Dante's Peak
review
Synopsis
Harry Dalton (Pierce Brosnan), a volcanologist who comes to investigate Dante's Peak, a dormant volcano that is said to have an extremely high possibility of earthquakes, discovers signs of an eruption. Harry complains that if things continue like this, the entire town could be engulfed by lava, but his fellow researchers don't believe him, so he talks directly to the mayor, Rachel (Linda Hamilton). Just as Harry is about to explain, a large earthquake hits the town, causing the townspeople to panic and flee. When I went outside and looked up at Dante's Peak, I saw gray smoke rising high from the top.
