The Art of Falling: 'The Fall Guy' Balances Action and Heart
The Fall Guy is a movie that has everything trending in the right direction before you even view it. Likable actors on full display. Explosions in full force, action that looks amazing. The big question, though, is how does that all come together as a final movie?
Let's jump right into that. There is a lot to unpack here. This movie has a lot of moving parts and a lot of commetary on the film industry. Some parts of it work, and some feel like a grandiose message that may not come across as the film intended.
What immediately works is the chemistry between Blunt and Gosling. Absolutely, without a doubt, they seemed to be having a blast with this film. Without this working on the level it does, this film never stood a chance. It is remarkable the way they played off another to keep the tension of the romance throughout the movie. It elevates the crazy stunts that surround the narrative.
The story of this movie is rather simple. Lead actor missing on set. Man, in love with a woman, he thinks he blew his only shot with and now he wants to make up for the past mistakes. That is a story we have seen countless times but never set against the backdrop of a Hollywood style production. The subplot itself of the missing lead actor (played by Aaron Taylor Johnson) becomes its own thriller within the larger movie. At times, they try and do too much with that, and it leads to some predictable troupes being used to propel the story into the third act.
This movie works as a means to highlight the people who are often overlooked the most on a films production. While this movie does highlight that, the over reliance on predictable fight sequences and action sequences may have hindered that message. Most of the stunts in this movie we have seen before. For a movie that tries to show how much these performers are willing to do, they probably should have pushed that envelope a little more.
The love story is what works the best. Colt wanting to prove his love for Jody was what kept the film grounded and fun. It is really comedic at times, and that works as well to keep you invested in the plot. I just expected a little less predictability in terms of the action sequences and set pieces to elevate it above the genre norm.
While not shocking at all, the best part about this movie is the cast. That is fully what was expected going in. This movie made me laugh far more than I expected to and made me believe in the love between the two characters. Overall, the movie does its job at being solidly entertaining and a fun time while soaking it all in. Definitely worth the watch.
RIP Rick Forsayeth, Stunt Coordinator on the Umbrella Academy. Thank you for all the amazing scenes you set up, including the beautiful scene of Klaus falling through the Void and landing on the bouncy castle.
Melissa said it best: congratulations to David and the whole stunt team on this nomination!!
Who would you rather fight?
A body builder who has never been in a physical altercation
a stunt/fight coordinator/choreographer who has just below average strength
