Critics Consensus

An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power makes a plea for environmental responsibility that adds a persuasive -- albeit arguably less impactful -- coda to its acclaimed predecessor.

Through India, the film also addresses the developing-versus-developed-world debate over carbon emission and energy issues.

This is essentially a training video, calling viewers to activism with the slogan: 'If our leaders refuse to lead, our citizens will.' If we could only plug our grid into Gore, we'd have an inexhaustible supply of renewable energy.

Rated: 3/5

Whether one agrees with Gore's assessment -- that businesses, local government and individuals can work towards the emission targets set in Paris regardless -- there's no doubting his sincerity and passion.

Rated: 4/5

There's no question that the film has an agenda, but it's an agenda that Christians can get behind, especially after Pope Francis issued Laudato Si in early 2015.

Director Bonnie Cohen and Jon Shenk do an impressive job, making a sequel that continues to prove that climate change is the most important matter that all humans must make a priority.

Third Coast Review

I still recommend you check it out, since Al Gore is a fantastic spokesperson for the cause, but the film is a fairly artless endeavor with an admittedly solid, significant message.

Another one, it basically is repeated the same stuff as the first. Watch the first, not this.

informative on this global issue as it is a great follow-up in this sequel 10 years later to see what's being done on global warming. Interestingly not much has changed except the world situation is worsening and we still do nothing

Actually an update rather than a sequel to the first documentary draws a more depressing and hopeless picture of what can be done to confront the climate change, despite its efforts not to appear so.

Another punch to the face doc that documents the event after the first film blended with more informative moments similar to the first one. A great sequel that I would say is about as important as the first one
