Everest: The Other Side

Documentary

Directed by Jimmy Chin, Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi

An intimate portrait of two people bound by love, ambition, and the pursuit of the impossible. Elite ski mountaineers Jim Morrison and Hilaree Nelson fell deeply in love while reaching the pinnacle of their sport. Their drive sharpened into a shared dream: to climb and ski the direct North Face of Mount Everest—the most difficult and dangerous climb on the mountain and the most coveted ski line on Earth—something… From TMDB

    Everest is the Disney Land of mountaineering; 30,40 years ago I admired these climbers, today I just go: shit man whtaturdouing.

    Having ripped into Apple TV's awful Matchbox: The Movie, I'm going to reverse my direction and offer the highest of praise for Tenzing, an account of the 1953 ascent of Everest. Genden Phuntsok and Tom Hiddleston star, plus Willem Dafoe's epic moustache. 4 out of 5 film-authority.com/2026/10/22/t...

    Tenzing promises his wife, all his hope. All his future. All his heart.💓 This beautiful and spiritual film focused on the heroes of Everest, the Sherpas & guides that make it possible to climb Chomolungma, that wonder of nature. Respect for the mountain is necessary to prevail.🙏🏻 Touching.🏔️ #FilmSky

    I really really didn't like EVEREST: THE OTHER SIDE, a movie thar refuses to grapple with its moral questions. And when are we going to get an Everest doc from the sherpa's point of view? Should have been a museum IMAX short, not a two hour monument to hubris. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/10/28/a...

    Honest thoughts on Tenzing: it's great we finally have a film that centre's Tenzing Norgay's story, including his climb up Chomolungma/Mount Everest. It's also very beautifully shot and I loved seeing Tenzing with his family.

It is much more than a stunning mountain movie, surprising and moving: it is about love, loss, obsession & camaraderie.

    Just watched the Film ‘Tenzing’ on Apple TV, Brilliant film, so refreshing to see the conquest of Everest from what I had been led to believe growing up, Tenzing was not a Sherpa, he was very much part of the climbing team and I would argue he was the first to conquer the mountain.

    Tenzing: good film, but virtually airbrushes expedition physiologist Dr Griffith Pugh out of the Everest story. Not introduced as a team member despite being so pivotal that Hillary’s second act after shaking Tenzing’s hand was to piss on the summit following Pugh’s hydration recommendations.
