No cutting edge, but does keep you guessing.

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.

Not a bad thriller, as far as thrillers that aren't very good, go.

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

Like many entries into the genre, Jagged Edge works best when it's watched with a minimum of analysis.
