The Ledge - Yay Netflix!

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I watched some off movies tonight.

The summary for this film says Terrence Howard is in it and he's trying to talk a guy down off a ledge while dealing with major issues of his own.

Interesting!

However...

The real film is about Liv Tyler and the male lead (not Terrence Howard) falling in love. Now since you've probably realized the male lead is the guy on the ledge you can figure that things don't go smoothly.

There's a LOT of symbolism in this film and not so subtle messages. Hint: If you're religious, you should probably skip it...

The Liv/male lead (I don't know his name) stuff took up WAY too much time, although they did show me Liv's tits, so there's that. I will say they have chemistry though.

Everyone acts very well throughout, especially Patrick Wilson.

All the elements are solid enough, the pacing is just a mess. Again, despite slow parts, I wasn't bored. (I was playing a video game while watching though...)
