A "hegymászó kalanddráma" alműfaj kliséinek elcsépelt cselekménye (főleg K2) csak az utolsó 20 percben felfrissít. A karaktereket is jobban ki lehetett volna rajzolni. De a jó technikai kivitelezéssel, a jó színészekkel és különösen az Eiger alatti (és északoldali) magával ragadó környezettel a film megfelelő mennyiségű feszültséget, drámát és a fináléban még érzelmeket is elér. Minőségi kivitelezés, erős érzelmi élmény. Német mozi.

The mountaineering part is riveting, free of clichés, realistic (from a layman’s point of view) and often so much so that I would like to see a “making of", because often the mind boggles at “how they were able to film that without the actor actually hanging there at ten thousand feet in the middle of a snowstorm". The problem with the picture is that apart from the mountaineering part, there is a reporting part, following the ascent from basecamp. And that is absolutely unnecessary. Which makes it even more frustrating that it gets as much room as the climbing part. And this carries on until the last forty minutes of the movie. The creators rely heavily on the fact that the viewer already has some knowledge of the Eiger and so not much effort is lost on introducing the mountain. Which is a bit of a shame for those who aren’t “in the know". Somehow I had expected that this movie would be about the first successful attempt at climbing the Eiger by Harrer’s team, so it was a surprise and an enlightening experience to find out otherwise.

A solid wartime film focusing on climbers attempting to summit the previously unconquered Mount Eiger. The first hour is quite a yawn, but once you head up the mountain it's a decently chilling spectacle where you can clearly see the power of nature, which certainly has no mercy. Decent survival drama. 75%

An epic historical story about mountain climbers from the time before the Second World War, which has all the screenwriting pitfalls but also the benefits of an interesting historical story. After all, you will hardly come up with anything extra in this genre, but the shots of the mountains… those will never get old, not in a thousand years.
