At first it was only the stunning visuals keeping me watching what is a very fragmented story. As things progressed, however, all the little elements started drawing me in and any complaints about the structure melted away as I was whisked into a world that constantly contrasted innocence and tragedy in the most beautiful way imaginable. In some bizarre way the flaws seem integral to the film's strengths and I can't imagine this being done any other way.

Visually staggering, The Fall also manages to deliver some emotionally effective imagery as opposed to The Cell, which was also beautiful but at the same time cold and distant. Catinca Untaru is a wunderkind, I absolutely adore her! Plus the DVD documentaries show what a laid back guy Tarsem really is (always pictured him as a mad dictator), telling the crew to just "have fun and enjoy".

The screenplay is good and the imaginery is simply mesmerising. A great fairy-tale.

Mind blowing cinematography mixed with an emotional and other-wordly fairy tale makes this a movie to watch more than once. Recommended.

That Movie is so god damn brilliant. Realism and surealism melt perfectly together.What´s left in the end is one of the greatest and most pretentious fantasy adventures ever made !!

An absolutely underwhelming, slow moving film. The visuals are stunning and the set pieces are creative but the characters are totally forgettable. The little girl was cute but forget the rest... big thumbs down!

Beautiful storytelling in every single way. Touching and very depressing, it is wonderful to see Tarsem come into his own as far as film goes.

I'm a huge fan of The Cell. And thus, I was pretty disappointed with this film. It was filmed nicely, but the end result was dull. Sad, considering its potential to be amazing. It just missed the mark.

Such an amazing film. It's great to have another film that has little (if any) special effects in it and the visuals are stunning. The scripting also seemed to flow nicely and nothing seems unreal about it. Such a sweet and charming film and takes you away from the real world. This is of course helped by the fantastic musical score which perfectly fits in with the scenes and helps bring out more depth in the film. Definitely worth viewing and I highly recommend it.

One of the most visually stunning films I have ever seen. This movie was robbed at the Oscar noms this year.

The most visually imaginative film i've seen, The Fall finally comes up with some substance in it's story for a wonderful finale. Set in the imagination of a little girl (a wonderful and adorable Catinka Untaru) hearing an invalids tale in exchange for fetching drugs. There are dark undertones throughout, growing to a pitch at the end, but there are moments of humor and, oddly, deadpan, that give the movie a unique tone. Decent acting, simple story well told. big expectations for Tarsem's next.

A flawed story but extremely gorgeous visuals make up for this. Its amazing to think that many of the visuals were imagined let alone made by human hands and minds.

Not exactly the sprawling epic I was expecting, but where it lacked in story, it more than made up for with breathtaking visuals and that awesome stop animation scene. the performances were all very good with Catinca Untaru being the real scene stealer.

Visually incredible, yet it lacked an interesting or unique plot. Many images and scenes were taken from Baraka.

just wanted to End!

A wonderful story telling.

Visual poetry! Absolutely spectacular. Reality and fantasy blend in a way unprecedented. Absolutely stunning!

An endearing and visually enchanting film. Unique.

Beautifully made film,amazing sceneries and great performance. I'm not a fan of child-actors,but this girl was awesome !

Wonderful, just wonderful. Visually, it's unbelievably impressive and even the story was amazing, but I still feel it could have been better...somehow...I can't really describe it. But a very pleasant surprise nontheless, a must-see!

Sumptuous visual feast with striking imagery throughout. I was mesmerized by its look and feel - not to overlook the touching central relationship between the stuntman and the young girl which anchors the wild flights of fancy. A truly unique vision.

Stringing the narrative on a fairy tale allows for some incredibly stiking Tarsem visuals that don't ignore the "real" world's storyline, but actually try to enhance it. Would have liked to seen more of that fairy-tale amplification of the "real" world and vice-versa.

A very creative and compelling movie with a great relationship. It felt a little off at times (over-playing the guy's issues), but in the end it was rather powerful.

Storytelling at its finest. I'd love to see more of Catinca Untaru in the future, she was just perfect for this role. A movie that seemlessly combines real and imaginary to a whole new level with some of the most stunning settings to date.
