Goofs:
Factual errors: When Gore shows the slide of the ice core graph at the beginning of the movie (about 20 minutes in), the numbers on the y-axis are wrong - the average is at 0.5, and the negative numbers are flipped. This graph is correct in the book; the slide is wrong and therefore misleading.

Quotes:
[first lines]
Al Gore: You look at that river gently flowing by. You notice the leaves rustling with the wind. You hear the birds; you hear the tree frogs. In the distance you hear a cow. You feel the grass. The mud gives a little bit on the river bank. It's quiet; it's peaceful. And all of a sudden, it's a gear shift inside you. And it's like taking a deep breath and going, "Oh yeah, I forgot about this."

Clearly, the negative reviews on here are by people who have not seen it. It's actually quite good...even entertaining. Sprinkled between the charts and graphs are moments of humor and emotion. As with any documentary, not every fact is cited and backed up, etc., but I've seen nothing to indicate anything there is not factual. And that's after reading the negative reviews on this site... :) Anyway, I highly recommend seeing this movie. Even if you don't agree with the premise, it's a matter of being informed. Listen to the "other side" as much as you listen to "your side"...and you can form educated opinions.
So Democrats...go. Because you should and you'll enjoy it.
And Republicans...go. Because you should and you'll enjoy being close-minded about it.
And Independents...go. Because you should, and you'll be open-minded enough to be SHOCKED at what a different human being Al Gore is now from 2000. Remember, this is a man (who is displaying remarkable passion about global-warming) who said in a 2000 debate, "Ultimately, this is about priorities, and I want to be your EDUCATION President."
