Yeah the extreme sports took a front and center approach rather than the criminality. The way that they tried to portray the criminals as eco warriors was dumb and it would have been better if they had stuck with the original story of how they were stealing to finance their extreme sport lifestyle. Instead they had a billionaire financier and only started to rob banks once his finances were frozen... that was terrible and the bank robbery wasn't even that good and it was also completely impractical that they shot their way out when they had something like 40 cops there waiting for them as they exited the bank.
The Angel Falls scenes were fantastic. Those were very tense moments when they were free-climbing. It is exceptionally unrealistic that one person, let alone both of them, would survive a drop from the top.... Why did Utah jump after him with arms outstretched? It's just mind-numbingly stupid. According to an article I read it is technically possible to survive a jump from the falls but you would have to do it in a very specific manner in order to dodge the rocks at the bottom and you would have to go feet first yet even then it would almost certainly result in you losing consciousness or breaking bones just from the impact alone.
Oh well, that movie is filled with physical impossibilities so I shouldn't get so worked up over minor details.
