The overall idea was very intriguing, but quickly dissolved as you realize the main goal is truly unattainable. As the viewer, it felt like they only completed the documentary because they had put so much effort up to that point. We learn very little at all about the species discovered on this expedition and we are left with a very broad concern for the area. The final disappoint was the climbing portion. They recruited one of the most well known climbers, Alex Honnold, but we learn very little about the climbing and only hear him speak a few times throughout the hour. Overall, I really wanted to like this documentary, but everything just felt rushed and finished before it started.
I really enjoyed what the film was working toward and think there was a good idea culminating. In the end, it felt a little like a failed coming of age story that never really gave you any big pay off. The actors all did a good job and the cinematography was quite enjoyable. But I'm not sure that I could recommend it to a friend.
