Renny Harlin's audio gab on Cliffhanger, one shared by an independently recorded Stallone (who sounds like he's benig interveiwed rather than watching the film) is a tedious affair, in which he presumes the audience will never be able to figure out how he got Sylvester Stallone to hang onto the face of a perilously high cliff, when the matte lines are clearly visible in a little rectangle around the actor. That Harlin assumes this ingernious slight-of-hand will leave us puzzled long after the movie's over is one of the funnier moments in commentary history. I believe the track was ported over from the old Pioneer LD and is in no way aided by Harlin's monotonous baritone.

This track is dominated by Renny Harlin. Stallone is in perhaps 20 percent of it.
They were recorded seperately. (which is a shame)
For me though this is still a great chat track. I did learn a lot about the effects, and casting and the problems and issues that crop up when filming in a very very very cold area.

I have listened to Renny Harlin tracks before and they are relaxed and informative. (Deep Blue Sea was a good one)
