100A movie that you might want to see for no other reason than because it exists. There will never be another like it.

80The Fall is often an affectionate caricature itself, but one of astonishing beauty, featuring two heartfelt performances from Untaru and the tender, often mordantly funny Pace. They're perfect foils for Tarsem's gorgeous tone poem to cinema as a medium of magic and miracles, stories and lies.
-
If the human details are often problematic, the IMAX-grade bombast, ceremonial camera, and Jodorowsky-esque eclecticism still combine for a singular spectacle.

58There's no doubt that Tarsem's a visionary director. Now he needs to envision a worthwhile script for himself.
