'Fall' review: Doesn’t fall far from the cliches of other survival movies


'Fall' is yet another one of those survival films about people trapped in a life-threatening situation, desperately fighting for survival.

Fall is yet another one of those survival films about people trapped in a life-threatening situation, desperately fighting for survival. Even before you sit down for this one, you wold have already guessed how the whole movie would unfold. Sadly, Fall , er, falls short and is trapped by the cliche and generic formula overused in most recent survival movies with few tweaks and new takes.

A tragic rock-climbing excursion takes the life of Becky's husband, Dan (Mason Gooding) plunging to his death. Fast forward a year, Becky (Grace Caroline Currey) is still traumatised and mourns Dan's death by drowning herself in alcohol. One day, her best friend and a famous Youtuber, Hunter (Virginia Gardner) invites her to join on an audacious climb of a 2,000 foot-high (609m) remote, abandoned radio tower in an effort to help Becky overcome the grief and confront her fears.
