Skywalkers: A Love Story

Skywalkers: A Love Story_480P

It obvious we have social media to thank for people behaving like these two. People who want to go and risk life, break laws and record the adventure for their ego boost. If anyone wants to do that, go for it. But do it for you and not because of IG likes and attention seeking. Go and watch a real skilled climber like Alex Honnold free soloing El Capitan in his documentary. Skywalkers is a cringe fest, far too long documentary about a childish diva throwing her toys out of her pram and her boyfriend recording tall building climbs for social media. They don't actually climb the buildings, they use stairs and ladders. By the end of the show I was actually hoping one of them would meet the end. Shame!

I feel physically sick at heights, that movie THE FALL, I put myself through. I have to say I'm a huge horror fan.... but these types of movies with heights really make me recoil and fully feel fear. Now this is horror to me but real life. But I just felt absolutely wrapped up in the story of these 2 and found myself willing them to actually manage their mammoth final act. It's a documentary but I felt myself getting fully drawn into the "story". What a couple.... all these reviews "criminals" blah blah. Imagine having the will and determination of being so confident and successful at such a niche thing? I was emotional at the end, their emotions were real and you felt that. Very well done docfilm. I recommend fully.

The final scenes of this movie brought tears to the eyes of at least one 32-year-old man. Firstly, I want to highlight how remarkable Angela's personality is. I had the brief privilege of knowing her in real life, and I am truly amazed by how such a seemingly delicate girl can encompass so many emotions, bravery, and inner strength. While I do not know Ivan personally, I am confident he is equally outstanding. Secondly, I am delighted with how well Netflix portrayed the characters and emotions of these two individuals. This film isn't just about roofers; it's a phenomenal love story between two people.

Really bad timing to be making a documentary about two Russian influencers, Netflix. It just shows that you care more about money than anything just like these two people do. As soon as the war breaks out Instagram and Facebook gets banned in Russia. This couple then loses their income. They are torn between leaving their family behind but ends up leaving anyways because they love money and likes so much. They try to point it out as an art and a love for climbing but we all know it's all about the money and the fame. Qoute: "I refuse to return to Moscow and have a plain boring life". Meanwhile there is a war going on... With that said the documentary itself is ok with some breathtaking views but the timing is way way off and I for one feel no love for these people.

Admittedly I couldn't bear to watch most of this. It made my palms sweat just watching these two daredevils put their lives at risk to earn a living. I was hoping for a more in-depth look into the practice of skywalking, but I was disappointed. We only get the perspective from these two aficionados and practitioners so the whole thing is quite insular. The documentary could have done with a few more commentators, a wider perspective to add some context and interest. It's also a sad world where every stunt must be curated into a Instagram-worthy moment. What we get is this: one attractive man and one attractive woman performing convention and stereotype atop skyscrapers, as opposed to performing convention and stereotype on the ground in front of a waterfall, with a designer bag, or in a flash sports car. When a daredevil risks their life for the thrill of it as is the case in the incredible documentary, Man On Wire, the motivation is unsullied by profit. But when people are risking their lives in order to get attention on social media platforms, the whole thing seems a bit off. Not to take away from the incredible bravery required to do such death-defying activities. But this documentary leans heavily into the cult of individualism, the ail-pervasive idea that, to quote the movie, 'on the other side of fear is your full potential.' Or, if you want to be realistic about it, a senseless and totally preventable death. However, the romance story is quite compelling, following the relationship as it blooms and devolves over time. Other than that it is all quite bland and repetitive. I hope for their sake they've moved on from their high-altitude Instagram careers and are now living a happy life doing something less stupid.

Absolutely blown away by this one. The couple was so good on camera, that at times it seemed like a scripted foreign film. Their passion for climbing these ultimate skyscrapers and pushing the boundaries was so inspiring. Obviously we shouldn't be promoting trespassing in any form, but these two made it an actual art. Their grace and dedication to this crazy "hobby" was so fun to watch. Finally, the fact that it was paralleled with a brewing love story also contributed to its success. In a sport where "flying solo" was the norm, this couple made climbing so romantic. The drone and GoPro shots were magnificent and I'm so glad I gave it a shot. I think everyone should. It's really worth the watch.

"Skywalkers: A Love Story" is a breathtaking film that takes audiences to new heights, both emotionally and physically. Based on the real-life daredevils who climb skyscrapers, this movie offers a gripping blend of romance and high-stakes adventure. The cinematography is nothing short of spectacular, capturing dizzying heights and heart-pounding moments with stunning clarity. The true-life story of these courageous climbers is beautifully intertwined with a compelling love story, making every moment resonate deeply. The performances are authentic and moving, drawing viewers into the lives and passions of these extraordinary individuals. "Skywalkers: A Love Story" is an exhilarating and emotional journey that you won't want to miss. Personally I loved it, and the movie had gripped me from beginning till the end!

Very false documentary, video quality and editing that cannot be done with a simple drone and GoPro without involving special effects and AI. Irresponsible, the protagonists (if they are not actors) without attachment to life who do not want to earn their bread by working like everyone else. The production company is irresponsible for making content about illegal activities that invite useless risk, even though it indicates it in the opening credits. It has a rating of 1 because there is no 0. Young couple risking what seems certain to be a short life. The saddest thing is that there is some rating of 10.

I followed their journey for a while now on Instagram now and all I can say it's a "take a deep breath" and prepare yourself for a breathtaking journey. We are witnessing the experiences of 2 amazing artists that commited their lives and their love for the ultimate Skywalk. It's raw and simply beautiful. The story about overcoming challenges, understanding the need of communication and trust. It's not a movie for the lightheaded people You can only achieved the highest highs when you get out of your comfort zone. Everything is possible. Just find the balance. Thank you for sharing your story with us.
