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
- Right up the alley of adventure lovers and the curious. Paris does a lot of the work, and it looks wonderful. Sits nicely alongside Free Solo or The Dawn Wall.
- The mood
- Exciting, eye-opening.
- The pace
- Big, sprawling and full of spectacle, at 5 hr.
- What might put you off
- It's long: 5 hr.
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.
