One of my favourite

This is a typical Sylvester Stallone movie from his hay days. The movie is filled with action, evil villains,
and is a thriller from the beginning to end. John Lithgow has played the role of the primary villain and has done a
fantastic job. He is usually a comedian and so this role is out of his comfort zone, and he has done an excellent job.
The movie is shot in the Rockies and some of the photography is very well done indeed. The shots of the mountain climbing scenes
are well done. The story line is actually also quite gripping and it keeps the viewer enthralled to the very
end. If you are looking for a good entertainer on a saturday evening, then Cliffhanger would not be a bad bet. One way
in which the movie could have been improved is to perhaps increase the romantic aspect of the film, between Stallone
and his significant other in the movie.But the movie is a good source of entertainment for all.It won't be winning any academey awards,
but John Lithgow's negative role in the movie is probably the highlight. The evil and malice exhibited by his character is worthy of praise.
