That was an excellent one.
Stylish but barely mediocre overall
There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
View MoreThis film documents the journey that is completing the Vermont 100 ultra-marathon for ultra-runner Zak. He tries three years in a row and "does not finish" (DNF) the first two years. The training, the physical preparation, the mental preparation, and the pure guts and grit are all perfectly captured and communicated in this film. If you're an ultra-marathoner it will likely hit home. If not, it might just inspire you to become one. Running 100 miles will break the human body down so completely and so thoroughly that nothing more than heart and mind can take you to the finish. This is by far one of my favorite "test of the human spirit" documentaries.
