Review: 'Edge of Darkness'

Braveheart goes death wish.

In the last 8 years since “Signs”, Mel Gibson has been busy making tabloid headlines but now he’s back as we love him- showing he still has lethal weapon acting skills at 54. If anything, Gibson has improved with age.

When this widower Boston cop watches his only child, a 24 year old daughter gunned down on his porch, he goes gonzo trying to nail her killers. Gibson is most impressive as an absolutely heartbreaking, grieving, loving dad.

While the corporate conspiracy theory is far-fetched, and the plot line goes all twisty and hard to follow sometimes, just go for the ride. It’s a bumpy, surprising one. You’ll never be bored! Welcome back Mel!!
