Review of The Walk (2015) by Rebecca31 — 08 Nov 2015
Witness the epic story of Philippe Petit, the man who dared to walk across a wire suspended between the twin towers. The amazing event portrayed on the big screen, in 3D no less. Definitely worth a watch, the catch however, you'll have to sit through at least an hour of pure fluff, Philippe's early life in Paris as told through one of the most cringe inducing narrations in film history, made all the worse by Joseph Gordon-Levitt's attempt at a French accent. Points for effort as the rest of his performance redeems itself. Honestly there's only one scene in this film that makes it worth the time, everything else is just padding, and there is absolutely no excuse for CGI juggling, none.
Recommended yet the documentary that stars the real life Philippe Petit is a much better watch.
