The Disney+ Earth Day special "Explorer: The Last Tepui,” from National Geographic, follows elite climber Alex Honnold (“Free Solo”) and a world-class climbing team led by National Geographic Explorer and climber Mark Synnott on a grueling mission deep in the Amazon jungle as they attempt a first-ascent climb up a 1000 foot sheer cliff. Their goal is to deliver legendary biologist and National Geographic Explorer Bruce Means to the top of a massive “island in the sky” known as a tepui. The team must first trek miles of treacherous jungle terrain to help Dr. Means complete his life’s work, searching the cliff wall for undiscovered animal species.

Audience Member A slight but very cool feature that has a bit of everything for a good outdoor exploration doc. While it is short and the outcome from the excursion seems a little superfluous given the initial intent to the casual viewer like myself, I am sure for Bruce and other biologists it was anything but. The doc provides a lot of great mountain climbing shots and the top of the tepui truly looks like an alien world. Very good for what it is. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member It is awesome, beautiful, well film and explains a lot of our undiscovered planet. Very educational documental. Love it. Want to see more of them, please Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Visually stunning and a much needed message, but feels too short when they could have shown us more Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member This doco was about an old dude with money who paid an expert team to climb through dangerous terrain then scale a cliff to find some tadpoles. He must have been pretty arrogant to think he could make it. The climbing/hiking team was cool, hence for my two stars. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Breakdown - bout 30 minutes of elder shaming - bout 3 minutes of elder accepting their worthlessness - bout 30 minutes of youth appreciation Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
