Fall [Movie Review]

Fall [Movie Review] | For as long as I can remember, I have always been fearing heights. Remember the fear of my plane falling down? That's exactly the feeling that I feel whenever I was forced to ride roller coasters - the fear that I will never know when my feet will safely touch the ground again will always leave me crying on every roller coaster ride. 

So, why did I watch this movie? Beats me!

Becky and her husband, Danny are on their mountain climbing trip with her friend, Hunter when her husband falls to his death. Becky mourns the lost of her husband in the most terrible way - not catching up with anyone, keeping to herself in her apartment and drowning herself with alcohol. She even refuses to talk to her father about her misery.

51 weeks after her husband's death, Hunter shows up in front of her door and brings her on a journey. Hunter is now an adrenaline junkie influencer and she wants to bring Becky on a journey to counter her fear of climbing.

It is a 2,000 foot TV tower that Hunter aims to conquer and while doing it, she wants Becky to also conquer her fear. 

They both managed to reach the top. After a few selfies and Becky releases Dan's ashes, they both agreed that it is time to return to the ground. As Becky makes her way down, the ladder breaks off - all the way to the bottom leaving the girls stranded on a small platform at the top. To make matters worst, the bag of their supplies also fall off to the antenna dish more than 50 foot below them. 

They tries signalling to a group of guys in an RV with a pistol flare, but instead of helping them, the guys steal their car.

Now stranded with nothing to do, one story leads to another and Hunter tearfully admits to Becky that she had an affair with Danny before he married Becky. 

Hunter then climbs down to fetch the bag on the dish. She manages to grab the bag and Becky tries her hardest to work together and pull Hunter up. Hunter slip but luckily she manages to cling to the bag. Becky pulls her up and both of them tries to use the drone to look for help.

So many obstacles happen to the girls - the battery on the drone almost at its end and Becky has to climb the pole to charge it on the top of the pole, the drone was almost reaching the diner when a truck crashes onto it and then vultures start circling the girls.

Will they survive this greatest test of theirs?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 4.7/ 5.0 Oh dear! I was literally holding breathes throughout the movie - I was literally with the girls on that small platform way up there and I was crying for my life.

The sweet plot in the middle of the movie makes it even more horrifying, for me! And that's why I don't regard climbing as a hobby or a way to fill in your vacation.

Cast: 4.8/ 5.0 Marvellous everyone!

Will I Watch It Again: I probably would, but I still hate climbing a structure that so high!
