I went to the cinema with no big expectation about how good this gonna be. Tbh, this film didn't get a good review in my country, same as the other countries's movie reviewers. This didn't get much attention for a movie goers, so here is my review about Fallen :
I have read the book, it was fine. But that's it, nothing more than the "fine" word to describe it. I think there's too much descriptive about the S&C Gothic aura, and too fast for the ending of the first book. Same thing happens to the movie. But, I think the movie is better than the book (since I don't like the plot on the book, too slow). In the movie you can see how dynamic Luce is, not too passive as she is in the book. But, too bad for the other characters that should be more involved in the storyline. They have more potential to make the story more attractive and interesting. As a filmgoers, I think they're too focus on Luce and Daniel's past without considering the other characters. I mean, Gabbe, Arriane, Molly, and Rolland didn't get much plot for develop their characters and they looked like only as a extra-role. Even though, we knew those character in the book have a lot of part.
P.S : I think the main problem is the distributors which not-so-active promoting the film, plus I just think Jeremy Irvine failed to catch an attractiveness to young girls or even Daniel's character as he is described in the book.
But, plus thing is : I love the song on the bon fire party, and still looking for the tracklist of it. It's really catchy, seriously.
