Volcano (1997) - It is a brilliant 90's version of a classic 50's disaster flick. One thing after another, never letting up, and all of so catastrophic as to defy belief; and yet suspension of disbelief is maintained. It is quite possibly the most 90's movie ever made. The writing is solid, there's very little cringe, and the practical effects are amazing. This movie would look completely different if made today, and would probably suck.
