I guess the filmmakers didn't bother to check if that title was already used.

And when I saw that, I couldn't help but think of "Everybody to the Limit":

Actually its title is stunningly similar to another badass must see climbing film titled "Take it to the Limit". Check out the trailer: http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi143130905/

However, I have actually seen this film about the Huber brothers and highly recommend it. The cinematography showing the Valley and El Cap is beautiful, and you really see how insanely badass (and just plain insane) these big wall speed climbers are. They are friggin running up this thing and place like 2 pieces of gear per pitch (ok, maybe an exaggeration, but not that far off). Definitely check it out, whether you are trad or big wall or not, I think you will enjoy it.
