The Fall Guy:
Might be a failure in the box office but its definitely not a failure to me. After leaving the business one year earlier, battle-scarred stuntman Colt Seavers springs back into action when the star of a big studio movie suddenly disappears. As the mystery surrounding the missing actor deepens, Colt soon finds himself ensnared in a sinister plot that pushes him to the edge of a fall more dangerous than any stunt.
Every movie fan, and action fans specifically, know how important stuntmen are to cinema. So, just as they promised, this movie really pays tribute to the guys who do the dangerous stunts in all of the action movies we love. The story had so much potential delving into the life of stunt doubles but they decided to solve a mystery that's not really related to the main story. Also, the mystery is so predictable and can easily be figured out by anyone. However, all that asside, the movie was so much fun. There were so many new and creative action sequences, hilarious for the most part , and some pretty good performances. Now the dialogue was a bit hit and miss which affected the on screen relationship between the 2 leads (Emily Blunt and Ryan Reynolds) however you could still sense the chemistry between them.
Overall, a very entertaining action comedy that you can just shut down your brain and watch.
Score:7.5/10.
