Did You Know?

Trivia:
Montgomery Wick's name is an obvious reference to Thomas Montgomerie and Jim Wickwire. Montgomerie discovered K2, and Jim Wickwire was the first American to climb K2. Wickwire also lost several toes on the mountain, similar to the character Montgomery Wick.See more »
Goofs:
Continuity: One exploding cylinder of nitro results in a fireblast of hundreds of meters up a cliff (scene where Monique is hanging), but when an _entire crate_explodes (later at the army depot), only the unreinforced storage building is completely gone, and the surroundings are lightly damaged.See more »
Quotes:
Montgomery Wick:You did the right thing to cut the rope. Any good climber would have. If Royce had had the knife, he'd have done it himself.See more »

Entertaining Mountain Climbing Film, 4 January 2006
Author: whpratt1 from United States

Usually I do not care very much for mountain climbing films as they usually have a very similar plot. This film had plenty of action with Helicopters flying all over the place and horrible snow storms and also entrapment in caves deep under tons of snow and ice. The film starts out with a father, son and daughter adventuring up a steep mountain during a very sunny day and having a wonderful time with each other. Their father was a very experienced climber and all of a sudden a tragic situation happens and a horrible life or death decision had to be made within seconds. There is lots of scary scenes and plenty of explosions and more action than you can handle.
