I've watched a lot of movies from a lot of eras. I've never really enjoyed rock climbing. I has a fear of heights. I don't really enjoy watching documentaries.
All these things would point to me saying that I hated this movie, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. It was a cinematographic masterpiece. The passion that Alex has for climbing and for his relationship with his girlfriend has really inspired me to always try my hardest regardless of the circumstances or tasks. One of the greatest movies I've ever seen. I'm glad that I did not pass up on this film simply because I wasn't interested in the subject the film was based on.
