There was a period during the mid to late 1990s where disaster movies seemed to come in pairs.
In reverse release date order: Armageddon and Deep Impact. Or Volcano and Dante's Peak (this one), aka the one in which James Bond helps the future mother of the saviour of mankind (sorry, sorry: Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton) rescue her kids from an exploding volcano after they go up said mountain for plot reasons.
A pretty standard by-the-numbers disaster movie, then, with the expected pyrotechnics, clunky dialogue and, yep, even the town meeting where the inhabitants refuse to listen..
