Oh boy, oh boy, do I love a good movie. I love getting a box of Hot Tamales, a big bucket o’ popcorn, and surrendering myself to the power of film. But my absolute favorite part about going to the movies is not throwing up. Love a good non-vomit experience, and that’s what movies are all about...until now.

The Walk retells the story of Philippe Petit (played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and his infamous 1974 tightrope walk between the Twin Towers. In the press screening, numerous reviewers experienced vertigo. Turns out a 3D, 20-minute tightrope scene set 1,362 feet above the ground is triggering some serious nausea. Go figure.

With several people describing feelings of dizziness, queasiness, and extreme anxiety, director Robert Zemeckis probably feels...thrilled. “[The goal] was to evoke the feeling of vertigo. We worked really hard to put the audience up on those towers and on the wire,” Zemeckis said.

Well, mission accomplished. Gross, barfy mission accomplished.
