⭐ Insomniacs Rating: 4/10 THE SUMMARY A high-quality rock climbing trip turns into a desperate struggle for survival when Kelly (Brittany Ashworth) witnesses the murder of her best friend by a group of four male climbers. Armed with a camera containing evidence of the crime, she begins a legendary ascent up a sheer cliff face to escape them. However, the killers aren't far behind, and Kelly finds herself trapped on a narrow ledge hundreds of feet in the air. It’s an honest "cat-and-mouse" thriller that tries to take the tension of *Cliffhanger* and mix it with a gritty, modern survival banger. THE PROS The vertical setting is a total winner; the high-quality cinematography does an honest job of making the height feel legendary and vertigo-inducing. Brittany Ashworth is absolute quality in the lead, putting in a sincere and physically demanding performance that keeps the stakes feeling grounded. It hits the 4 mark because the basic concept is a high-quality shout for fans of "trapped" thrillers—there’s a legendary simplicity to being stuck on a rock wall with nowhere to go. It’s an honest, fast-paced watch that serves as a decent banger for anyone who just wants a high-stakes survival flick without any complicated layers. THE CONS It lands a 4/10 because the villains are an absolute head-shaker. Their dialogue is quality-deficient and leans into every "toxic bro" cliché in the book, making them feel like cardboard cutouts rather than a legendary threat. The logic is an honest frustration; characters make quality-deficient decisions just to keep the plot moving, which kills the sincere tension. It misses a higher mark because the CGI in some of the high-quality climbing shots is a bit of an honest struggle, looking a touch quality-deficient and taking you out of the moment. The pacing is a bit of a slow-roller in the middle, and the finale lacks the "epic status" required to make it a legendary standout in the genre. THE VERDICT A 4/10. A high-quality premise that ends up feeling a bit quality-deficient in the execution. While the setting is absolute quality and the lead is a winner, the cringe-worthy villains and predictable plot make it an honest slog at times. A fair shout if you have a fear of heights and want a quick thrill, but otherwise, it’s a sincere skip. INSOMNIAC TRIVIA • Practical Heights: To keep the climbing scenes honest and high-quality, the production used a mix of real locations in Serbia and high-quality sets. The legendary cliff face was built to allow for sincere, close-up action while keeping the actors' safety a total win.• Training Days: Brittany Ashworth went through a high-quality, intensive climbing camp to ensure her movements on the rock looked absolute quality. This sincere effort helped make the legendary struggle of her character feel more honest on screen.• Genre Inspiration: The director wanted to create a high-quality "vertical thriller" that paid homage to legendary mountain movies. He focused on making the ledge itself feel like a sincere character, ensuring the cramped, high-quality space felt like an honest prison. THE VIBE Like the feeling of your grip slipping on a cold rock. It smells of chalk dust, mountain air, and the metallic tang of a rusted carabiner.
