Usage of "dramatically"?

Hello,

I wonder how native speakers accept the usage of "dramatically" in
sentences like "the mountain rises dramatically 1500 feet above the
surrounding terrain".

Does it feel like a cliche? Does it convey any real meaning? Can there
be a "drama" of a mountain simply standing? Is it simply a stronger
synonym for "impressively"?
