Reviews
|
The New York Times -
All of the performers are upstaged by the film's breathtaking backdrop, and by the fast and furious way Renny Harlin, the director, approaches action sequences.
|
|
Empire -
Action filmmaking at its best; a career high for director Harlin and arguably Stallone as well.
|
|
Austin Chronicle -
It grabs you by the viscera in the opening prologue and for the next two hours rarely lets go.
|
|
Chicago Sun-Times -
Movies like this are machines for involving us and thrilling us. Cliffhanger is a fairly good machine.
|
|
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
As directed by Renny Harlin (the director of Die Hard 2), Cliffhanger passes the principal tests of an action movie - it has truly awe-inspiring stunts and special effects and many of its suspense sequences will leave you with your heart in your mouth.
