Rating: 2/4 --
I laughed frequently, but the problem is that I'm not sure the director intended there to be as much humor in his film as I uncovered.

...The well-matched actors grab their parts with disciplined ferocity. Baldwin does his best work in a long time....And Hopkins creates one of his most satisfying, complex characters...
Entertainment Weekly
Rating: C+ --
...not a terrifically memorable piece of filmmaking.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
The Edge, for all its hokiness, makes it real. When Hopkins comes down from the mountain, I believed he was looking at the world with new eyes.

Newsweek
...A barbed, great-looking adventure film written cannily by David Mamet and directed with verve and fury by Lee Tamahori...
New York Times
Rating: 4/4 --
A riveting story of survival, and the most rousing and gripping outdoor adventure since the original Jaws. One of 1997's very best films.
Fantastica Daily
It's not hard to read Charles' journey in 'The Edge' as analogous to its author's: the library-dwelling intellectual using his wits to brave rougher elements.

Product Description:
An aging billionaire (Hopkins) and a fashion photographer (Baldwin) having an affair with the rich man's wife must struggle against the elements--including a man-eating bear--after their plane goes down in the Alaskan wild. An unusually dense and cerebral wilderness thriller, penned by literatus David Mamet and helmed by Tamahori (ONCE WERE WARRIORS).
