Patagonia: A Ride Into the Wild (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Mark Beaumont and James Lowsley-Williams embark on an epic three-day cycling expedition through the wild and wonderful landscape of Patagonia. When first explored by Magellan in 1520, he named the land Patagonia which comes from Pentagon, the Portuguese for 'big feet', since tracks of the nomadic tribes of hunter gatherer's that he found were those of giants. Although any sign of giants has now rescinded, the home of Gaucho is big country with incredible landscapes and impressive volcanoes as far as the eye can see. James and Mark have a 300-kilometre route planned to take it all in.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
