About this movie

Twelve people have walked on the moon, but only one man – Philippe Petit (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) – has ever walked in the immense void between the World Trade Center towers. Guided by his real-life mentor, Papa Rudy (Ben Kingsley), and aided by an unlikely band of international recruits, Petit and his gang overcome long odds, betrayals, dissension and countless close calls to conceive and execute their mad plan. Academy Award winning director Robert Zemeckis uses advanced technology in the service of an emotional, character-driven story. The Walk is a love letter to Paris and New York City in the 1970s, but most of all, to the Towers of the World Trade Center. DFL/188/2015-MUM

Ratings and reviews

The movie is fast moving and has a decent narrative. Towards the end it drags a bit and there is no way you will want to recall the movie. No loss if you pass this one.

Gives me goosebumps when the wire walk scene was going on he did something Impossible. He dint lost concentration even though there were police men on both the ends. The best part he slept on the wire!!!

A very inspiring movie based on true story... the story of philippe pettit, an adventurous wire walker literally is one of a kind
