Bit apprehensive after reading some of the reviews, but thought it was worth the watch. Some people need to calm down about the "priveledge" aspect - of course they couldn't afford to attempt this without financial/media backing, and at the end of the day the sherpas traverse mountains for a living - their whole career has inherent risk, they are paid to fulfill other people's wishes.
I think it conveys the risks of extreme mountaineering well, and shows the devastation that the loss of a loved one in such a circumstance can have on the family left behind.
Spencer does have a bit of a cold soulless exterior, which can be a tad hard to warm to. Good cinematography.
