"...Great bear. Great Hopkins... USA Today - p.6D - Susan Wloszczyna
"...[THE EDGE] exhibits a restrained literateness that's quite effective..." Box Office - p.42 - Kim Williamson
"...A barbed, great-looking adventure film written cannily by David Mamet and directed with verve and fury by Lee Tamahori..." New York Times - p.E10 - Janet Maslin
"...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 - p.52-3 - Lisa Schwarzbaum
"...THE EDGE's fusion of Mametspeak with a true life adventure remains brawny entertainment..." Los Angeles Times - p.F4 - Kenneth Turan
"...It's subtly funny in the way it toys with the cliches of the genre....The movie contains glorious scenery..." Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (09/26/1997)
