The Fall of Usher

I'll agree with others that the start of the story was slow, but one you make it through the first 20 minutes, you find yourself wondering how all the bits are going to tie together and what's going to happen next. It's anybodies guess and the macabre of Poe, is really evident. The music show is fantastic and the acting and direction was well done when considering this is isn't a multi million dollar blockbuster budget. It was low budget and should be compared as such. It reminds me of when movies were made for the passion of art of the story, not as an investment opportunity. Definitely worth a watch.

I watched about 20 minutes of it, slow, dull, the way the guy narrates it simply doesn't work. I dislike not finishing a movie, but I just felt that I couldn't be bothered to continue on with it.

They tried to do Old English narration in a modern world. It was boring and looked cheap. Felt like college project. Acting was ok. It wasn't terrible, but needs improvement.probably don't watch it. Cuz will be waste of time.

It is extremely rare that I will turn off a movie, no matter how bad it is. I like to at least see where it goes and I'm no quitter, but... I watched MAYBE twenty or thirty minutes of this snoozefest before I had to go to something else! The acting (if you want to call it that) is dry and emotionless. The story (what there is of it) is excruciatingly slow.

I am a huge fan of Edgar Allen Poe, but this would turn anyone off from ever reading the Master.

So apparently, you have to have 600 characters in a review. It's too bad there wasn't similar requirements on the writers, actors and directors when it came to creating this. Maybe it would have been better. Lord knows it couldn't have been worse.

This movie couldn't have possibly been any worse. They made a terrible choice casting the lead role. I would say that hair and costuming made him look terrible, but it's more likely he just showed up wearing whatever he wanted to. No care was put into this. The narration is poorly written and exponentially more grating than your common movie narration, which is a pretty weak device in the first place. I'm sure the filmmakers have never read the source material and probably don't even really like Poe's stories. They just needed an IP to attach to their weak efforts for increased visibility. The worst ever.
