Deadfall

(spoilers)

I knew very little about this film before viewing it but this was probably a good thing as if I was to tell you the storyline it is probably not one that you would be rushing to see.  At times this film was slightly disturbing due to particular themes but the film was still quite interesting.

There were a few action sequences throughout and the tense atmosphere kept you on edge throughout however the best part of the film was its climax.

The continued addition of more and more characters to the situation at the end was brilliant and because there were several story lines meeting at this point it was exciting to see how things played out, the right outcome was chosen giving a satisfying ending. Eric Bana did a brilliant job of playing the menacing character of Addison, he brought this character to life well. 

I thought they could have teased out the fact that Jay, played by Charlie Hunnam still believed that he had killed his past coach, even though it was revealed that he only suffered a concussion, but maybe this would have been out of place in the final scene. Olivia Wilde also put in a great performance, portraying her character well.

BIGGEST FLAW – Not teasing out all plot points fully

BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENT – Bana’s performance
