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. Jun 12, 2013 | Full Review…

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. Jun 24, 2006 | Full Review…

The screenplay, by Joe Eszterhas, does what it can to throw up a smokescreen, but the audience will probably be well ahead of the story's final resolution. May 20, 2003 | Rating: 2.5/5

Like many entries into the genre, Jagged Edge works best when it's watched with a minimum of analysis. Jan 1, 2000 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

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. Dec 15, 2010 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

A suspenseful thriller/drama, Jagged Edge didn't blow me away but it kept me guessing until the end and it's worth watching if you enjoy murder mysteries.
Super Reviewer
A great, tense and violent thriller as a laywer defends a man accused of killing his wife.....and starts to fall for him herself.
The whole selling point of this film at the time was it's "shock" ending. Which is so unbelievably predictable, a 2 year old could guess it. A waste of time.
A glossy thriller.
