3.5 out of 10 You will feel the pain
Denis from Wexford, 23 Jul 2009

What's it about....
When the ultimate adventure becomes the ultimate nightmare... Kevin Macdonald's excellent BAFTA-award winning docu-drama (and Evening Standard Film Of The Year 2004), based on Joe Simpson's best-selling book, details the risks that climbers will take to conquer the rocky challenges before them in recounting a climbing expedition gone horribly wrong.
