Different from the book, but good enough on its own to be worth watching...,
By M. B. Alcat "Curiosity killed the cat, but sa... (Los Angeles, California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Angels Fall (DVD)
"Angel's Fall", based on a book written by Nora Roberts, is an engaging movie that is likely to entertain you, and that has enough ingredients of a good thriller to keep you at the edge of your seat.
The main character is Reece (Heather Locklear), a young woman that survived a massacre in her Boston restaurant and has been running from what happened, never settling too long anywhere. Despite that, she decides to settle at least for a little while in a small but very beautiful Wyoming town, Angel's Falls. Reece gets a job at a diner, manages to make some new friend and even meets Brody (Johnathon Schaech), a handsome writer she is somewhat attracted to, even though he irritates her. Unfortunately, Reece's luck doesn't hold, and she ends up witnessing from afar what seems to be a murder. But did Reece really saw a crime, or is she so traumatized by what happened to her in Boston that she is imagining things? If you are interested in knowing what happened and how things develop between Reece and Brody, simply watch this movie. Truth to be told, it is different from the book on which it is based, but nonetheless good enough on its own to be worth watching. That is the reason why I give this movie 3.5 stars out of 5.

Male Lead Almost Worth Watching it For,
By
This review is from: Angels Fall (DVD)
I have not read the book, but for a TV movie I thought this started out pretty well. The mountainous Western setting is beautiful and the story line kept my interest. Locklear's peculiar facial cosmetic semi-disfigurement is distracting, but the leading man had no such problems, was pretty good, engaging, and so very easy on the eyes. Sadly, the last half degenerated into a laughable made for TV movie. The best was when she was running through a birch tree forest, hysterical with fear, out in the middle of nowheresville on the side of a mountain and was miraculously found by both the boyfriend AND the sherrif simultaneously. WTH? Was she running with a tracking device? The very last scene was kind of like the director yelled "That's a wrap!" before anyone was ready or prepared. Very odd.

Entertaining fare with Heather Locklear,
By
This review is from: Angels Fall (DVD)
I thought the movie was a fine effort - Heather Locklear and Johnathon Schaech do well in their roles, and the plot follows the Nora Roberts formula for the most part, even if not exactly in all the details of the book (what movie does?). Yes, Locklear is a bit older than her lead (in reality we're only talking 8 years). In today's world that's hardly the point, but a few of the reviewers seem to be preoccupied with that rather than the merits of the movie & want to count wrinkles (geez, go play in your room if you've nothing else to do). Locklear, like a number of other mid-aged actresses (Jennifer Aniston, Michelle Pfeiffer, Sharon Stone, Halley Berry anyone?) looks good. It's refreshing that not all actresses have to be 20-somethings for these roles, and frankly, it's about time. We aren't talking Oscar material here, but these kind of movies never are - they're supposed to be lighter fare, like a beach novel, with a bit of suspense, a twist of mystery & romance thrown in, & plausible ending. That's precisely what you've got here. It's entertaining and enjoyable.
