Review of Everest (2015) by Moviemitch96 — 21 Sep 2015

Decided to check this out this week since it's only playing in IMAX 3D for its first week and I thought it looked decent and intense. All I can say is man, what a disappointment! First off, the 3D felt so pointless and didn't invest me any further into the film.

Hell, halfway through I pretty much lost interest and didn't really care anymore. Also, the cast felt wasted. For such a great ensemble, everyone's acting was surprisingly mediocre. The middle act felt cluttered and overstuffed with too much happening all at once that it was hard to keep track of all the characters and what was happening to them.

And last but not least, the ending was depressing as hell with very little payoff. Yes I understand that these are facts and it was a true story, but that doesn't change the fact that it still put me in a downer mood as I left the theater.

Overall, not as near intense as I would've liked and a waste of 3D, talent, and potential.
