December 14, 2008This movie is a documentary of the change in our world and the consequences of the industrial revolution on our environment. There are detailed accounts from experts in the field. It is also narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, who brings the 11th hour to light. It's not too late to ch...( read more)

July 26, 2008Interesting documentary that works as a motivational channel for environmental awakening. It does miss the point, however and Leonardo DiCaprio's narration is nothing but advertising. Motivational but not motivational enough to convince lackadaisical people.
-
May 26, 2008Interesting plea for action to combat a global catastrophe, with a range of talking heads and fronted by DiCaprio. It is less manipulative than 'An Inconvenient Truth' and more philosophical but the interesting graphics are spoiled by being shown too quickly to take in all the in...( read more)

May 20, 2008great, great, great documentary. Total eye opener. So sad to see just how we got here and as of lately just how fast. I wish more people would do their part. believe it or not just by recycling everything that possible we all can make a difference already. What would have made th...( read more)

May 13, 2008A pretty straight forward documentary on global warming. Following in the footsteps of "An Inconvenient Truth," this also hits on a lot of the same points. The 11th Hour however, doesn't seemed to be as organized and easy to follow as Gore's documentary. It's an endless parade...( read more)

July 23, 2009I highly recommend this because it explains our current climate challenges as stemming from a leadership crisis. We need a change! (Served as my introduction to Sigur Ròs.)

Consistent with the film's occasionally hippy-dippy tone, DiCaprio speaks about human beings engaging in a willed 'evolution in consciousness,' which sounds a little too desperate to be comforting. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
This movie, for all its noble intentions, is a bore. Rent An Inconvenient Truth instead. Even if you've already seen it. full review

Kyle Smith, New York Post
Unusually undisguised leftism. The scare montages are--I'm not making this up--very similar to one shown in last year's remake of The Omen. full review

The 11th Hour, directed and written by Leila Conners Petersen and Nadia Conners, mixes in enough hard science to make the Deepak Chopra New Age flummery less easy to snicker at. full review

Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
May be a kindred spirit to An Inconvenient Truth, but in terms of style, tone, and scope, this Leonardo DiCaprio-produced and narrated documentary on climate change is a wholly different beast. full review

September 16, 2008This is an excellent documentary film and Leonardo Dicaprio is my favorite actor. I think Leo shows good examples that our earth needs our help.
Now for some people who make bad comments on this movie, you have no sense of a billygoat and you guys are nothing but idiots and you guys are nothing but cold, black hearted people. If some of you don't care about nature, then you act like Bush, McCain, and Palin. -
