    Man on a Ledge

    by Darkola

    I'd advise against listening to, or reading the critics reviews on this, I went to see this expecting to be a little disappointed, but came out pleased that I did see this movie, it had a good story, good characters, and good twists to it. I've read a few things about critics criticising how they can have come with two bags loaded with everything they need, but I think to movies like James Bond type stories, and how they always seem to have the right items with them, and wonder why the criticism isnt places on movies like that, that are bound to always be hit movies. Anyways, this is a really good story, with some details about each of its members that makes it more interesting, and even some joking in the movie, I'd give it 3 stars myself, go see it.

    Definitely not what it appears to be!

    Despite your normal critics opinion, which I believe they truly lack something, this movie was really good. The preview does it no justice at all, the plot was a great, purely revenge! Interesting twist and turns throughout the entire film, the action is there, the mystery is there, the hint of comedy a sweet touch! Overall this movie is something everyone could sit through and really enjoy, and to think we weren't even going to see this movie... Recommend you GO!

    Kept you on the (L)edge!

    The acting was great. Loved the good guys, hated the bad guys. The way the story began was intriguing and the follow through was very well done. It had a spin to it I didn't expect...I'd see it again.
