Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

actionfilm-2 Nothing unique or ambitious about Riding The Edge. A teenage dirt-biker is recruited to help negotiate the release of his scientist dad, held hostage in the middle east, and ends up mounting the entire rescue all by his lonesome. Well actually he has more than a bit of help from Catherine Mary Stewart who has, as the video box describes it, "surprising skill in hand to hand fighting", and the dirt-biker is also aided by a courageous young (12 year old?) Afghan local. Of course, anyone even remotely familiar with Catherine Mary Stewart knows that hand to hand fighting is as foreign to her as a Big Mac (not meant as an insult! She's in great shape), so all we get are a couple of waist level karate kicks. The film did manage to hold my interest until the end so I guess it ranks at least a 3. And two very interesting things did happen at the conclusion, a well staged dam burst, and the dirt-biker shows his gratitude to the Afghan youngster by leaving him wounded and behind as everyone else climbs aboard a helicopter and flies off!

Comeuppance Reviews "Riding The Edge" is a fun movie. The plot is about John Harmon who is a scientist. He has invented a solar power satellite. But then he's kidnapped by middle eastern terrorists, the only person who can save him is his son Matt. Matt is a dirt-bike champion who uses his skills to defeat the terrorists while also figuring out who are the spies in the government.The only problem with the movie is that the second half is too slow. Besides that, The movie is fun. The performances are average. There's one Afghan boy named Lawrence, that's not very believable.In the end: The movie is silly, but it keeps your interest.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com
