Mediocre disaster flick.

This rockumentary leaves Vertical Limit and Cliffhanger in the powder snow. The men's versions of the events are fascinating, often amusing and blatantly honest.

When the characters just shut up and dangle, Vertical Limit becomes one heck of a wild time.

Vertical Limit is about as silly as movies come, but the only thing that really counts is whether or not the action sequences are exciting. And they are, in a big way.

But at its worst, Vertical Limit makes you weary with its stock characters and de rigueur explosions, avalanches, collapsing crevices and the like.

This is a movie that means to keep you involved and, preferably, gasping from start to finish . At that, it certainly does succeed.

An overblown and predictable melodrama.

Certainly a movie in which people are forced to test themselves in unpleasant situations. But the people I have in mind are the people in the audience.

The air is thin in Vertical Limit, and so is the plot.

fairly competent but standard action fare - Better than CLIFFHANGER but not as good as THE EIGER SANCTION

The pace of the movie rarely flags (neither does the idiocy, alas) and it's enough to warrant a marginal recommendation.

If you ever have the choice of being trapped, halfway up a mountain, or of watching this movie, than I advise you to don that parka and long underwear.
