Review of Everest (2015) by Spangle — 27 Sep 2015
Everest is an absolute thrill ride that needs to be experienced in IMAX 3D. Featuring solid acting and a decent emotional story, the real success of Everest comes with the incredible visuals and special effects.
Honestly, I felt cold felt watching these guys try to climb Mt. Everest successfully. As a story, it may feel generic and the guys who are portrayed here do deserve a better film about their true story and their life as guides on Everest.
However, this one does do a decent job telling their story and certainly treats its real life people with tremendous respect and grace. Just because the story takes a backseat to the visuals does not mean it is ignored.
An obvious front runner for numerous technical Academy Awards, Everest is a visual wonder that pulls all out of the stops visually and emotionally as you watch their harrowing climb and tragic demise.
