Fall

[ExcaliburBaby]

Oh my god my nerves are shredded. SHREDDED! I bloody hate heights / narrow ledges but couldn’t resist the concept. Ace!!!

Is this the Michael Douglas movie or am I mistaken?

No, this is a new one about two people being stuck at the top of an old (2000 foot) radio tower after climbing it.

I saw it last weekend on an IMAX screen, and whilst the acting isn't great and it's all a bit thin, the camerawork and some of the shots made me feel faint, and I'm not even that bothered by heights! I'd say it was worth a look 👍

Omg I loved it! It was really intense my feet and palms were sweating!
Loved the twists, didn't see them coming.
I was thoroughly lost in it I felt like I was on that ladder and the ledge. Would like to see a sequel.

Do you mean Falling Down? Love that movie!

@MermaidEyes yeah that's the one I meant, great movie.

@Unforgettablefire i loved it too!!! I was just sat there shaking my head going “nope”!! The thought of climbing or caving totally freaks me out - so obviously I love horror films about it haha!

I loved it too! Bloody excellent. I hate heights too and felt so dizzy and sick.

To the OP who said she kept saying 'nope' btw, that's how the film 'Nope' was titled!

@OldTinHat yes I read that about Nope! It’s so true that that’s what you say to yourself when watching horror films probably should go and watch that one really!

Ooh I want to see this

@ExcaliburBaby Nope is worth watching, I confess to seeing it twice! Definitely go and see it.

I laughed at one part, not a spoiler but one of the characters goes to get out of his van, changes his mind, pulls the door shut, locks it and says 'nope...'!

@OldTinHat i loved Get Out so do want to see it if I get chance! Might try next week if it’s still on.

I think you can watch it online now if you miss it at the cinema 😁

I watched this online yesterday with DD(16) who loves this kind of thing and is always persuading me to watch such things. I hate heights and was watching it through my fingers. Still compulsive viewing though!

where are people watching this online?

Umm, just asked DD and she won't tell me in case it gets taken down. It did buffer a few times come to think of it.

Oh I saw this film last week and loved it. It's so tense though I had to watch through my fingers and my palms were sweating!!

I'm in the middle of watching it but I feel sick so keep coming on mumsnet for distraction 🤮🤣

That film was bloody terrifying. I had to grab my Puzzler book and distract myself. I looked up how they filmed it- they reconstructed the top100m of the tower and stuck it on a hill to get the panoramic view.
Ps, don't watch The Deep House.

I'm a horror film fan, nothing scares me usually, this one gave me actual nightmares. Who the fuck goes climbing dressed like that though ? I think there was a lot that didn't make sense if you like accuracy but even so. Scary.

And why were they roped together? Climbing up if one had fallen the other one would have too.
Also there's no way she could have pulled her up single handedly!!

👎🏻

And her leg, that's probably gonna have to come off, right?

Oh dear, I thought it was awful. I was quite bored.

We've 45 mins to go. She's got very freckley very quickly 🤣
