The Eiger Sanction was a good one.

The Eiger Sanction was a good one.

 

That's what I thought too so I saw it again last year. Ugh. What a bunch of male posturing, worthless womanizing, deadpan dialog, and Eastwood sweat scenes leading to some mediocre climbing footage, unimpressive mountain cinematography, and a completely cheesy finale.

 

IMHO this is a much more beautiful film in all those dimensions (available through Netflix, no less): Third Man on the Mountain (1959)

You found the Eiger Sanction too cliched so you truck out the Disney climbing movie?

OK, so it trades sexism for Disney values. Hollywood is all cliches, right?

 

The main point is the climbing footage and mtn scenery are way better than the ES.
