You might want to keep your phone out for these.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- One for sports fans (and people who swear they aren't) and people who love a true story told well. You don't need to know the game to feel the big moments.
- The mood
- Eye-opening.
- The pace
- Well paced for a documentary, at 52 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
- Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.
The lack of snow in much of the world, and a lack of snowpack stability in most other places, made this winter exceptionally challenging. Mentally and otherwise. A bit like a riddle, a maze, and a game of chicken rolled into one. With heavy consequences for not playing at the very top of your game. Lucky for you, (and for Absinthe) we were at the right place at the right time. But that would be a long and weird name for a movie, so we decided to call this one HEAVY MENTAL. You will be rocked. Riders include Victor De Le Rue, Austen Sweetin, Bode Merrill, Jason Robinson, Mat Schaer, Wolfgang Nyvelt, Manuel Diaz, Victor Daviet, Johnnie Paxson, Romain De Marchi, Blair Habenicht, Scot Brown, Ozzy Henning, Rusty Ockenden, Nils Arvidsson, Mathieu Crepel, Sylvain Bourbousson, Helen Schettini, and Mike Basich
