Tag Archive for: rockspot
IMDB Rating: 5.8/10
Year Released: 2000
IMDB Synopsis: A climber must rescue his sister on top of K2, one of the world’s
biggest mountains.
Rock Spot Synopsis: As if climbing K2 isn’t hard
enough (One in four will perish in the attempt) some knucklehead deemed it
necessary to bring up some nitroglycerin, you know, just in case. I’ve personally
replaced my chalk bag with a canister of nitroglycerin. I find that it makes my
hands feel dryer and gives me an edge with my explosive movements.

IMDB Rating: 6.0/10
Year Released: 2002
IMDB Synopsis: Two professional solo
climbers form an uneasy partnership after a successful rescue mission grants them
the gift of a lifetime.
Rock Spot Synopsis: On more than one occasion you will literally say the words,
“that’s not how that works.” You’ll throw your hands in the air and roll your
eyes multiple times during this film.

IMDB Rating: 5.0/10
Year Released: 2000
IMDB Synopsis: A troubled teenager joins a group of rock climbers and is quickly forced
into a death-defying adventure.
Rock Spot Synopsis: Before this movie ends you’ll
be hoping that all of the main characters die just so they don’t pass off
unsafe climbing habits onto other viewers.

IMDB Rating: 6.3/10
Year Released: 1975
IMDB Synopsis: A classical art professor and collector, who doubles as a professional
assassin, is coerced out of retirement to avenge the murder of an old friend.
Rock Spot Synopsis: Of all of the movies in our
list this one has the least amount of climbing. It’s a Clint Eastwood film so
you can expect certain things: Clint Eastwood is the “good guy” and he will
kill a billion other guys to kill the “bad guy.”
