• 飾演Andy的洛魯馬德里表現非常出色，這個角色並不容易詮釋，因為他僅能用眼神和肢體語言來表達挫敗感。
• 《登峰心旅》的畫面極優美，藝術性與娛樂性兼備。
• 廣受好評的導演佩普迪奧克諾說了一個精彩的故事，充滿赤裸裸的情感，有時幾乎令人不忍卒睹。

Reviews
• Ruru Madrid as Andy gives a wonderful performance in a very difficult role that demands of him to present his frustration in very subtle tones, just with his eyes and body stance.
• “Above the Clouds” is a very beautiful film, which manages to present its themes with artistry and entertainment.
• Critically acclaimed director Pepe Diokno gives us another story that is beautifully told, with raw emotions that make the film almost painful to watch at times.
• “Excellent two lead performances” – The Hollywood Reporter
