4.0 out of 5 stars Why not available in widescreen format???, July 8 2007

This review is from: Edge of Madness (DVD)

This is a decent film, it makes one think of those who came to Canada before us. I have watched it on pay television. However, I am left wondering as to why it is not available in a WS format ( in the english version at least ), if the format description above is accurate.

The natural beauty that is plentiful throughout the film cries out for it to be in widescreen, preferably in a letterbox format to really capture the beauty.

Tony, Manitoba.

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Edge of Madness (DVD)

What must it have been like in the 1800's, homesteading the Canadian plains, for a young woman in a marriage of convenience to a brutish husband? When the accents mingled curiously? I think I have acquired a sense of that because the effort of the film-makers to offer an authentic texture to the wilderness settlement.

The story is presented in the form of a mystery, altho the resolution is pretty easy to anticipate. It's the characters we meet along the way, situations, their interaction, their sensibilities, that move the story. But at a languid pace, like the times--when commuting was measured in hours and days.

The resilient young woman is the center of two plots and her determination is made plausbible by the immensely talented Caroline Dhavernas, and palatable with her offbeat beauty and lovely French-Canadian accent. The other actors acquit themselves well, even the normally amateurish Brendan Fehr. But only the direction (by Anne Wheeler) and photography contribute as much as Dhavernas does.

Not a great film, but fascinating if you want atmosphere, and a glimpse of a different era, and plenty of glimpses of a nude Dhavernas (seemingly more necessary for selling the movie than enhancing the story).

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Eye Candy, May 13 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Edge of Madness (DVD)

This movie stars Brendan Fehr and Corey Sevier. Corey is a great actor, I have been a fan of his since seeing him on "The WB's Black Sash". He has a great face, voice, and body. His ABS are very well defined, and he is only 19! Brendan, his acting is quite well as he plays the nasty character Simon. Brendan's scene where her rapes the girl is quite disturbing. The sex scene between Corey and the girl is quite erotic and very well done, it looked so real, maybe it was...I will admit this movie is not only for girls, I think that guys will like it too. I am a guy who enjoyed it with my girlfriend.
