‘Man on a Ledge’: The title tells you all you need to know

Published January 26, 2012 5:00am ET



The makers of “Man on a Ledge” seem to have a solid idea of their target audience. Elizabeth Banks, its comely female star, first appears on screen when she rolls out of bed in a white tank top that’s virtually see-through. A supporting player, the arrestingly named Genesis Rodriguez, wears rather more cleavage than necessary to conduct a heist. She has to change outfits in the course of that caper, and she has trouble getting into the skintight bodysuit; the camera lovingly pans over her, front and back, as she wriggles into it in her lacy underwear.
