GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.
Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) Very simple: Do not climb it. This is a 45-minute IMAX film from almost 20 years ago about a group of mountain climbers who have the goal to reach the summit of the highest mountain on Earth. I have always been skeptical about the faster, higher, deeper approach. Why would you want to get there. And don't give me nonsense like I wanted to be as close to my dead parents as possible. The only reason why I did not rate this even lower were the first 15 minutes who basically tell us nicely about the Himalayas without bringing the climbing perspective in. And I also won't feel sorry for you if you die up there or if you lose your hands or anything, no matter how much dramatic music you include. Maybe some areas of nature are meant to be untouched by humans and you can make beautiful nature documentaries as well without putting your life at risk. Yes the landscapes in here are beautiful of course, but that's pretty much it. Not recommended and it sucks for me to see Liam Neeson as the narrator in here as I quite like him.
fox3590 Wow, this movie is amazing, I saw it in the IMAX theater and was stunned. the graphics blew me away. The fairly well known story, that was depicted in 'Into Thin Air' is brought to new heights (quite literally) and a new understanding of just how dangerous this mountain is. I liked this movie because of the courage shown by the climbers, the have to face challenge after challenge, but they persevere. Also what really grabbed my attention is how the climbers not only document the story, but also their thoughts for you to see. I have seen many climbing movies, but this just blows them all away, taking mountain filmography to never-before-seen perfection. The scenes and the people are amazing, they have inspired me and I hope they will inspire you also. *Fox*
Sam Rupani (rupanisp) Human Body at its best.... Endurance, perseverance, and beauty of height on planet Earth. It is a world worth visiting while your stay on planet Earth.Thanks and Regards.Sam RupaniHouston, Texas, United States of America.
Big O-7 I had the opportunity to see this historic achievement in film while it was playing at a near-by IMAX screen. This film is as close as I EVER care to get to that mountain of death. The filmmakers have captured images that are unlike anything ever imagined before. And while most of the story is already well known (through best sellers THE CLIMB and INTO THIN AIR) the film still manages to keep you on the edge of your seat (and on the edge of a crevice). What else could one want? An IMAX movie on how this camera crew shot this film. Prepared to be astounded and blown away!
