Description

Warning: You're about to experience the most breath taking, exhilarating and inspirational ride of your life. The world's best skiers go beyond their dreams to conquer the steepest runs ever faced. From the sheer cliffs of Grand Teton, to the treachery of Chamonix France, to the untouched Alaskan peaks of Valdez, these extremers sacrifice their lives for a thrill but what a thrill it is. Fantastically beautiful images of the most magnificent peaks on the globe along with devastating avalanches and fatal spills only serve to push them harder. But you're about to discover -- not everyone who goes up the mountain -- returns.

    Steep has absolutely amazing footage from many of the legends of freeskiing, and the film gives a fairly good history of the movement. However, as amazing as this footage and these skiers are, the film feels dull and uninspired. There's really no compelling narrative or excitement to the interviews. These guys are great skiers, but their interviews are monotonous. Everyone basically gives the same interview, explaining how there's the huge risk of freeskiing is worth it for the huge rewards it offers. If you just want to see awesome ski footage, watch a Warren Miller flick. If you want a freeskiing documentary, An Ordinary Skier and The Edge of Never are both far superior.

    After watching this movie I want to buy it for all my family and friends. It has the kind of energy that makes you want to accompish the impossible. The scenery and ski scenes are breathtaking and leave you uplifted. I rented it and would highly recommend it to anyone:)
