    A Nod to the Rom/Coms of YesterYear
    The Cutting Edge is a classic movie and one which I never get tired of watching.

    The chemistry between Moira Kelly and D.B. Sweeney really sells this picture, even before you see the impressive scenery and fantastic skating sequences.

    The script is filled with quotable gems, (It's not like his nose was perfect) and what could be a fairly thin story (that, OK, has been done before) is lifted firmly out of the cliche zone by first class direction, a thumping early 90's pop soundtrack and breathtaking choreography.

    I can't fault this movie - it's one of my top five - and would recommend it as a family favourite.

    This movie gets a very enthusiastic 10/10 from me.
