Review: Man on a Ledge

I thought the movie started off pretty solid. Then, somehow, it shifted into something kinda dumb and it certainly wasn't saved by the tedious script and Sam Worthington's bad acting. It would probably entertain some people because it has its own way of trying to grab the audience's attention to the preposterous plot (because at my screening the audience were enthralled), but for me it was nothing more than decent. Most of the action sequences were well done and there were some aspects of it that got me interested (more in the beginning), but the characters were lifeless and didn't feel believable, which is obviously a huge failing. For its 102 minute duration, the film felt much longer than it should have. Man on a Ledge isn't a bad movie in any way, but their were parts of the film that definitely needed some work. It was decent at best. The last 15 minutes were awesome.
2.5/4 (Rent It)
