I found the full movie streamed online, for free. Just click play. Gets a bit boring at the 30min mark, but picks up again towards the end.

If it's anything like the stuff already online I wont be wasting my cash on it. To many shots of belayers and superficial context shots of the environment.

Clearly, the main reason any world class climbers travel to the arse end of Norway is to climb in a massive, world class granite cave, rather than to contemplate the landscape with all the false sincerity they can muster. A bit of context is welcome, but if it's half of a two hour film which is essentially about trying to climb the hardest route in the world, well that seems a bit silly to me.

Presumptuous, and probably a bit harsh, but there you go. The home-made efforts of the Belgian big wallers are, by far, the most worthwhile climbing films I've seen in recent years. Whenever climbing films try to get 'deeper' and present the activity as more than what it actually is, I cringe.

A to the men on that one. Brilliant and inspiring films.

Which films are these? Would love to give them a watch

There are a few around, with a mixed cast of heroes but usually involving Sean Villanueva O'Driscoll and frequently Nicolas Favresse.

Greenland:   
Patagonia:   
China:   http://www.xpedition.be/?p=579

No doubt there are more and others may post links (and better links). They're great videos without exception...

This is the best climbing film I've ever watched in nearly 20 years - better even than The Real Thing! Perhaps I'm too sentimental but I loved how the film opens out to explore the vast land in which its set, as well as zooming in to micro-focus on roughly 25(?) failed attempts on a single move on the hardest route in the world. Ondra is so utterly single-minded! It's got everything, even trad gear-ripping deck-outs. Outstanding.

[haydn jones]

I'm gonna just leave this video of Ondra doing interpretive dance of climbing here....

[finbarrr]

 
 
That video is great

The change movie ... Really good shots of Norway, some good climbing shots.
BUT boy did it get on my nerves that trees, lakes and clouds got slow motion, and most of the climbing literally got fast forwarded
 

Peter the filmmaker does not love , dare I say it, he does not even like climbing, and it shows

[a dense loner]

I wasn't impressed with it either. I like Ondra, places looked good, just didn't really hold any interest for me. Hard to believe it was 2 years in the making

[Rocksteady]

I see that Ondra has outwadded all the other wads in the La Sportiva Legends comp.

It's getting a bit ridiculous how much better he is than everyone else.

[finbarrr]

you could have put a spoiler-alert on that post (?), good thing i already watched it


all that endurance training paid off 
, he seemed fresh as a daisy at the end of that 

loved how the commentator kept saying that the moves and boulders were really hard, when someone made a boulder look easy.

to win with such a margin from this bunch of competitors.. 

[jwi]

100 9a or harder for young master Ondra.

[Doylo]

Obscene stat.

[bigironhorse]

100 9a or harder for young master Ondra.

Incredible achievement, would be interesting to know who is in second place for ticking grade 9's? Ramon has done 38 according to 8a

[jwi]

With sixty-eight 9a, twenty 9a+, nine 9b and three 9b+ already in the bag 9c cannot be too far off?

[Doylo]

Finding a doable 9c must be pretty tricky!

[gme]

He has at least one that he has done all the moves on in Flatanger.

After watching him win the comp last weekend, when he made the worlds strongest boulderers look pretty average, and now seen this stat he truly is so far ahead of everyone, Megos is pitched at being close but i think the gap is still pretty big.

[Doylo]

Megos has got the potential but Ondras got quite a few years on him. Be interesting to see how Megos gets on if/when he starts trying 9bs.

Sharma must be close. The only other climber with a substantial number of 9bs

[r-man]

The runner up on this exclusive list are Ramonet and Dani Andrada with around 40 and Chris Sharma with some 35.

[a dense loner]

100 9a's and harder! Ridiculous stat 

[Fiend]

9a, decades old trade routes, have been flashed, etc 

[Muenchener]

Adam Ondra, the 100 x 9a or harder interview

Hubble ... Ben Moon was ahead of his time by a huge margin!

Not quite as bad as Mcclure downplaying his finger strength.
