Beyond The Edge tells the gripping story of Sir Edmund Hillary and Tezing Norgay’s ascent to the peak of Mount Everest in 1953, the first people to achieve this amazing feat.

The film directed by Leanne Pooley uses video and audio archive footage interwoven with new dramatic realisations of the events leading up to this amazing success. The story is a massive part of history and this film does it a real justice. The cinematography of the new dramatisations is absolutely stunning and real hits home as a viewer the true scale of this achievement.

There is no real criticism I can give to this film, it is well thought out, directed, acted, and produced.  If you know nothing about this historic event or everything about it, you should watch this film.

The film is been released in 3D which I have unfortunately been unable to see. However if the nature of the newly filmed footage is anything to go by, it will be truly stunning in 3D and well worth the watch.

4/5
