Cliffhanger

A reboot of the 1993 Sylvester Stallone rock-climber flick best described as ‘Die Hard on a mountain’? Sure, why not? In lieu of Stallone returning, Lily James plays a rock climber who must save her sister (The First Omen’s Nell Tiger Free) and the son of a billionaire from kidnappers. It’s unclear if the film has the nostalgic pull of, say, Twisters, but the good news is it’s being directed by new-school B-movie maestro Jaume Collet-Serra, who knows just what to do with this kind of material.
