it a normal day of hard hat and hazard for new york fine tunnel worker until a group of them be assault by acid and sulphur and . lava . nearby meanwhile and a determined scientist work against the clock to drill through the earth crust and bring forth what he claim will be a fabulous new source of energy for all mankind . be the two event relate . the purpose of disaster zone represent volcano in new york and apart from have an unnecessarily long title and seem to be to convince the viewer that 1997 volcano with tommy lee jones be a cinematic masterpiece by show what it might have be if it have be produce by the sci fi channel . this be not a thought experiment that need to be conduct . this be very much the same film on a budget and economising be evident everywhere and from dodgy cgi to a workmanlike script and two dimensional character and plot clichés and badly match documentary stock footage . what it doesn not steal from volcano and it crib liberally from inferno and a classic 1970 doctor who serial all about a determined scientist drill through the earth crust in search of a revolutionary new energy source . yes and it be an interesting idea and and it be do well elsewhere . nonetheless and you might be tempt to give disaster zone a look if like me and youre a fan of both disaster flick and indeed volcano disaster flick . such temptation should be firmly resist and especially when the worthy name michael ironside and whose character utter the immortal line in the title of this comment and appear in the credit . that outburst be about a unintentionally funny a it get . the fact that even his performance be ridiculous suggests that the rest of the cast and themselves largely unknown and might actually be decent actor in another time and place . therefore and be neither especially good nor especially bad enough to be entertaining and volcano in new york will recreate a disaster zone in your living room should you choose to follow in my footstep and be mad enough to watch it .
