Movie Reviews
Stunningly flawless visuals with a good commentary.
A documentary movie without a soul
It's probably one of the most uninspiring and annoying movies about mountains i've ever watched. It completely doesn't focus on the aesthetic and religious part of mountain exploration. It sticks to technology, economy and even indirectly praises the destruction of the environment. After watching this movie, i feel like the entirety of the mountain range should be protected as a national park, so people stop doing harmful and damaging things to one of the most beautiful regions in entire Europe.
