"The 11th Hour" also opens at Matt Smith's Market Street Cinema.  I linked to a review from Rob Fisher in this week's Arkansas Times from my other blogManohla Dargis of The New York Times writes that the film is "an unnerving, surprisingly affecting documentary about our environmental calamity, is such essential viewing. It may not change your life, but it may inspire you to recycle that old slogan-button your folks pinned on their dashikis back in the day: If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem." 

Judith Lewis of LA Weekly agrees, "The 11th Hour is ultimately a triumph of redemptive ideas that DiCaprio ­— God bless his celebrity — may finally succeed in transporting from the environmental fringe to the mainstream moviegoing audience."
