Everest 3D Blu-ray (2015) [Region Free]

[Interdimensional]

I remember seeing the 90s Imax film Everest, and finding that a grueling experience (although well made). The whole mindset of subjecting yourself to a potentially suicidal ordeal like that just to prove something never made a whole lot of sense to me, but I suppose it's their choice.

So this was not exactly on my radar, but it seems to be getting very good press.

‘Everest’ Review: Big-Screen 3D Adventure Hits A New Peak

This true story based on the ill-fated 1996 expeditions to the peak of the imposing Mount Everest has, as I say in my video review (click the link above), been brought to life with stunning clarity by director Baltasar Kormakur in a movie tailor-made for the big-screen glory of Imax and 3D. In fact, I don’t think I have ever seen a movie better suited for these formats. In other words folks, don’t watch this one on your keychain.

that's pretty much exactly what you'd hope for a film like this. If it gets more write-ups like this, I might check it out.
