I have watched a lot of accounts and

I have watched a lot of accounts and dramatizations of mountaineering expeditions, but this is the oddest one I have seen. I guess it is because this film tries to be more than one genre. It is part thriller, part documentary of Chinese Himalayan history, part romance and some propaganda thrown in for good measure. Too much of everything at different times, it seemed to me. The thriller part was like a Hollywood movie, with more last second rescues and literal cliffhangers than any climber might experience in a lifetime, and some of them so dramatic I expected to see a superhero cape flapping in the howling winds. Likewise the romance angle seemed overplayed at times, descending into melodrama. Romantic happiness seemed harder to achieve than summitting Everest itself. I watched it to the end, however, hanging on because the special effects seemed good to me, if a little disjointed, plus I could appreciate the restrictions the Chinese director was under in mailing this national celebration of a movie.

Embarrassing

The biggest discomfort of the film is the split of emotions, the paleness of the narrative, the frivolous emotions, and the strong sense of disappointment after the high expectations are lost. Not good enough. For a film of such a size and level as "Climber", it means "bad" by itself.

After repeated reflection, the board should play on the play itself. From theme selection to character design to plot structure, and even logic, there are many problems.

"Climber" is undoubtedly the main theme, what to promote, what to sing, has already been set, and there is no need to create a team to work out.

Two abrupt loves further blur the theme. The seemingly rich emotional expression did not separate the primary and secondary, so that the motivation of the protagonist in the film has been swinging between national honor, adventure enthusiasm and love.

The most terrible thing is that the climax of the movie actually put the emotional outlet above "love". The final radio wave confession of Wu Jing and Zhang Ziyi completely diluted the sublimation of the summit. The grand propositions that had been accumulated before and after suddenly became a wood without roots In the end, one can only accumulate in the audience's heart, which is difficult to release.
