I'm willing to give most films a chance. I've sat through some real duds from beginning to end with no complaints just so I can talk about them with a bit of authority in these reviews. I see it as the only fair way to really judge a film. This time I just couldn't do it. I tried my best but I just couldn't manage it.
It was the acting, it was appalling. The badly written dialogue was delivered with all the liveliness of a dead fish. I'm sure they're all very lovely people and I wish them all the very best for their futures but, for God's sake, please don't become actors. Work in film, if you must, but stay behind the cameras.
Not worth your time.

Dark Falls Flat
Needed someone to review the shooting script
The film isn't very good. The script needing a good tightening and 15 or 20 minutes cutting to improve the pace. Most of the acting was amateurish apart from Ethan Chapples who did a decent job with a tough script overall. I understand this was filmed over 5 days so you can imagine the pressure the cast and crew were under to get everything covered. Yes it's low budget but the locations are nice and the ideas are there. Most of the problem revolves around the lack of fun and spontaneity you get from rehearsals and improvisation. Too much focus on mobile phone conversations leaving actors alone with no one to interact with. A good script doctor could have tightened things up and the film could have been better.
Terrible!
Dark Falls sounds like somewhere in America but this is a British Film set in Britain where it will probably stay and be forgotten and never mourned! I tried it for thirty minutes but realised it was absolute rubbish and not worth wasting any more time on. None of the participants (I can't call them actors) were any good. I think they had had their vitality drained out of them just before filming began and were in a state of apathy and lethargy.
I couldn't watch any more and didn't really care what happened to anyone.
This film was described as being similar to The X Files which I loved to watch. Don't be fooled by this statement!
