Michael Ledo Sam Worthington is convicted of a crime he claims he did not commit. He goes out on the ledge of a building, in what we know early on is a diversionary tactic as he conspires with his brother (Jamie Bell) to prove his innocence. He requests Lydia "Grim Reaper" Mercer (Elizabeth Banks) to be the person to talk him down. By the nickname, her track record of talking people down has been less than desirable. She is hungry to save someone while fighting her hangover.The film uses a good intense sound track to raise the thriller level as Jamie and his girlfriend (Genesis Rodriguez) attempt to prove Worthington is innocent.Good intensity. Minor expected twists.F-bomb, no sex, no nudity, Genesis Rodriguez in bra/panties.

adonis98-743-186503 Man on a Ledge is truly a terrific film it starts as a suicide movie and turns into an action thriller which keeps you at the edge of your seat and you really want to see what is going to happen next. Also William Sadler and Sam Worthington look like father and son a little bit and Ed Harris gives a great performance as the bad guy also Elizabeth Banks is amazing. Some of the stunts were also real and Harris gave a big bravo to Sam for doing them. If you like good action movies that they have an actual plot and a good acting you will definitely find enjoying this movie. I give it a 10 out of 10 because watching Jake Sully jumping from a rooftop is always awesome!!!

vchaser Love this movie. Reminds me of the film noir type. Heist movie with beautiful NYC scenes, action, humor and a nice twist at the end. Sam Worthington, Elizabeth Banks, Ed Burns and Anthony Mackie do a fantastic job of building tension between the main characters. The dialog is quick & moves the plot along. The action sequences are thrilling without any blood or guts. It's an excellent film to watch, not jerky camera like so many movies today.There's some wonderful aerial shots of Madison Avenue, cars, people and buildings. The Roosevelt Hotel is also gorgeous and makes for a beautiful locale. Since it's not on Netflix I bought the Blu-Ray edition at Walmart for $7 which is well worth it.

ata7091 The movie contains some ridiculous scenes.For instance I didn't quite understand the humor going on between Joey and Angie in that serious and dangerous situation they were in!! This itself drew my attention away from the seriousness of the movie and how thrilling the movie should have seemed to viewers!!Expected a better and more professional movie!I found the story similar to "16 Blocks" . Man On A Ledge is not a waste of time. Worth watching at least once! but I liked "16 Blocks" more than this one; The cast and everything.I personally gave 6 stars for this one and 10 stars to for 16 Blocks.
