This review is from: MSP Films In Deep Ski DVD (DVD)

I'm a big fan of Matchstick Productions and have pre-ordered each of their movies for the past few years and "In Deep" was no exception.

Last year's BluRay was a nice addition but a few of us suspected than only part of the movie was actually recorded in High Definition since there seemed to be gaps in the quality. We hoped this would be remedied for the 2009-2010 movie.

The consensus among the 8 of us watching the film was that it was boring. There was no central theme, there was no storyline, details on skiers and locations was lacking, and the soundtrack was lame (either too slow, too drawn out, or both - i.e. Phil Collins and Billy Joel).

On the positive side, the segment to Shane McConkey was very tastefully done. I never met Shane but as an "old" skier (currently 32) I always looked up to him. I always though that if he and Chris Davenport were able to pull of their insane skills then I had no excuse to ski short of 100%. I would have loved a documentary on Shane - a sequel to "There's Something About McConkey" but given the limitation of it being a ski movie first and foremost, Shane's segment was great.

Overall, however, I would not recommend this movie to my friends - or purchase it again. While the BluRay is nice I'd recommend several other movies instead, including MSP's older "Ski Movie" (one of my favorites).

Some of my other ski porn manufacturer's to check out include; Poor Boyz, Teton Gravity (aka TGR), and the notorious Warren Miller Entertainment (don't hate - it may be corporate but his roots paved the way for the small guys!).

Cheers
