Where to Watch Volcano
- Julie Jones12 januari 2026VOLCANO is a very suspenseful, nail biting, and action packed thrill ride. Everybody needs to see this movie to learn about Volcanoes! When you see it, buckle up and hold on tight for a ride of pure thrills and laughs. recommend to anyone that just wants to be blow away by action.
- Zokkiie7 dgn geledenNot gonna lie, this is a pretty dumb movie... but it's the fun kind of dumb. The concept is ridiculous, the science is all over the place, and some of the dialogue is pure cheese, yet I was entertained the whole time. The movie keeps things moving, the disaster scenes are enjoyable, and there's enough destruction to keep fans of the genre happy. The characters aren't especially memorable, and it never reaches the tension of the best disaster films, but it's an easy watch. Nothing special, just a solid popcorn movie when you're in the mood for some old-school disaster chaos.
- ርልዪረ25 februari 2026🌋I loved the 90's resurgence of the Disaster movie that was cemented as a Genre back in the 1970's but like a Volcano that genre laid dormant for a long time until the 90's exploded with huge, big budget Disaster films with the likes of VOLCANO, DANTE'S PEAK, TWISTER, INDEPENDENCE DAY, DEEP IMPACT, ARMAGEDDON, DAYLIGHT & even JURASSIC PARK could be considered a Disaster movie!!! There's probably more that i haven't mentioned but those were the "Big Ones" & i consider Dante's Peak & Volcano the very best of the bunch. I've always been a big Tommy Lee Jones fan after The Fugitive & Men In Black & U.S Marshalls, Batman Forever, Under Seige, among others as the 90's were his glory days as a star & here he gets his own big budget summertime Blockbuster with his name written big above the title on the poster, this is his film & he's the main star lead of the whole damn thing & he's excellent as our rugged hero lead as he runs about Los Angeles trying to rescue everyone & save the city from a big erupted Volcano spilling out a river of scorching hot lava, Tommy is great & i love his voice & his smart authoritative manner & he puts it all to good use here. There's a nice ensemble cast to round out the supporting characters with Anne Heche, Gaby Hoffman, Don Cheadle & Keith David. I totally love the Thrilling & exciting music score by the legendary ALAN SILVESTRI (Predator 1&2, Judgment Night, Death Becomes Her, Back to the Future & so many more) & the look of the sticky hot summertime LA is captured beautifully on screen & i loved the opening of the movie just showing LA in the morning with everyone going about their day as usual & busyness of it all with not knowing what's growing under the famous city, it's just an exciting & lovely 90's opening especially with the music. The special effects still hold up beautifully & the production design is perfect for a Disaster movie & the most important thing for this big budget popcorn movie is it's simply FUN & full of entertainment. As the City of Angeles starts to crumble & the lava flows through the streets we follow Tommy Lee Jones on his mission to save it all if he can & it's a thrilling & fun experience, i love 90's movies. My favourite Tommy Lee Jones "Vehicle" movie
