WOW - no where near the real story

Rating: 1/10 (30 December 2015)

This movie is filled with great scenes of the mountain, but could not even remotely stand close to the book. They don't concentrate on any one character for more then a few minutes and when people start to get left behind you don't really get any part of the real story. A huge break from even the made for TV movie which I thought was horrible but now would choose to watch that over this remake any day of the week. An awesome book, an awesome and sad story, a Hollywood version where the characters are flat. Sorry - I would give this a 0 if it were an option. Go out and watch the original and read the book because you need it to follow this story.
