1. Imagine you are 8 and have never been to the movies to see an action flick (unless you think Bambi qualifies)
2. Imagine that the director is the one being swept away by an avalanche or dangling over a cliff edge
3. Imagine that the film's climbing advisors are so incompetent that it is they who are sliding down the mountain after their packs.
4. Ignore the characters and the "action". Put some good music on your iPod and just enjoy the New Zealand South Island travelogue.
5. Get drunk. Very, v e r y drunk.
6. Pretend it is a Star Trek film, with Kirk and Bones and monsters consisting of 3 blokes under a carpet. Watch out for the tribbles.
7. Get high. Very, v e r y high. 28,000 feet is not nearly high enough.
8. Take a small sip of vodka every time you spot a technical gaffe.
9. Make out in the back row.
10. Write a review while watching the film, to fill-in the gaps.
