The Free Fall

Let's get the overall review out of the way: this movie is lamer than a three legged horse in the Kentucky Derby. It's slow, it's dull, and it's big twist is as dumb as dirt. At least I think. It's hard to tell if it was as bad as I thought because it is nearly impossible to hear some of the dialogue. I'm sure it was a conscious decision to have a muted, echoey quality to the dialogue while background music plays at the same volume. Why? Who knows. I'm not sure it would make a difference. Good cast, bad script, daytime television level directing, and local public access sound make this one a hard pass.

What could have been a straight forward supernatural thriller has been overdone.

The plot and scenes, too incoherent to enjoy, making you lose interest by the time you get to the end.

RATED 6/10 Language: English

The acting was so pathetic and the making is so average. Looks like total miscast except the maid and sister. The first half is slow and testing your patience. The second half is decent and the climax is good. Just because of the conclusion, I rated bit higher, else it is easily avoidable one.

I liked the twist at the end...it was a clever and unique twist, however the journey to get there was a painful one. A storyline like this needs more finesse, better actors, intricate detailing etc. This film did not posses those qualities unfortunately. A shame as it had such potential.

Hard to comment without giving it away and honestly, you deserve to go into this one cold and experience it yourself.

For the most part, an urban spin on a Daphne DuMaurier style gaslighting tale. We can tell things ain't right but we don't know why or how.

The three leads play it straight - Ashmore and the stunning Ms Lando are more than watchable throughout.

Then, it careers into its final act and it has to be seen to be believed...

Critic proof - a sure fire future cult classic.
