Fallen

About This Movie

Fallen (2016) is a fascinating blend of drama, fantasy, and romance, directed by Scott Hicks. It’s got this brooding atmosphere, you know? Lucinda Price, the lead, finds herself in a reform academy, which is already intriguing. She’s supposed to be a killer, but it’s more about her inner struggles and the pull between two boys, Cam and Daniel. It’s a classic love triangle, but the film dives into darker themes, especially as Luce gets closer to Daniel. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, but the performances draw you in. There are some practical effects that add to the ethereal vibe, not overdone but just enough to create a haunting backdrop. The entire piece feels like one of those novels you can’t put down.
