close books. In today's political climate (no pun intended) the pro-Globalist elite try to keep the books closed by enforcing the unwritten but very real regulations on behavior and thought control that are collectively known as The Rules of Politically Correctness. In doing so they are employing the same method used in Leftist one-party states such as North Korea, Cuba and California. Galileo and Copernicus are just two of the many people who were made to suffer for daring to think outside of the box and disregarding the PC rules of their day. Furthermore, reasonable certainly in the field of science is never attained by consensus. Virtually one hundred percent of "scientists" once believed that the world is flat and people like Copernicus and Galileo were made to suffer for taking exception to the orthodox view.
... View MoreI saw Climate Hustle today and went in as someone without a specific opinion on the topic. I am not a scientist nor is anyone I know. To date, any info I have about climate change came from the electronic box in my living room, the one I'm typing on now or the many "fervent believers" I know, who are not scientists either. (But boy, they've got religion!)However, I have been on the front lines of business (which means: sales, marketing and business owner) for 35 years so I can smell a questionable pitch from a mile away. Which doesn't mean the pitch is bull, it means it's questionable.What has always troubled me about the climate change topic is: -- a) It came about SO quickly and with such desperately urgent action requested = Flag #1 -- b) The primary worldwide spokesperson is a politician = Flag #2 -- c) This former politician (and many other vocal proponents) has made enormous sums of money off the subject he's pitching so ardently = Flag #3 -- d) There is too much supposed consensus on a subject so complex AND a lack of open discussion and debate = Flag #4Okay people, never mind what the topic is -- if you're an adult, who thinks, then those first 3 items related to any pitch should give you a mighty pause.Regarding the movie: if you consider it as another part of your information gathering regarding this complicated topic then you'll learn some things. I didn't love the attempts to entertain and amuse but understand why the film maker felt the need (in America, most have to be entertained in order to get their attention) nor some of the choppy editing. Rather I would have enjoyed more in-depth interviews with some of the important scientists featured. But, their points were made and I was much relieved to witness that there are still some people in this world who will openly reverse course when they realize their initial viewpoint was wrong or inadequately supported. Those are courageous people.I felt the taped panel discussion at the end added to the effort. Whereas, I wouldn't have chosen Sarah Palin to be on it (she may have value to add but articulation is simply NOT her thing), I guess she provided some notoriety. The other two were the film maker and a climatologist and they offered worthy information.The movie is worth your time as food for thought and a counterpoint to all of the one-sided info coming our way in the mainstream media.
... View MoreThis is the first time I have ever seen IMDb attack the source of a movie. Certainly it's not common other than being common practice to attack those who disagree with the man made climate change scare.The whole climate change movement was once called global warming until that title was losing ground. (Hard to argue that climate changes, it changes every day, throughout year and throughout the centuries.) Why does the man made climate change panic need to be politically protected? Real science accepts challenge and offers the ability to recreate data. There have been deleted email, limits to the years viewed, black balling legitimate scientists that disagree and more.From a personal view, I can't be the only one who remembers the global cooling, pending ice age scare from a few decades back.Follow the money, lots of people getting rich and powerful by pushing this.Hoping to see this. Locally appearing one day with one showing.
