- Critics' reviews
-
-
"The story combines with an actual script to make Volcano a smart, self-aware, and most of all fun disaster movie."
-
"[It's] faithful to Hollywood's legendary lack of originality."
-
"This is one of the best pure disaster movies ever made (not that it has much competition)."
-
"I had a pretty good time at Volcano. The reason I didn't have a better time is that the characters aren't just schlocky, they're boring"
