I have to ask again...


Will Hollywood EVER get climbing or mountaineering even half right? Perhaps only Vertical Limit is as laughably bad from a technical standpoint as Infinite Storm. Watching literally 5 minutes of the scene where she finds "John" reveals more than a half dozen painfully obvious blunders in her behavior that would likely have severely endangered her survival but certainly "John's" as well. I guess I wouldn't really care if it might not cause someone else to commit these errors in the future (hint: do not ever EVER rub someone's feet if they have obvious frostbite). And if you want to avoid frostbite yourself, don't ever do ANYTHING bare-handed as is shown for extended periods in this film. First, you'll freeze your fingers; second, your gloves or mittens will pack with snow in wind like is depicted so putting them back on will actually make things worse.
