slightly out of touch

As a movie, it's a bit incongruous. It doesn't have the big scenes of disaster movies, the persistent beliefs of inspirational movies, the realism of documentaries, and the drama of plots. Because I'm used to watching the movie without watching the trailer or the movie review, so I was really confused, and the last third realized that this is probably the real thing~~ Because only the real thing can be like this, so I am very concerned about this. Mountaineering enthusiasts who are hard to understand in Changshan may be able to see a little taste. For the general public who do not know the background and do not have much love and understanding of the sport itself, such a movie is not ideal. How to interpret real events with stories rather than documentary, plot rather than exaggeration is indeed not an easy task.

Rob Hall: Can you just listen up? Guys? We got 2,000 feet, 600 vertical meters to Camp Four. It's roped all the way, so I know you can make it. Now, once we get to the yellow band we're gonna regroup, put on the masks, turn on the gas. Make sense?
