Supervolcano was released in 2005 on BBC as a TV movie. It follows Rick Lieberman, a USGS Scientist whom is stationed at Yellowstone National Park. Basically, Lieberman suspects that the volcano beneath Yellowstone is due for an eruption. However, politics come into play, when the Governor’s office refuses to release this information to the public. Lieberman is correct and the volcano does erupt, sending the greater United States into panic.
The movie is actually watchable for being made for TV. It’s action is top-notch. The science in the film is right on the money, and very believable. The acting was superb given the characters that they had to work with. Definitely one of BBCs finer works. It’s, without a doubt, wiggled it’s way onto my favorite disaster movie list, alongside Dante’s Peak and Hard Rain.
I’m giving this one a 8 out of 10 with KUDOS to the BBC and all the cast and crew for their work on this film.
