The Unreal movie premiere last Saturday was no joke.

If you remember the movie production group that went by The Collective, they were pretty awesome. Anthill has now taken the reigns (no pun intended...equine forces are involved here). 

They rode on glaciers, they rode in Hawaii...they rode down a mountain with a bunch of stampeding horses?? This is not a proper movie review by any means, more of just a "hey, if you didn't catch Unreal at The Egyptian in Boise the other night, you should try to see it by some other means"-type of write-up.

Gone is the "Crusty Deamons of Dirt" style of hand-held filming of some guys launching off cliffs put to death metal. All these guys have style, some of them have tricks (most are executed on natural terrain), and most of the footage, beginning with a stunning Brett Rheeder opening, is of them going fast. I don't do backflips, so I identify more with watching people go much faster than I can.

Also when you're watching: Brandon Semenuk starts driving his pickup to the top of a mountain. At that point, pay attention. One. Continuous. Shot.
