Reviews & comments
South China Morning Post
pressThis account of the Chinese Mount Everest expeditions in 1960 and 1975 is a nationalistic spectacle that, curiously, often also allows personal sentiment to get in the way of the greater good.
Hollywood Reporter
pressNone of the relationships transcend narrative function, and so death, rage and reconciliations ring hollow.
The Guardian
pressLee balances vertiginous, windswept set-pieces with satisfying character beats.
