Title: A Fun AT Trail DVD
Review: A lot of reviews of this DVD seem a bit harsh. Sure, the film-makers are young, shirtless dudes enjoying their hike with their buds. But what's wrong with that? Many AT hikers hike with friends, or at least begin the journey that way, and many AT hikers are just out of college. That actually made the DVD fun. Sure you see them having a beer, joking about showers and laundry, even using language such as "It was balls hot today!" That's reality, though. Granted, some of the hikers in this video are more interesting than others, but a couple of them are very likable. No, this DVD does not provide a lot of information about the trail useful to those who know nothing about the AT; however, how many people planning to watch this DVD don't already know the basic facts about the AT? No, it's not the one I'd give to someone as their introduction to the Trail, but it's a well-done documentary that highlights a lot of the "small moments" encountered during an AT hike. I enjoyed it.
Is the review positive or negative?
