Best Film Since 'the Fountain'

This film is incredible. Critic peoples who don't know anything have basically given it average ratings, probably the same people who will buy 'Speed Racer' and 'Jumper' on dvd. Booooooorrrrring.

Anyhow, the movie is amazing. Non-default. Too bad it's not playing more places. So I won't say much about it, except it's like phenomenal. I think that's how you spell it. This guy and little girl become friends while in the same hospital, and he begins telling her a fantastical story that starts to sort of become reality. The title 'the fall' kind of has a dual meaning--the girl is in the hospital because of a fall, and you can figure out what you think the other meaning is. From the trailer you can tell that the cinematography is AMAZING, and they filmed it in about every country i wish I could visit. I won't say anything else about it, exept that I fist pump when I think about seeing it again. Rated R: brief (audio) sexual inuendo, and some crazy/violent images. I might compare it to the fantasy-weirdness/violence of 'Pan's Labyrinth', but it's not gory gory.

See it.

Yes!!! I am so excited that you saw this movie! I was not sure if I should see it or not, since I'm not always into the scifi/fantasy, you know, but I was on the fence, and just fell off.

Have you seen Dan in Real Life? We should talk.
