Review of Man on a Ledge (2012) by James M — 12 Jul 2013

An interesting premise makes a very average film. Sam Worthington plays an ex-cop who uses a possible suicide attempt from a hotel ledge as a decoy for a diamond heist. With a better script, fleshed-out characters and a little directorial flair, this could have been a really good film, instead it's ridiculous, formulaic nonsense.

Aside from Ed Harris, the acting is rather poor, especially from a very miscast Elizabeth Banks.

Alfred Hitchcock could've made a masterpiece out of this.
