UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL August 27, 2008

WONDERFUL VIDEO. AWESOME IMAGES. I'M READY TO GO CLIMB IT. DAVID BRASHEARS IS THE MAN.
 Excellent Introduction August 22, 2008

In planning for a trip to Kili, we wanted to be able to show our kids what a trip to the mountain would be like. This DVD was perfect as it included people of all ages on the climb. This is a great family film, short but perfect for those interested in beginning climbing or family outdoor adventures. It would also be beneficial to home schoolers that need some visuals to supplement geography and/or African studies.
Very beautiful film!!! August 21, 2008

I love the movie very much! It might be a bit romantic and idolized (you see only pretty things. But I found it very encouraging in my preparation to the claim! After all - among others they feature and older lady that didn't look very sporty and two teenagers... If they made it to the top - I can too!!! Just have to train hard!
Very beautiful film!!!

Excellent film... shame that IMAX films are typically only 40 mins long.. but the dvd has extra features such as a 'making of' which adds to the package. From someone who's climbed the mountain the movie is a nice reminder of the experience.. some amazing aerial shots... worth the money just for those.
GREAT MOVIE! Inspiring! June 8, 2005
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
This movie was great! It had beautiful cinematography and it was great seeing it on the IMAX screen!
I felt that it was inspiring and made me want to climb Kilimanjaro myself.
I saw it 2 times in theaters, then bought it on
DVD.
In the movie, they show 5 ordinary people brave the mountain. They go throught 5 different climate
zones, all beautiful and mysterious in their own ways. This movie also teaches you about Kilimanjaro itself,
the Great Rift Valley, and other unique features. The narrator and trek leader- Jacob. The trekkers- (adults) Roger, Heidi, Audrey, (kids) Hans, and Nicole (also Nicole's father, but you don't really get to now him) are ages 12-64 years old. David Breashears, the Director/Producer says he pick those 5 people to represent the audience- the ordinary people.
The movie shows each trekkers journey with interviews along the way.
Also another great feature of the film is the music. Composer Alan Williams really brings to life the beauty, power, and mystery of Kilimanjaro with the great score!
Other reviews criticize this movie because they don't show how hard it is to climb this mountain and what not. I say WHO CARES?!?!?!?!?! THis movie isn't about the hardships of making it to the top, it's about Kilimanjaro; its beauty, power, and mystery.
There are special features on the DVD that are a Making of Kilimanjaro: To the Roof of Africa, production slide show, quiz, and what else is on DVD.
Kilimanjaro: To the Roof of Africa is a great and inspiring movie that moves you.
