Safety Third

About This Movie

Safety Third is a curious blend of adrenaline and absurdity, giving us an intimate look into the life of Brad Gobright, a climber who straddles the line between daring and reckless. Cedar Wright’s approach feels both personal and raw, capturing those moments where bravery meets foolishness. The pacing is fitting for an adventure film, often slowing to let the viewer soak in the stunning landscapes while also ramping up during the climbing sequences. The real charm lies in Brad's personality—he's relatable, portraying the struggles of a 'dirtbag' lifestyle, living on the edge, literally and figuratively. It’s not just about climbing; it’s a commentary on ambition, risk, and what it means to chase your passions, amidst the laughter and the danger. Quite a ride, really.
