MOVIE REVIEW
Beyond the Edge (2014)
In a world full of C.G.I. helicarriers, men walking away from explosions without batting an eyelash and women fighting crime with only their leather trousers holding their dignity together, an old-fashioned story of incredible human achievement is a radical invention. Since the tragic avalanche on Mount Everest a few months ago that took the lives of 12 Sherpas, “Beyond the Edge” is even more so its own kind of superhero movie.
