“Fall” (**1/2 out of four) was a half-terrifying/half-routine suspense drama about a woman (Grace Caroline Currey) recently reeling from the death of her partner in a mountain-climbing fall who agrees to team up with her best friend (Virginia Gardner) to conquer the fears of her recent tragedy by climbing a 2,000 foot radio tower but plans go askew when they find themselves stranded up there with no way down and no contact and no means of survival. Hair-raising at times and given a boost by strong performances of its 2 leads which put you up there right with them at the top of that tower but still film is never quite as gripping or connecting as it should have been. Overall worthwhile although not recommended for those with fear of heights or vertigo.
