Audience Member This was interesting for the time they are walking through the deserted town seeing the leftovers from the very rushed evacuation. The building tension as they (insanely?) climb towards the mountain that is due to erupt at any time kept things going well also. Talking with the men they came across who chose not to leave just reminded me of the outright foolishness and even meathead quality of a great percentage of human beings. Passably interesting with Herzog's narration a guide to their experience. 2.8 stars Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member One documentary that has perhaps the most questionable purpose in all of documentary-hood. Why is it that at the moment of a volcano's impending eruption would a filmmaker attempt to film it up close and in person? Herzog seems to be the only man in the universe that would pull off such an endeavor. The documentary treads along the very question of facing death but keeps its viewers buzzed over its purpose. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member "A report on an inevitable catastrophe that did not take place." You know 'Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe'? Well this is Werner Herzog walks up a volcano. It is the perfect setting for Herzog's work- an abandoned (for the most part) town with the constant threat of death prevalent- because happy filmmaking just don't taste good enough. It is too short and doesn't delve as deep as some of Herzog's later works nor does it have quite the same fascination in its nature but it feels like a typical Herzog doc. if there can be such a thing and that doesn't make it typical at all. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Another Herzog triumph Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Volcano about to blow and Herzog turns up with a crew to shoot it and it doesn't quite go to plan. Some haunting imagery of the empty streets and a couple of interesting characters waiting to die (the volcano never erupted) and the crew nearly get gassed in the process. Not one of his best efforts, but certainly one for completists like me. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member i could listen to werner herzog speak all day long.
