Movie Reviews of Into Thin Air: Death on Everest

Movie Review: Harrowing film!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is really one of the most effective and terrifying adventure movies I've ever seen. The acting is uniformly wonderful, the musical score gave me goosebumps, the photography catapaulted between spectacular and almost claustrophobicly personal, and by the last gripping half hour, you really feel like you're there with them.

I think it's utterly selfish and short-sighted to leave spouse and children so that you can haul yourself up a mountain as dangerous as Everest, which gives no quarter to the slightest mistake; irrespective of that, I found their fight for survival and their commitment to each other deeply moving.

I recently finished Krakauer's book, and the movie does it justice. It's just so emotional, so in-your-face, I was mesmorized by the journey, and devastated by the outcome. It's a terrific film.
