This movie is like the skin that forms over pudding. You know what I'm talking about. Either you love pudding skin or you hate it. I waited and waited for this movie to be OK, but it did not happen. Because this movie is silly and dumb and the musical score made feel a sensation quite like marbles slamming against my skull.
Then the movie ended.

Plot summary
Gripped is a feature length rock-climbing survival epic that takes place on the side of a thousand foot cliff in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. Gripped tells the story of Rose, a gym climber from Los Angeles on her first outdoor climb. While bouldering with her friend Jade, Rose falls for Bret, an experienced outdoorsman. She talks him into taking her - against his better judgment - on a famous, advanced rock-climbing route called "Killer Pillar." Disaster strikes when Bret falls and suffers a serious head injury and torn shoulder. With no way to go but up, Rose has to lead the climb to the summit. When night falls they still have a long way to go and are forced to bivouac on a cliffside ledge. The next day, as a storm approaches, Bret drifts in and out of consciousness. It's up to Rose to save them both.

AWWWFULLLLLLLL
I wish more climbing movies like this would be made.
Great scenery, acting and lessons to be learned throughout the movie.
A lovely romantic-drama. 10/10.
Not perfect, but entertaining
I'm not a climber, so the accuracy of the technical jargon wasn't a concern to me. I thought the cinematography was excellent and the story suspenseful enough, and didn't think the acting was bad at all. I'd like to see how this was made. There was an obvious continuity error at the end that shouldn't have been missed (a wound on the female lead completely disappears),and some of the climbing segments showed rocks they were supposedly climbing that they obviously weren't, but that wasn't enough for me to consider this a bad film. I didn't particularly like the way it ended, but I've seen worse. I thought it was entertaining overall.
