...so I have no reason to either review or grade it, but the synopsis written here Does make me wanna say something.
"An elite Navy SEAL, goes on a path to avenge his wife's murder only to find himself inside of a larger conspiracy. " Exchange "elite navy seal" with a "boy scout cop in New York", and you get Max Payne (which had an Awful movie adaptation as well), so yeah - Im gonna pass...

... but I could NOT get past the first 5 minutes, and it was NOT because of the material - it Was because it is shot HORRIBLY. The Material overall probably is great - CKs stuff usually is - but Holy Cow he made All the wrong choices for such a performance, at least based on what I saw.
I mean the Constant close-up on C. K. without Any shots of the audience, despite there being multiple angles and jumpcuts of the comedian, makes the performance feel Not Live, contrary to the title, and that Ironically is Not helped by the pristine audio of the audience, which makes an already lifeless show feel absolutely sterile. Yeah, I definitely cant recommend watching this, so listening probably is the only way to go if youre interested what Louis had to say in 2011...

As a non-climber, I was quite intrigued by "Free Solo", due to it's showcase of Alex Hannold's Mindset, along with the thoughts of other climbers featured - not to mention the sport is visually stunning, if we are talking cinema-wise, so a big screen and a good sound system is a Must.
A couple of other climbing documentaries later I figured I wanted to see Hannold's ascent of "Half Dome". and since this series documented it in the first Episode, I decided to give it a try. Not only the Ep was great, but it also convinced me to check out the rest of the show, and I was Not disappointed.
With that said,"Point of no Return" stood out from the rest, and while I found it really engaging anyway, one thing in particular made me actually Rate it here (I usually don't rate separate Ep's). Personally, I think it's Especially worthwhile if you are an aspiring climber yourself, and I recommend to see it Even if the rest of the show does not interest you (which doesn't feel like a possibility for somebody into the sport).
Anyway, I didn't see any other reviews for this show, so I truly recommend it to anybody interested in climbing, or anybody who wants to take a look at the philosophy of people daring enough to partake in the sport.
