Le richissime Charles Morse est fort jaloux de sa somptueuse épouse top model. D'autant plus qu'il est persuadé que Mickey, le séduisant photographe de sa femme, entretient une relation amoureuse avec elle. L'occasion de se débarrasser de l'amant gênant se presente au cours d'une expédition dans le grand Nord ou le photographe doit réaliser une serie de photos exotiques. Alors qu'il survole, les solitudes glacées de l'Alaska en compagnie du photographe et de son équipe, leur avion percute un vol d'oies sauvages. C'est le crash! (texte officiel du distributeur)

It is a pity that our film distributors did not think of putting this film in our cinemas. The beautiful landscape of Alaska would look great on the big screen. The scene when Hopkins and Baldwin fight the grizzly bear is really great and very realistic.

A solid 90s American thriller with all the classic elements. You've got the always excellent Anthony Hopkins, Alec Baldwin, and a bear that, fun fact, was actually friendly in real life – though you’d never guess it watching this.

An excellent, thrilling, smart and gritty survival drama with an intelligent man-eating swine! Anthony Hopkins steals the whole film for himself, he is smart and resourceful as always, but he also delivers his wisdom and ideas, which are far more interesting than a "how to survive in the wild" manual. Alec Baldwin is a good partner to him, but only a shadow in terms of acting. 80%.

An excellent adventure drama about a journey from the wilderness back to civilization. Anthony Hopkins as always acts perfectly and Baldwin is also extremely good. The scenes with the bear are filmed superbly and are sufficiently suspenseful. The music from Jerry Goldsmith, with beautiful motifs is also amazing. And the wonderful landscape. 70%

The Edge is today a legendary survival darma, with Anthony Hopkins in an unusual role, Alec Baldwin in his best years, and although Elle Macpherson is only for a moment, her delicacy and feminine beauty fit perfectly with the wilderness of the local fauna and flora, and the initial calm before the storm nicely entices the viewer. The scenes with the grizzly are thrilling, as well as the well-thought-out psychology and behavior of the characters.

A very fine film starring Hopkins, Baldwin, a bear, a haunting score by Jerry Goldsmith and Alaska.

My favourite film with a mega-charismatic Tony, a believable touch of psychology in a crisis situation where humanity merges with animal instincts, beautiful and untamed nature and one of the best physical fights between man and wild animal ever seen on film. It could have been shorter and the various narrative devices could have been connected more convincingly, but that doesn't change the fact that I'll always enjoy rewatching The Edge, reliving it with the same intensity. 85%
