 PRECIOSA ENSEÑANZA Nov 25, 2008
Esta es la historia de un hombre arrogante, superficial y egoista que no piensa mas que en el mismo; esa arrogancia le lleva a llenar su vida de retos entre los cuales esta escalar los Himalaya para engrandecer su fama, dejando sola y abandonada a su esposa embarazada de su primer hijo; en esta tremenda odisea entre India y China, es hecho prisionero de guerra, se convierte en profugo y llega a caer tan bajo que se convierte en un vagabundo en la arida region del Tibet, donde llega a conocer al gran Dalai Lama...y este encuentro CAMBIA SU CORAZON; grandiosa pelicula, donde la espiritualidad, el valor de las cosas intangibles y el amor por los seres que amamos y herimos alguna vez con nuestro orgullo se imponen de una forma maravillosa; hay lagrimas, alegria, pruebas duras y todo es una oda a la amistad sincera entre un niño escogido por la divinidad y un extranjero aleman...asimismo nos muestra la horrible crudeza de la guerra y la crueldad del hombre hacia sus semejantes causada por sus ansias de poder y dominio; una pelicula INOLVIDABLE que nos lleva a sentir amor por lo que realmente vale en esta vida: el alma humana.
 Only for Brad Pitt fans Nov 23, 2008
This movie bears little relationship to the book, which is a narrative of one man's difficult struggle to exist under trying circumstances. The book is fascinating, and tells us much about life in Tibet. The movie, on the other hand, was transformed into a story about how Brad Pitt discovers meaning in life. At least I'm guessing that was the theme, because I quit watching after an hour. Brad Pitt's voyage of discovery entertains little, and informs not at all. The one plus is that the scenery is spectacular.
 A look at Tibet through the eyes of a foreigner Nov 17, 2008
Brad Pitt may not be the greatest actor in the world but he certainly isn't the worst since his participation in this informative and entertaining film about Tibet's eternal struggle with China would never have been made. I think it's a worthy effort on his part and as far as leading performances go, Pitt isn't too bad. I believe the same year or maybe a year later, Martin Scorsese also made his film about Tibet but that film concentrated on the evolution of the Dalai Lama and I found that to be even more enlightening than this story of a arrogant Austrian mountain climber who is changed spiritually by his experiences in Tibet. The direction by Jean Jacques Arnaud (Quest for Fire, The Name of the Rose) is fine and there are some fine supporting performances by David Thewlis as Pitt's companion, B.D. Wong as ambituous Tibetian agent, Ric Young as Mao Tse-Yung, and Mako as a high priest. Thus if you have an interest in Tibet's history, I do recommend this film and Scorsese's "Kundun".
AMAZING SCENERY Nov 02, 2008
I BOUGHT THIS BECAUSE I LIKE BRAD PITT, IT WENT FAR BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS. SO WELL CAST, WELL ACTED, ENTERTAINING AND THOUGHTFUL. MR PITT DELIVERS AND ONCE AGAIN DISPLAYS HIS ABILITY TO BECOME THE CHARACTER-NOT UNUSUAL FOR HIM. THANKS BRAD
