MAN ON A LEDGE [2012]

Asger Leth's Man On A Ledge is filled with plotholes galore, shoddy editing, some ridiculous coincidences, groan worthy dialogue, aimless side-stories and paper-thin characters but for some reason it remains pretty damned entertaining.
The whole time I was thinking it could have heavily benefited if it was filmed with Tony Scott's flair for silly action sequences, like swooping crane & copter shots and snappy editing.  Go in expecting nothing more than dumb fun and come out satisfied with just that.
