1216.0. "Dante's Peak" by POLAR::TYSICK (Chasing the tail of Dogma) Wed Feb 19 1997 09:22

    Saw this last night and it was OK.
    
    	If you saw "Twister" you pretty much saw "Dante's Peak", but with 
    lava!  The story wasn't anything special.  The F/X were great at times
    and weak at others (mostly the minirature scale type stuff).  There
    were the traditional Hero's, characters who don't listen and pay for it
    later on, the dog everyone loves and the coffee drinking comedic
    sidekick.  All in all, decent entertainment, but save it for a cheap
    seat night or video rental.
    
    	2.5 outta 5

    Spoilers:
    
    	The best part is when he (Pierce) takes his 4wd truck through a
    river and people in their cars (and in a panic) attempt to cross as well!
    Not gonna happen!
