    "Experienced" climbers. Yeah right.
    Let me first go with a good stuff. I believe that visuals are quite good and are vertigo inducing. I also liked the commentary on social networks where people are unnecessarily putting themselves in danger in order for extra likes.

    And then we are getting to the "climbing" part. WTF was that during the beginning? You never climb side to side. If they were cheap to pay consultant on climbing, there are more than enough free YouTube videos that would explain how it is performed or ask ChatGPT which would probably give the correct answer. The first scene where guy dies could easily be filmed as rope being cut off the shap edge which would have exactly the same emotional effect, but it would be realistic.

    Next, two girls started climbing the tower being tied to each other. That is just calling for two deaths instead of one in the case of anyone slipping how they have portrayed it. Also, speaking about rope, why are "experienced" climbers bringing only a 10-15m rope? Finally, what is with the superhuman strength and stamina?

    There were so many things that make no sense and I am not nitpicking some minor things. This movie had potential, but unfortunately it was ruined but someone who thought that they knew what is climbing.

    Stretching the willing suspense of disbelief
    So the good first. It was thrilling to watch, and I did get sweaty palms. The acting is not bad.

    But why did the script writers make them do all the stupid stuff?

    • Not telling anyone about their trip
    • Not packing any realistic supplies, like a longer rope
    • Not charging the drone before the trip
    • Not clipping in on the platform
    • Charging a 120 V drone on an industrial grade bulb that would fry that charger in a nanosecond
    • Not using the rope to wrap it around the top section (use the friction to hold it) then lower them down to the main ladder
    • As someone else wrote, not using the drone to lower the phone
    • Not making a parachute for the phone to safely get it to the ground (they had clothes)


    And those evil dudes, as if they wouldn't have alerted the rescue authorities, even after stealing the car.
