GazerRise Fantastic!
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
pjfuccillo GIRL ON THE EDGE is a truly heartfelt film. The story is engaging and the direction exemplifies true compassion for the characters. A balanced mix of raw, intense, emotional scenes contrasted with loving, beautiful moments and visuals. A strong cast that includes veterans such as Peter Coyote and Elizabeth Peña help carry the film while allowing Taylor Spreitler to shine.
cellopatch I found this film not only touching but educational.  Sharing a true story about bullying and abuse is very topical,  these film makers successfully take your on a journey that includes both the family and the young teens journey through treatment.  It was truly inspiring to see how equine therapy helped the victim recover with self esteem and  self confidence and begin anew.  I think every family should sit with their teens and share this film as it's a gold ticket on what lessons are available to be shared.
roseymay1-13-177296 I don't know why other reviews on this movie were negative. I liked it, it was touching. It's about a teenage girl overcoming emotional trauma and about how a family can drift apart and then be healed. When kids act out, there's almost always a reason. Sometimes terrible things can happen to you but it's never too late to calm down, (put away your phone) and find your inner calm and peace.
beelliss88 OK look, we are all different. I like this, you like that, that sucked, this sucked, blah, blah, blah!! As the movie started you get the sense that you have seen this formula a hundred times! And yes you have, however, these formula films sometimes work! I would consider this a heart felt film and combined with "chick flicks" I would say about 3 percent of them take up my time! But for me it worked. Rarely does a soundtrack alter my opinion of a movie, because I am a metal head, but this one made it for me! And being biased, because I am a horse fan, this also helped, however, none the less though I enjoyed it! The most surprising thing was that the main character was based on a real person. Wait till the end credits!! The horses were trained by using the Liberty horsemanship technique!
