Beautiful but difficult to follow, very narrow view point

Rating: 7/10 (15 October 2015)

I absolutely wanted to see this film because of Jon Krakauer's good book and the interviews I had read given by the survivors, also the Finnish Veikka Gustavsson who helped to rescue and is mentioned in the book but not in the film. I found it very confusing during the second hour of the film as people's faces were frozen and it certainly got impossible to recognize different persons. The women characters, genuine persons, had hardly any dialogue at all. Somehow the all the characters except Rob Hall and Beck remained very shallow. Also, as important as sherpas are for climbing the mountain, should at least have been mentioned in the end. Maybe the script could have been a more profound. As I saw the movie only in 2 D, I think it should be watched at least in 3D or IMAX.
