Tier cover
They are the best ones I seen and they are heavy duty. You can't go wrong with them .They should easily protect your tires.

Lots of holes and weirdly dumb decisions
I had a hard time taking it seriously once it got to the nitroglycerin. I mean, that was the mother of all bad decisions.

Depends on your preference of genre. It’s well shot and casted.

賛否あれど良作
「メンタリスト」のリズボン捜査官ことロビン・タニーの若かりし頃を観れる作品です。当時、劇場で観ましたが、とても迫力があって大作だと感じました。今見るとちょっと物足りない気がしますが、テレビ軽く見るぶんには良作だと思います。

Even though it is only an action B movie, I always liked it and I was glad to see it one more time. Rating it four stars may be a little bit generous, but still, I had such a good time watching it, that I simply had no choice. Below, more of my impressions, with some limited SPOILERS.A precision here - I know absolutely NOTHING about climbing and the highest place where I ever have been is Klein Matterhorn (3883 metres), followed by Teide (3718 metres), both valiantly ascended by cable-car... This might explain why I liked this film so much...Peter Garrett (Chris O'Donnell) and his sister Annie (Robin Tunney) were climbing mountains since they were very young, but now have a difficult relationship, following a very bad accident three years earlier. Peter is now a photographer but Annie continues a very succesful climbing career - she was in fact selected to be part of an expedition ascending K2, together with an exuberant billionnaire Elliot Vaughn (Bill Paxton) and a renowned climber Tom McLaren (Nicholas Lea, of X-Files fame).The expedition meets with problems and a rescue party, encouraged by a financial reward, is formed to attempt a rescue. This group will be led by an eccentric but extremely competent hermit/climber Montgomery Wick (Scott Glenn, amazing!) - other members will be Peter Garrett, two somehow psychedelic Australians, a Pakistani soldier and last but not least Monique Aubertine (Isabella Scorupco), a woman climber so deep in debt, that she doesn't even dare to descend into the valleys...This is a surprisingly well done little film, mixing the climber/mountain drama with some additional elements. There is an old and terrible score to settle between two of the characters (I will say no more here). There is a dangerous cargo some people have to carry. There is war raging nearby - the merciless high-altitude confrontation between India and Pakistan, mostly in form of artillery duels, called the Siachen War, still not finished albeit a cease-fire is in effect since 2003. And then of course there is the mountain itself...Even if Mount Everest killed much more people, K2 is considered an even more difficult and dangerous mountain - and the only reason why it killed less climbers is that much, much less people try to ascend it, because of all the perils. The horrible weather, extremely deadly avalanches and even the name itself, all created a threatening aura around this mountain - and it adds to the climate of tension in this film.Even if the scenario may seem by moments a little bit extravagant and the main villain slightly too one-dimensional, this is still a darn good action/adventure movie. Lots of imagination and creativity went into creating some of the scenes - I almost would like to say more here, but I will not, to preserve the surprises. High mountain scenes are very good, characters are rather well done, the scenario is honest and the ending is quite strong, at least for my personal taste.I liked this film in 2000 when it was in the cinemas and I liked it again 15 years later, therefore I simply have no choice than rating it four stars. I will definitely keep the DVD for another viewing in the future. ENJOY!
