Movie trailer and editorial reviews

"...The special effects seen here are as perfect and hard-won as [Stallone's] musculature, and that's saying a lot..."
New York Times - Janet Maslin (05/28/1993)

"...CLIFFHANGER lives up to is title as a two-hour rollercoaster ride that never stops from first minute to last. A high-octane action suspenser with thrilling vertiginous footage unlike anything seen before in a feature..."
Variety - Todd McCarthy (05/24/1993)

"...It is one of the achievements of the movie to convince us that Lithgow and Stallone are a good match....Many of the most hazardous stunts in this movie were obviously not faked..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (05/28/1993)

Acrophobia anyone?

Created: 16/04/08
Once the action began, Cliffhanger kept me on the edge of my seat through the whole viewing. Although not a huge fan, I really enjoyed this film as well as my other Stallone favorite, First Blood. Co-starring John Lithgow, who plays a serious sinister role, Cliffhanger gives the viewer a unique panorama of the Rocky Mountains. Not prone to acrophobia, I found my stomach churning in fear around every corner. Apparently the movie was good enough to be nominated for 3 Oscars as well as 7 other nominations. This DVD is now in my personal collection and enjoy an occasional additional look--definitely worth watching.

Skyway Robbery

Created: 04/01/11
100 million to be exact. Suspense thriller. Unusually brilliant performance by Stallone while John Lithgow is outstanding as the heavy. Spectacular scenery!
