I read a couple of very damning reviews of this film saying that it was completely dumbed down (simplified) and that some bits are completely fake. You could see watching it that this was indeed the case...
...but, I still think, that it’s wonderful to see 70mm films in high definition (especially if your new to it too) the quality on the footage is so very clear and detailed….again its very nicely edited with long takes. There’s a wonderful sense of being up there flying...its really quite scary actually!
It’s a problematic film definitely, but I still have to recommend it because of the detail in it that the 70mm cameras get...there is after all not many films made in this format too...so they are rare things.
I can completely understand people being upset about it...being a expert in something and *then* seeing a film about your specialist subject and that film missing the mark completely is very, very annoying...so I do understand it.
THE BAD: the person doing the narration is very monotone and that was very unfortunate.
THE GOOD: It’s a heck of a experience with the detail this high. It's a spectacle.
