The Cutting Edge Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
The chemistry between the co-stars makes it work.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
There is essentially not an original moment in the entire film, and yet it's skillfully made and well-acted.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
The movie is shamelessly watchable romantic schlock for the Sassy set.
Chicago Tribune
Mark Caro
Certainly almost every aspect of the plot seems preprogrammed; the movie is like a series of compulsory exercises.
Baltimore Sun
Stephen Hunter
The Cutting Edge is an enjoyable piffle, completely divorced from any recognizable reality.
lizshannonmiller.com
Liz Shannon Miller
The dialogue sings, the direction is clean, and there are nearly countless moments that still stand out as iconic today.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Certainly, The Cutting Edge is a well-timed vehicle for those who couldn't get enough of the Winter Olympics on TV, but it pushes past simple opportunism to deliver a backstage story that works in any season.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
A rousing though late-arriving crowd-pleaser of sufficient wit, vitality and intelligence that you don't have to be a teen-ager to be thoroughly entertained by it.
Variety
Variety Staff
The Cuttingedge it isn't, but this neatly formulaic romantic comedy has a sharp enough combination of teen-oriented elements and style.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Ms. Kelly's uncompromising portrayal of a high-strung prima donna whose outrageous willfulness masks a girlish vulnerability gives the picture a big charge of energy.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
We've heard those trumpet riffs before; we watched Rocky do push-ups to them. And that's all "The Cutting Edge" is -- "Rocky" on skates.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
This movie's "Flashdance" on blades, an unending series of rock videos posing as a story.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Candice Russell
With interesting camera angles that show the speed and confusion of performance, the film makes a refreshing point about the merit of victory.
Decider
Josh Sorokach
The Cutting Edge is an endlessly rewatchable, immensely enjoyable film that not only understands but embraces the fact that rom-coms are supposed to be fun.
Rachel's Reviews (YouTube)
Rachel Wagner
It's really fun classic rom-com stuff.
Common Sense Media
Heather Boerner
Guilty-pleasure '90s romance you can skate to.
Hartford Courant
Malcolm Johnson
When Doug and Kate are off the ice, The Cutting Edge tends to come to a screeching halt. The script resembles an Astaire-Rogers musical with the song-and-dance numbers cut out.
Groucho Reviews
Peter Canavese
The only thing that could make The Cutting Edge more absurd would be if the final competition revolved around a potentially deadly, possibly illegal move called the Pamchenko Twist. Wait, it does? Never mind. [Blu-ray]
