Final Ascent (2000 TV Movie)
10/10
A young girl saves her father and a group of climbers
6 December 2004
Alright, the film is like "Cliffhanger" only no budget, but I like the bad guy getting altitude sickness, as one other reviewer wrote. It's fun to see him get progressively sicker but to keep climbing for the money. Some action at the end is so poorly directed that the young girl parachutes down and gets back up too quickly to save her dad. The casting on this film is weak with many of the secondary characters. I assume these were not "Hollywood" hires. Some clever dialogue, though. The pacing of the film seemed good. Heidi Noelle Lenhart comes across as quite likable. In fact, it was her that kept me watching. In the end, this could have been a better film with more money and better secondary actors.
