      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    An incredible production with its visually stunning location filming on the spectacular Dolomite mountain range at an elevation of 13,000 feet above Cortina, Italy, Cliffhanger is a nerve-shuddering adventure peaked with terrorist suspense. Stallone plays a mountain rescue team member who is called upon to face off with a villainous crime lord, portrayed by Lithgow. This is one nonstop action thriller sure to leave you at the edge of your seat. (Gary Reber)

    Reason #2 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I feel that WSR has provided me with information that has helped me understand an industry I knew very little about. I have used your reviews on equipment and DVDs to make purchasing decisions. I usually feel that I know more than the sales people at most electronic stores. I really do love WSR!
