With the release of the
4 minutes long trailer, this movie had said it all about its what’s and who’s.
Little left to be justified was the impeccable Walk and its story rammed with
it. We’ve seen many biographical movies and all have been exhilarating, because,
the example stands right before us live today, but fewer are those which have
done something lunatic enough as that being their dream and have set successfully
been landed behind the bars. One among such is Philippe Petit, who chose to tightrope
walk between the twin towers. Had if this movie been a fiction art, trust me it
would have nudged your brain every time when he pulls that insane stunt over
the tightrope. Amazingly here you have to believe it, because this is a real
performance. The 2 liner plot about this movie is, the former part of the film
just introduces you to his dream, and the post part shows how he achieved it.
If you were to hear him
saying all through the movie that how did it all start and with the tiniest detailing,
surely your interest level would have soon met the ground, and that happens
exactly in the first half. The extra detailed stuffs are showered and made you
realize that it’s a real big shit he is talking about. Zemeckis has majorly
focused on building the effect rather than being original, but the film in its
post half soon lands in the final act. Trust me it surely is a real big shit,
every single breath counts on that rope. The insane vertigo makes you feel
sick, and the confidence on his face releases you off that tension. All this pulled
out in 1974 on a construction of two 415 meter towers. It just amazes you with
all respect and you have nothing more to say except a feeling of fulfillment.
In a biographical movie
the best thing is, you need not like the protagonist or the female protagonist
for their character played, it is their story that needs to be apprehended and
respected. The important part is, the person embodying the legend should have
leave an appealing effect, and Joseph Gordon Lewwit here leaves no stones
un turned in putting that up to it. The very-high-wire sequence is genuinely
gasp-inducing. See it in 3D on the largest screen available.
You might not fall off the rope, but you certainly will fall for Philippe.
