Fallen (2016)
Tumblr media
At the top of the list, you’ve got Twilight. Below it, there’s After. Towards the bottom there's 50 Shades of Grey. Somewhere in-between, you have Fallen. This laughable knockoff seems to have little faith in its audience and even less in itself. I can't blame the film too much for its low self-esteem. The story’s mythology doesn’t make much sense and even if it did, there’s no way you could take it seriously.
Troubled teenager Lucinda “Luce” Price (Addison Timlin) is sent by her parents to Sword and Cross, a reform school for young adults. There, she notices the handsome Daniel (Jeremy Irvine), who keeps acting strangely around her. Something is amiss about him. Luce and her best friend Penn (Lola Kirke) are determined to find out what.
In a move that's either brilliant or utterly foolish, Fallen begins by dispensing some crucial exposition. When Lucifer rebelled against God, the angels split into two factions. Those who didn’t immediately choose a side were banished to Earth. They will remain there until the one angel who chose neither faction and instead opted to be on “Team Love” changes their mind. So… yes. If vampires or BDSM were too naughty for you, how about a YA romance based around The Bible instead? At least the movie is kind enough to let you know things will get silly right away. It’s painfully obvious the first, second and third time this history is told that somewhere inside Sword and Cross there are angels ready to pick sides living among the students. I bet you can guess Daniel’s secret.
This movie does not want you to think very hard. Angels, God and the Devil are real but Luce is the reincarnated lover Daniel betrayed God for at the beginning of time, so someone’s been fudging the Sunday school lessons a bit. If you're wondering what the conflict is, let me tell you. This version of Luce is not baptized. If she dies before she and Daniel share their first kiss, she’s gone for good. This means the bad angels want her dead and the good ones… also want her dead. If she isn't baptized, she won't reincarnate. If she doesn’t come back, all the angels can finally go to their respective camps, though why the Fallen angels want to trade Earth - where we have nice things and they never age - for Hell, I don’t know. What I also don’t understand is how this is the first time Luce hasn’t been baptized. Wait. Could it be that angels both good and bad have been hiding their existence so people will not believe that Christianity is the true religion… just so one day some girl’s parent’s wouldn’t baptize their daughter? I think I’ve put more thought into this story than the author did.
Alright, alright. I understand the movie “had to happen” so I’m not going to criticize its premise further. I’ve seen a movie where a man made it seems 100% rational to chain a nymphomaniac to a radiator. I can buy this. Or I could, if the people involved displayed any enthusiasm. The male lead broods like he’s auditioning for the role of Batman, the villains are obvious and one-dimensional. The film’s attempt at a love triangle is a pale imitation of the “excitement” we saw before in the Twilight saga. The side characters feel less like real people existing in Luce’s world and more like ways to ensure she isn’t talking to herself the whole time. It all leads to an incomprehensible climactic battle before we get a cliffhanger that promises us more to come. It’d be a miracle if it did.
Anyone interested in Fallen has seen Twilight. They’ve probably read the books numerous times. This movie does little more than regurgitate what felt very old and tired in 2016 and the years haven't been kind to the tropes since. This is a movie without an audience but it does have a purpose. If you like Twilight and you want to convince your sarcastic friends that it has merit, show them Fallen. (On DVD, November 8, 2019)

Fallen (2016)
Tumblr media
What’s truly shocking is not the number of films who tried to capitalize on the success of Twilight. The surprise comes when you realize that - despite being a bad film - the original is one of the few to “get it right”. Fallen swaps out vampires for angels and the results are so disastrous it’s a wonder it was released theatrically.
Troubled teenager Lucinda “Luce” Price (Addison Timlin) is sent by her parents to “Sword and Cross”, a reform school for young adults. There, she notices that handsome Daniel (Jeremy Irvine) keeps acting strangely around her. There’s something amiss about him. Luce and her best friend Penn (Lola Kirke) become determined to find out what, though Luce secretly fears he is connected to the strange visions plaguing her.
While initially Fallen may not seem all that Twilight-y, give it time. It’s got the twist on the mythical creatures (if you can call angels that), it’s got the love triangle as Luce contemplates the ever-distant but handsome Daniel and "bad boy" Cam (Harrison Gilbertson). It even steals scenes directly from the 2008 film, like the one where Edward saves Bella from being crushed by an out-of-control car, confirming his identity as a supernatural being in the process. This puts me in the awkward position of - once again - having to defend Twilight and explain why it “works”.
Here’s the thing. Firstly, vampires are not real. Their abilities aren’t even consistent from one myth to the next. It’s fine to make up what happens to them in sunlight. Criticize the romance all you like, but it made sense, in that story, for the decades-old bloodsucker to fall for the plain girl: he can read everyone's mind but hers. You understand the appeal, or at least you see how it’d be plausible. Secondly, Twilight is relatively simple story. Jacob being a werewolf isn't introduced until New Moon and had the first picture not gotten a sequel, you would’ve never been the wiser. Finally, The film ends on a note that’s relatively conclusive. It never became overconfident. So yes, Twilight did some things right. Not convinced? Let's compare it once again to Fallen.
An immediate issue is the picture’s overcomplicated mythology. We’re told that Angels waged a war in Heaven, that some sided with Lucifer, others with God. A select few couldn’t make up their mind and were cast down to Earth (hence the term fallen angels). Over time, they picked sides… all except one, who sided with love. Until they stop thinking with their heart and pick either good or evil, all fallen angels are stuck on Earth. Got that? If not, don’t worry, the film explains it to you twice at the beginning of the picture. It should be easy to understand but then the film confuses you with some bewildering decisions. Of all the names you could’ve chosen for your protagonist, why “Luce”?! It sounds too much like Lucifer. Maybe there’s a revelation in the second, third, fourth or fifth book in the series, but that’s just another problem: this script follows the book too closely. We meet so many characters who serve no purpose or do so little they could’ve easily been trimmed out at no loss. Screen time would've been better spent on scenes that would at least attempt to make the incoming “twist” about Daniel less obvious. We only see Luce attend two classes: religious theology, and fencing. What kind of reform school has those two courses in its curriculum? These exposition dumps are so obvious you’ve got the whole movie figured out long before the ending… assuming you were able to understand that whole bit about the angels and the war in heaven earlier.
About that ending. Director Scott Hicks isn’t satisfied merely leaving us on an incredibly silly-looking action climax. They end the picture with a "to be continued" so unsatisfying you can't believe no one told the emperor they weren't wearing any clothes. This is where I guess I have to give it a bit of credit. At this point, I've invested so much time and energy making fun of this preposterous scenario I want to know how it ends. A sequel will never happen in a million years so I guess that means I’ll be reading the books…
Among the legions of Twilight knockoffs, Fallen isn’t the lowest of the low but it is kind of fascinating. It’s basically a sanitized, Christian version of a story in which vampires were themselves sanitized. It’s not good. It’s not even so bad it’s good, but if anyone involved with the production is reading, I’ll watch the sequel if you shoot it. (On DVD, October 6, 2018)
