Riding the Edge

After a botched robbery, a rock musician becomes a fugitive, but gets caught up in a dangerous web of crime and deception. He finds himself on the run from both the law and a ruthless criminal organization. The film follows his struggle for survival and his attempts to clear his name.

Riding the Edge is a low-budget action film that garnered minimal critical attention upon its release. It is primarily known for its star, Gene Simmons of the band KISS, and its straightforward, often formulaic, crime thriller plot. Audience reception was generally lukewarm, with most finding it to be an unremarkable entry in the genre.

• A predictable crime narrative with weak character development.
• The film struggles to elevate itself beyond its B-movie origins.
• Gene Simmons' presence is a notable factor, but not enough to salvage the film.
