Phil Hoad

Guardian

The climbing sequences are genuinely exhilarating: in monumental drone shots homing in on minuscule figures on rock faces and in blow-by-blow crag-side set pieces that demonstrate the film-makers know whereof they speak.

Rated: 3/5

Joel Fisher

Battle Royale With Cheese

Summit Fever doesn’t live up to the excitement of its name and without somebody like Phillippe to hold the audience’s attention, they may not make it to the peak either.

Jennie Kermode

Eye for Film

Subtitles identify the routes which the climbers take on each occasion, and great attention is paid to accuracy, so climbers in the audience will have a lot to engage with.

Rated: 3.5/5

Miyako Pleines

Spectrum Culture

A tonally challenged mountaineer film about two best friends who love the thrill of the climb, but ultimately end up taking on a lot more mountain than their ice picks can handle.

Alistair Lawrence

Common Sense Media

Summit Fever's writer-director Julian Gilbey does a capable job of ramping up the drama for several set pieces, despite some of them clearly being shot on a modest budget.

Rated: 2/5

Mitch C The incredible cinematography saves the film. But the acting is mediocre at best and the plot is so plodding you won't even blink when the first climber (predictably) falls. I'd rather watch the old movie Cliff Hangar again. Much better. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/15/24 Full Review KANGABOY Streetwear A mountain covered in idiots. They should retitle this effort Carry On Up The Mountain. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/23/24 Full Review Le Fifre such bad acting becomes funny Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/28/23 Full Review Jessica Filme chato, o roteiro é fraco, os personagens não cativaram. O filme não prendeu nem um pouco. Estou surpresa que está com 90% de aprovação da audiência, porque realmente deixou muito a desejar Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/19/23 Full Review T T Good cinematography. Despite its severe shortcomings, the movie was not boring at all. Every other aspect of this movie was not good. Subpar acting and script that is coupled with a shallow and cliche-ridden plot. What was most annoying was the careless choices made by almost everyone in the movie. These reckless choices make you much less sympathetic to the movie characters. By watching this movie at the movie theater, I felt that I wasted my money, not so much my time. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/28/23 Full Review Peter C Too much about egos and not enough substance Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
