I liked First Ascent and King Lines pretty well. Any Dosage is probably good, I haven't seen them all.

Someone told me the other day that the guy in First Ascent that didn't get the FA on the cobra crack is a monk now. Crazy.

King Lines is pretty baller. But it depends on what kind of climbing gets your juices flowing. Why watch two hours of sport badass-ness if you hate it to begin with.

For climbing...Hard Grit, for bouldering...The Real Thing.

I have a British fetish apparently.

First ascent was the first climbing film I've seen in a long time that was more meaningful than just watching some climbing sickness paired up with a techno/hiphop soundtrack. I'll definitely be checking out more of Peter Mortimer's films...

Psyche is really good but First Ascent is my favorite to date.
