Man on a Ledge

Directed by: Asger Leth

Cast: Sam Worthington, Elizabeth Banks, Jamie Bell, Ed Harris, Anthony Mackie

Running Time: 1 hr 42 mins

Rating: PG-13

Release Date: January 27, 2012

Plot: An ex-cop (Worthington) threatens to jump from a Manhattan hotel, while trying to get revenge on the man who sent him to prison.

Who’S It For? Does the slightest fear of heights make you giggle with nervous excitement? If not, you’re looking at an average thriller with a good gimmick.

Expectations: I knew very little about this flick. Like the title said, I figured there would be a man … and he would be on a ledge. It was an early screening and the first 2012 film I saw.

Scorecard (0-10)

Actors:

Sam Worthington as Nick Cassidy: My favorite Worthington performance is as David in The Debt. Let me clarify that a little, it’s really the only one I have appreciated. »

What this situation requires is a handsome maverick with a decent set of balls on them. That’s why I’ve stepped up to create some action projects to keep Gina Carano on our screens for the foreseeable future. You’re welcome.

Punch Up!

It’s inevitable that, if Carano »
