Tarsem's THE FALL - Blu-ray Forum

I watched this over the weekend, and I wasn't impressed. Much like The Cell, I found the ending to be a little impact. Looks and sounds great, tho!

This is one of my new top favs

I like to be surprised when I see a movie, and The Cell answered that on all levels : story, visuals, even J. Lopez's acting. First time here I've heard about The Fall, I'll blind buy it as it seem Tarsem's gone to new heights of crazy visuals and story.

This one went below my radar when it first came out, but I won't let it slip by on BluRay unnoticed. Hopefully I'm not the only one picking this up tomorrow.

I ordered this today "Blind Buy" because the reviews have been so great.

I bought this blind and it did not disappoint. This is one of the most original films I have seen in many years. I won't give away the plot for those who have not seen it but, it is everything I expected and nothing like I expected. The BD is awesome both AQ & PQ are supreme. This is a BD that finally makes me feel like the money I spent on my HD system was well worth it. If you have seen this film then I don't need to convince you. If you haven't seen this film, buy it. It will not disappoint. Seems to have a great deal of re-watch value also. I am very happy.

Just finished watching a copy from netflix. In the end, I liked it. Not love, but liked a good amount.

I wasnt quite sure whether I liked it or not while I was watching. It's paced and put together so diffwerent than anything else we've seen, and it can come off a bit jarring. But most of those strange things, i believe, are on purpose.

A very interesting movie, at times very sad, but well done, nicely acted, and filled with heart. A visual masterpiece, a feast for the eyes. Can't say enough good things about the visuals.

I think I'm going to spend some time in stores standing next to the shelves that hold the SD version of The Fall, and if anyone stops to pick up a copy, I will knock their teeth out. It's actually offensive to this movie to NOT get it on Blu-ray.
