Valley Uprising

Entertaining and very informative look at the history of climbing, including many of the wild characters who were pioneers over the decades. The editing was fantastic - the best I've ever seen on giving life to old photos.

I'm doing this somewhat backwards after watching free solo in the cinema a year or so ago but this was arguably even better other than the iMax filming of the actual climb! Thoroughly entertaining look at the history of Yosemite and the personalities of those who have climbed there over the years!

Wow what a great documentary and movie. Educational and inspiring.

This movie is not only very detailed and technically post-produced in an amazing way, it is actually SUPER FUN. Actors aka climbers are so honest and spontaneous that you can't stop staring at them and laughing out loud.

The story of the touristic evolution of the Yosemite national park is quite astonishing and sad for certain aspects. It is a film about people, real human beings that will make you dream.

While watching this outstanding documentary you will feel the need to run pack your climbing gears and go training to get ready for the next adventure on those big walls... Dreaming is guaranteed.

Oh, by the way, adrenaline must run high during the movie; if you suffer of heart conditions, watch it with caution!

Fascinating to see how a bunch of hobos learned to climb with minimal equipment back in the 50's. Great to see how throughout the years climbing became a real focus. A must watch.
