| User ReviewAbb JInto The Cold: A Journey Of The Soul: Explorers Sebastian Copeland and Keith Heger brave the harsh elements of the Arctic in their two month trek to mark the 100 year anniversary of Robert Peary's historic hike to the North Pole. The documentary captures the stark beauty of the rapidly shrinking ice cap and the unnerving noiselessness, except for the howling winds and shifting ice floes, all of which could cause sudden death. The joy at seeing such a magnificent site is tinged with sadness in knowing that, due to global warming, there will never be a bicentennial trek. A- |
| User ReviewMelissa VThese guys walked for a month over the Arctic Sea to get to the North Pole...bittersweet, though, discovering that this feat will be impossible in the near future due to the fact that the multi-year ice no longer exists as the Arctic summers are too warm to keep the ice frozen over the season. |
| User ReviewJohn BAn unimaginable trip to the North Pole by two men who brave the inhumanly cold conditions of this vanishing part of Planet Earth. It's generally a fascinating story. But the limitations of the production hinder it a bit. I found the narration by Sebastian Copeland to be awefully claustrophobic after awhile, like I was listening to him think the same monotonous thoughts over and over. Combined with some heavy-handed rock music, it just all felt too inauthentic to me at times. This is one of those cases where the lack of documentary filmmaking craft/experience/adventure takes away a bit from the story, at least for viewers like me. But there's no denying the amazing accomplishment of this film even existing. Glad I caught up with this one. |
