Jagged Edge Reviews
It's mostly preposterous but juicy fun.

It is the visual ambiguity, the murkiness of the cinematography, that is often maddening.

Close - who was not nominated for this role, despite earning nods the prior three years - is a supreme heroine, endlessly watchable and perfectly sincere.
| Original Score: 6/10 | May 24, 2019
The biggest fault of Jagged Edge is that whatever suspense it manages to generate in its climactic scenes is achieved artificially, through tricky editing and manipulative ''danger'' music.

Slick and manipulative, Jagged Edge is nonetheless a vastly enjoyable psychological thriller due to the expert turns from Jeff Bridges, Glenn Close, and Robert Loggia, who won a Supporting Actor Oscar nod for his role.
| Original Score: B+ | Dec 15, 2010
Expertly conceived and executed.

These days it is almost unheard of for a movie to keep you guessing until the last frame, but this one does, partly because Marquand plays it so beautifully straight.

An exciting "whodunit" that fits in with the sensational crimes reported in the tabloids.
