Interesting documentary with live-footage!

The first time I saw this movie I was in Castle Rock, WA. I was in the theatre with the rumbling seats. After seeing this movie it was an even more interesting trip to the actual place where it all happened... 'Mount Saint Helens National Volcanic Monument' is a very interesting and impressive daytrip you'd defenitely visit when you're in the Northwest. Leave I-5 at Castle Rock and first go see the movie... it'll show you the history of all what happened back in 1980.

This time it's personal

Another good volcano movie. There's plenty of them around

Excellent footage of lava, but...

There are two documentaries on the DVD. The first is an IMAX film that describes the eruptions and show lots of footage of spewing ash, but it's quite shallow in its description. I watched it at home, so I didn't get the IMAX experience. I'm sure I would have liked it better in the proper theater (ie, the Science Museum in St. Paul, MN), but it was rather weak. The other documentary is simply 25 minutes of spewing, oozing, bubbling lava, and it's beautiful. It makes a rental worthwhile.

Pretty pictures, few facts

I'm surprised that the film won a short-documentary Oscar - it's so light on facts that it could have been a photo-essay - or maybe that's what it was. Lots of really lovely views of the mountain and the ashfalls and the devastation, but no real explanation of why it happened, how far it affected things, what the end results were. I like my documentaries to have facts, which is why I voted this one low.

One of the best Imax-films

The eruption of Mount St. Helens. Sunday May 18th, 1980.

Years before during and and after the eruption the surroundings (up to 30 miles)are filmed. Breathtaking views of the eruption. With the neighbor away, set the output level higher then normal, en find yourself in the middle of one of natures greatest powers! One of America's greatest nature-disasters.

An out-of-earth landscape is formed, but within ten years already a livable place.

Filmed by rescue-helicopters. This film was nominated for an Oscar in the category Best Short Documentairs.

My favorite Imax-film.
