Fall (2022)



A confined-space thriller in which the confined space is a small platform at the top of a 2000-foot radio antenna in a US desert, this movie, beyond this original setting, is completely by-the-numbers, rolling out in such formulaic fashion, you suspect an AI spat out the story, but watch it for my favourite  moment when the hero, dehydrated, overexposed to the Sun and at death's door, eats a vulture and turns immediately, momentarily, into a slinky, confident Lara Croft.

★★★☆☆
