Fallen Ratings & Reviews
- CoougeAugust 24, 2025It’s too slow.
- waldolcMay 2, 2025A fascinating story. Well acted and executed.
- ርልዪረMarch 19, 2025This stylish and extremely well crafted film is one of the most underated movies ever.It has it all, with subtle and realistic performances from an excellent blend of actors including Denzel Washington, a thoughtful John Goodman and the ever unfathomable Donald Sutherland. It also has a real sense of suspense and tension, and a very nice and very cleverly angled take on the well trod path of the supernatural. Washington is sublime as Detective John Hobbes, paired with a superb Goodman(don't think Roseanne because he's just in a different world here),who thinks he's seen the last of a serial killer when he witnesses his execution, but who realizes slowly that somehow the spirit of the deceased lives on. As copycat murders begin, slowly drawing Hobbes into an epic but essentially private battle of Evil and Good, it dawns on him that he isn't fighting any ordinary being, but rather an almost immortal devil whose world weary attention Hobbes has unfortunately pricked! The film's pace is deliberately steady but never, never lets up as it gradually winds it way on to it's conclusion, where we have the final and best twist of this laconic classic. I can't recommend this movie highly enough, it is such a jewel amongst all the crud that's followed since Seven. In fact it stands on it's own without comparison to any other film, set amongst the broody backdrop of an industrial Northern Usa city, as one of the best most beautifully wrought movies of our time. Get it and enjoy it again and again.These rare well made and engrossing performances are the stuff Oscars should be made of, not overbites and false noses! Sail on Fallen - Time is most definitely on your side!
- Stephen ScottFebruary 15, 2025Tiiiiime... is on your side. Although not a masterpiece, it's ending is surely up there as one of the best twists and most satisfying endings to a thriller movie... ever. You will not be disappointed with this often overlooked gem.
- Me MeApril 4, 2025Denzel at his finest in A SUPERNATURAL crime thriller. John Goodman, j.Gandolphini, and Mike Reno make a fast moving suspenseful ride.
- Paul SchwartzMarch 28, 2025Awesome movie
