    My dad and I are huge fans of Stallone and Cliffhanger is one of his finest. 2 thumbs up.

    He's slightly more articulate than usual, but the lines still fall from his lips like beaten boxers to the mat. Not that it much matters, given the constant mayhem.

    Movies like this are machines for involving us and thrilling us. Cliffhanger is a fairly good machine.
