: Vertical Limit

Pleasant actioner about mountain climbing. The plot’s worthless — brother goes to rescue sister who’s trapped on top of K2 — but the action’s not bad. It’s so over-the-top I found it scarcely believable. I seriously doubt mountainclimbers face this much death in a lifetime of climbing, let alone during one rescue mission. But of course one doesn’t watch a film like this for the plot, silly character pseudo-drama, or examples of logic: it’s all about the adrenaline, and this kept me entertained.
