KevinE.Jan 31, 20056You might expect a story about a child Dalia Lama and a brash adventurer to exert most of its force on how they change each other through their time together. The story is weak in that regard. It's more effective as a political primer than a dramatic work. It's very episodic and really didn't provide the payoff I wanted.

60Despite some magnificent widescreen lensing, faultless ethnographic detail and a timely sympathy for the plight of the Tibetan people, director Jean-Jacques Annaud's true-life tale about a self-obsessed Austrian mountaineer who learns selflessness in the Himalayas too rarely delivers at a simple emotional level.

63Seven Years in Tibet is an ambitious and beautiful movie with much to interest the patient viewer, but it makes the common mistake of many films about travelers and explorers: It is more concerned with their adventures than with what they discover.
