- Excerpt: Spectacular: a peak experience….
- Charlie Juhl @ Citizen Charlie
- Excerpt: As intense as any action blockbuster at times. Don’t try and understand why some men must climb impossible peaks; your pleasure is to sit back and watch them do it.

- Excerpt: Jimmy Chin, Conrad Anker, and Renan Ozturk climbed Meru, base to peak, and that’s a mind-blowing example of mental, emotional, and athletic excellence. But a great film would explore the driving force behind that excellence, the moment-to-moment elemental challenges it poses, and the very real repercussions, external as well as internal, of pursuing it.

- Excerpt: A must see for climbing buffs and anyone fascinated by the strength and resilience of the human body and spirit.
