Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Syl Okay this is a spoof about documentary style movies about figure skating in Southern California. It's not supposed to be great but it has a great cast. I love Wendie Malick as the single mother obsessed with her daughter, Veda, who has a secret passion for cooking and would rather be in the kitchen than a skater. She has a Tonya Harding type J.C. Cain who would love to be the queen of the ice Capades and shows. She comes from a trailer park community. The third contestant is played by Marisa Janet Winokur (she won a Tony Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Musical for Hairspray). She plays Wendy, a girl from a wholesome supportive family and coached by her mother. She finally gets her dream coach after his client is eliminated. You see a lot of familiar faces like Jason Alexander as Zamboni Phil, Chris Hogan as the Professor, Kathy Griffin as Kathy Katz among others. I don't take this film seriously. Oh Scott Hamilton, Peter Carruthers, Kristi Yamaguchi show that they can poke fun at their sport.

Jackpollins I went to dollar tree today and paid a dollar for this film. After watching the half an hour I could sit through...I am tempted to go back tomorrow and depend I get my dollar back for having to sit through even 5 seconds of this movie. The film attempts to be a Christopher Guest clone on ice skating. One of the main reasons I bought it is that Jason Alexander was in it. I usually enjoy Jason Alexander's work. He usually has a great energy to him. Here it feels like he knows the movie is bad, so he just decided to not even try. He's half-assed in his role, and he is very lazy. As I mentioned earlier, I was only able to watch a half an hour of it. I am fully aware I cannot fully embrace a movie's terribleness if I did not see the whole thing, but I could not take it anymore. I hated this movie. Hated, hated, hated it. Tell you what, go to the dollar tree or amazon or ebay and get a cheap copy of this film, and prove to me you sat through the whole thing, and I will give you a cash amount. If you do not want to do that little project, do not spend a cent, and I mean not a cent, not even half a cent, not even 1/4 a cent on this god-awful film.

toolittlemine If you enjoy mocumentaries like Spinal Tap, Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show, etc. this movie will surely disappoint you. It may actually cause you to angrily curse your TV as you watch this stinky rental.In order for a mocumentary to work you need to have compelling characters with depth, humanity and truth. The reason the Christopher Guest works noted above work so well is that his films are largely unscripted. The talented actors who work with Guest are genius improvisational artists and very fine actors.Guest gives these actors a framework and allows them to create their work for his films. What they produce is at once quirky, touching and hilarious. You will find nothing like that in On Edge.Nearly every person in this horrible film acts way over the top, struggles to deliver terrible lines in a convincing way.Don't waste your time or money on this if you are expecting comedy. However if you enjoy seeing people being painfully degraded, then this hateful film might be for you. There is nothing remotely documentary about On Edge. The script is deplorable, the acting and direction even more so.

TimmyGUNZ Being a huge fan of mockumentaries, I liked the premise of "On Edge." Figure Skating is a great opportunity to create something very funny and original.That being said, this movie was so bad it was unwatchable. One of the big reasons I wanted to see this movie in the first place was because of the inclusion of Jason Alexander in the cast, but his performance in this film is painfully bad. I couldn't tell if it was because of over-acting or under-acting. Nothing about this movie seemed to flow. The jokes, if you even want to call them that, were so far away from funny that I found myself cringing at times. By calling this a mockumentary, "On Edge" taints what is usually a funny genre. "The Spinal Tap of Figure Skating" this movie is not.If you want to see how Mockumentaries are supposed to be done, then rent "Spinal Tap," "Best In Show," "A Mighty Wind," etc. Save yourself the $3.50 and do not rent "On Edge."
