Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
A natural pick for anyone who loves an underdog and anyone with a bit of wanderlust. You don't need to know the game to feel the big moments. Same wavelength as Free Solo or The Dawn Wall.
The mood
Exciting, eye-opening.
The pace
Well paced for a documentary, at 1 hr 3 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

The Sharp End is an adrenaline-soaked journey up the world's most challenging walls: the French Alps, the Eiger, the Utah desert, the Diamond of Colorado, Indian Kashmir, Yosimite Granite, and the sandstone spires of the Czech Republic. Run-out routes, scary high-ball boulder problems, ice-covered alpine walls and all-or-nothing free-solo ascents will keep your palms perspiring.
