The Walk attempts a tricky balancing act between thrilling visuals and fact-based drama -- and like its wire-walking protagonist, pulls it off with impressive élan.

The Walk turns what is a relatively straightforward act - albeit a scarily placed one - into something stunning by restoring a sense of physicality to what's happening onscreen. Nov 10, 2015

His hallmark as a director is his passion for visual effects and his use of CGI and 3D is dazzling. Oct 14, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Zemeckis's failing is his inattention to every other detail, but The Walk undeniably exists for its climax: one stunt it does manage to pull off flawlessly. Oct 14, 2015 | Full Review…

The Walk is sometimes easier to watch with your eyes shut, just for a few seconds' respite from the plunging peril of being poised, wobbling, 110 storeys above the 3D void on a tightrope over Manhattan. Oct 5, 2015 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It's two-thirds of a great film but the slow start and unremarkable first hour hold it back. Still, for those who buy into the precept that "good things are worth waiting for," The Walk unquestionably delivers. Oct 5, 2015 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Initially a toe-curling mix of The Pink Panther and Amélie, this fable ultimately offers pure entertainment. Life of Pi in the sky. Oct 4, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The death-defying act seemingly lends itself well to a big screen adaptation but due to a lack of story to mine from, its 123 mins play flat - despite the depth supplied from its strong use of 3D. Apr 19, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The special effects are astonishing and in the IMAX 3D it feels like you are walking as Petit walks. The rest of the film is fine and certainly watchable if flawed. Apr 18, 2019 | Rating: C | Full Review…

For all its storytelling shortcomings, The Walk is a must-see for its perilous, vertiginous, sweaty-palmed finale. Apr 8, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's a high note to end on, but the road to get there is so unremarkable and stale that it makes it difficult to exalt the movie as a whole. Mar 1, 2019 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review…

I found myself treating my seat as if it were the balancing rod, peering over to look below; my shoulders and feet tightened with each immaculately filmed step. This is why we go to the movies. Feb 7, 2019 | Full Review…
