Beautiful and memorable

A captivatingly beautiful film, on a grand scale. The casual brutality of Tarsem's previous film The Cell is tempered this time by filtering the story through the imagination of a child. The images are sometimes uncanny, sometimes shocking but always awe-inspiring. Perhaps the story itself could have been a little more solid, especially in the final act but the impressively natural performances of the 2 main stars as well as a number of standout sequences (including an impressively fluid stop motion scene) are enough to make The Fall genuinely memorable.
Truly extra-ordinary, and highly recommended.
