Review For Man on a Ledge
Man on a Ledge isn't a caper comedy. It's a heist picture, a thriller -- and a not-that-thrilling one at that. But the folks who made it have enough of a sense of humor to get how silly it is and run with that on occasion. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service The solution to "now what do we do for 103 minutes?" is to pile as many silly distractions into the running time as possible. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune 'Man on a Ledge' is our first legit contender for Best Worst movie of the year. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com This is one of the few movies that, with its skyscraper action scenes, probably needed to be made in 3-D. As it is, though, it's barely in 2-D - and really, I'm not sure it needed to be made at all. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger There's no escaping the sheer terror of a guy standing on a ledge that high up. "Man on a Ledge" delivers the sweats it intends to deliver. Tom Long-Detroit News A clumsily made thriller with very few thrills. Rafer Guzman-Newsday "Man on a Ledge" is not a film that will change the way we look at thrillers, but it is a film that has enough thrills to provide for a very entertaining ride Jeff Beck-Examiner.com Sam Worthington's Man On A Ledge is an absolute mess of a film, from start to finish. It's silly, dumb and ridiculous. Kristal Cooper-We Got This Covered The fact that it works is nothing short of a miracle. ... The balance between genuine threat and B-Movie silliness is just about right. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline Certainly enjoyable and occasionally tense despite some wobbly performances and plot holes. R. L. Shaffer-IGN DVD ...depending on your levels of credulity - and blood alcohol - it might just pass muster as a late-night six-pack flick. Matt Glasby-Flicks.co.nz It's pulp, airport fiction - the acting is mediocre, the characters are formulaic archetypes... but I didn't feel as if my time was wasted at all. Blake Howard-2UE That Movie Show Man on a Ledge flirts with B-movie greatness but comes up short thanks to the far-fetched plot device used to power a clunky hybrid of heist flick/Hitchcockian wrong-man thriller. Gary Dowell-Dark Horizons ... The ledge is the movie's most dynamic performer. Greg Maki-Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Here, Leth makes Worthington's ledge a constantly frightening gimmick and the pacing between scenes is so effective, you'd be on the edge of your seat if the film didn't constantly make you feel for the back of your chair. Sara Maria Vizcarrondo-Boxoffice Magazine a straight-up genre film with no ambition beyond keeping the audience minimally entertained with its workmanlike execution of a literally high-concept idea James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk Given that it stars action drone Sam Worthington, you'll be wishing they called it 'Man off a Ledge' before long. Anders Wotzke-Moviedex Yep, there's a man on a ledge in it. Grae Drake-Movies.com It's absolutely average. That's not exactly what you are looking for when your subject is about a man on a ledge. Jeff Bayer-The Scorecard Review From minute to minute it's ingenious, gripping stuff... Philip French-Observer [UK] There's something endearingly deranged about Ed Harris's performance as a conniving businessman ( ... ) perhaps he realised that the film wasn't going to be as good as we hoped and that he might as well pretend he was related to John Malkovich. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail [T]here is the problem of the man on the ledge being Sam Worthington... For the Great Mystery of Sam Worthington remains unsolved...: How is it that this guy is a movie star? He's got no screen presence, no charisma... MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher There's a professional slickness about the proceedings and it entertains for most of the time. -This is London
