Movie Review – Fall

Hunter convinces Becky, to come with her for a climb she’s going to do for her YouTube/Instagram followers up a 2000 foot tall old TV tower. It’s one of the tallest structures in the United States. This will also hopefully help Becky overcome her grief about losing her husband in a climbing accident almost a year before. Needless to say things don’t go as planned.

This movie is definitely a survival thriller movie that builds a lot of good tension. There are some plot points that some people might find to be predictable. But with their setup, they’re isolated and only so many options to them, so what do you expect? There was times I was imagining I was up on that tower. With a few ideas I thought about how to get down, they seem to overlook those ideas. I’m no mountain climber so maybe there’s a reason they didn’t do those ideas. They did come up with few ideas that seemed like “wow that’s incredibly dangerous” but like I said above, their options were limited so they had to try something.

Overall I enjoyed the movie. If you like survival thriller movies in the vein of 47 Meters Down, Frozen, etc. you would certainly have a good time with this movie. Hope you don’t have vertigo or are afraid of heights.

Tell a friend to see it?
Yep

Would I rewatch it?
Maybe someday but not right away

Would I want to own a copy?
Nope

Must-see in theaters?
Seeing the heights helps with vertigo type feelings. So the big screen definitely helps. That being said, the story could transfer to the small screen.

Grade: B

About The Peetimes: I found 3 Peetimes. I recommend the 1st and 2nd ones.

There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Fall.

RunPee is one of my favourite apps. No more googling a film before you see it and risking spoilers, this app has everything you need to know, not just the best time to go to the toilet. Dan, the developer, also offers an amazing customer service experience. I recently switched phones, and Dan was very generous in sorting things out with me as I moved over to my current system. If you’re an avid film watcher, this is the app for you!
