Actor Leonardo DiCaprio meets with scientists, activists and world leaders to give us a look at how climate change affects our environment and what society can do prevent the demise of endangered species, ecosystems and native communities across the planet.
This is well-researched, clearly articulated, and quite frankly terrifying stuff. Before the Flood makes you want to slap people in the face with your knowledge.
The first half of the film states the climate change problem, the second half lists solutions, including dietary choices like eating less beef. Because of the solutions listed in the film, it isn't as depressing as it otherwise would be.
"Before the Flood" may not tackle too much new ground, but given the sincerity of its message, its ability to assemble such a watchable and comprehensive account gives it an undeniable urgency.
This is one of many documentaries about climate change; many aren't much fun, but with DiCaprio at its center, this one offers crucial, current information, as well as a measure of hope.
This film promises early on to set itself apart by detailing specific things individuals can do to mitigate the environmental damage, but those suggestions end up being disappointingly few.
