The Edge

I growing to love Lee Tamahori`s work more and more every day. Here he`s working with a David Mamet story and what a story it is. No real twists to speak of here, just some interesting character examinations. Anthony Hopkins is his usually brilliant self and amazingly enough Alec Baldwin keeps up with him. Harold Perrineau of recent LOST fame and who I just watched in that ROMEO + JULIET delivers and mighty strong performance as well but the real treat here is Bart the Bear. One of the most famous bears in Hollywood, Bart gives an Oscar worthy show here. Elle Macpherson and LQ Jones provide fine support and look carefully to catch Kelsa Kinsly towards the end. Overall one of the most satisfying films around with truly gorgeous visuals and some mighty fine action, all with a plot to back it up!
