Really surprised by this film. I could see why one would hate this but if you get into it it's pretty cool. The demon transfer thing is pretty stupid but I accepted it and they did some cool things with it. Denzel is, as always, awesome. He really raises the film and he's got a couple nice scenes with the ever reliable John Goodman. Neat stuff.

Fallen is probably one of 90's best thrillers with the always dependable Denzel Washington, Well directed by Gregory Hoblit and excellent support cast : John Goodman, Donald Sutherland, Embeth Davidtz and Elias Koteas..Fallen is a tip top gothic thriller.

Despite him being a fantastic actor, there are not many Denzel Washington films I'm interested in watching, but Fallen was one of the few and I'm happy I gave it a chance. One of the most underrated thrillers of the 90's, with top notch performances and a grade A script.

Supernatural thriller by Gregory Hoblit starring one of my favourite actors, Denzel Washington. Fallen has this slow burn going for it which I really like. Luckily the exposition from Denzel is kept to a minimum because exposition can really kill a good movie. I loved Elias Koteas' creepy performance as Edgar Reese, just fantastic to watch. Some bits were too easy to spot but overall Fallen kept me entertained from start to finish and I easily can recommend Fallen to any serious film lover.

Creepy cop thriller with an interesting premise. Could have used a stronger script though

A pretty tired cop drama with silly religious elements. Not good.

A primeira vez que vi esse filme acredito que tenha sido lá pelo anos 2000. Já faz um tempo.
A luta do ser humano contra algo que parece ser imortal parece ser muito injusta, ainda mais pelo modo que acontece. Praticamente David vs. Golias. Porém o incrédulo policial encontra um modo nada convencional para equiparar as forças e dar um jeito nisso.
Alguns buracos no filme como a suposta mulher ou namorada que ele teve que o deixou por causa do seu irmão e sobrinho. O próprio irmão que é um ponto obscuro no filme. A relação com Gretta também poderia ter sido melhor trabalhada, acredito que daria mais emoção e corpo para o filme. Não esquecendo o tenente, que…

Your average '90s thriller. Good cast but the movie isn't anything extraordinary.
