The Ledge (2022)
3/10
I want to like it but... it's pretty terrible
3 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
As an indie film with unknown actors I want to be fair. Yes of course this isn't go to have the big budget so the bad CGI can be glaringly obvious at times, but I do feel that all could have been forgiven with a good script - which certainly was not the case here.

The acting is fairly mediocre but I do think that is in large part to the awful script. The friend Zach who *SPOILER* gets stabbed in the leg halfway through is probably the only believable actor. The rest I'm sure do their best with this poor script but it feels very forced and unnatural.

The villain, Josh, is just an awful character. Do these truly evil people really exist? Where their mates are good deep down but don't know how to stand up to him? If so the world is a poor place. I also didn't believe someone who was so horrible and treated women so poorly (he didn't try and hide it from Kelly and Sophie) would be able to have an affair with his mates partner for years. What in the world was she attracted to?!

In a word, disappointing.
