The Edge (1997)

A great performance by Hopkins and Baldwin. Wish they had done more with some of the side characters. One of them is needlessly thrown-away a little too early. They also don't use LQ Jones, who plays the owner of the lodge in the film. All in all a great film. 1 of my favourites.

The Edge (1997)

A mediocre survival tale propped up by the performance of Bart The Bear and Sir Anthony Hopkins. Watchable, and somewhat quotable, "SAY IT!...... WE ARE GOING TO KILL THE BEAR!"
