The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

February 12 is just another day in Sam's charmed life, until it turns out to be her last. Stuck reliving her last day over and over, Sam untangles the mystery around her death and discovers everything she's losing. Before i Fall is pretty interesting but unfortunately that's just as much as it can truly give you since it's just like 'Groundhog Day' which i did liked the concept but not the execution and the same problem happens with this movie as well. Let's just say that the acting was pretty good but the story? It tried a bit way too much at times even for a drama. (5/10)

Another film on the "Time Loop" motip. It's about a teenage girl with a perfect life: perfect family, perfect friends and school, until everything changes. She is trapped into a time loop, reviving one day over and over again, and unable to get out of it. Going to find an answer and solution for all the troubles she is in, she also discovers the secrets of people around her, secrets that changed her own life and her means of happiness forever. The time runs out, and she realizes the day she is living will be her last day, and she has to do everything in her power to save a person's life and make hers matter, before it's too late... If you want to see a teenager film that is enjoyable and not too much drama or boring, "Before I Fall" is a good choice. I dont like the ending, but it's reasonable, and it's a plot twist. (possible spoilers here). Time Loop concept is not something new, and there is thousands of films have been done with it before this one. Recently, it's "Happy Death Day" and also about teenagers and time loop thingy, so if you have already watched it, then you will feel fine about "Before I Fall". The acting is great, though. The music? Not too much. The plot is good, but they could've make it better and clearer to the audiences. Death is something you cant run away, and the girl's fate had already set in the beginning, when she died in that car crash. She just had to make her death count by saving another life, and making her own matter. Once she did it, the time loop would end. The ending did make me think, but it wasnt deep enough, not like what I expected after seeing the whole thing. I do recommend this movie, and you can watch in a lazy Sunday morning, when you have nothing else to do. 7 stars rating for "Before I Fall".

The title of the film is Before I fall. The genre is drama. It's about that we can lose our life easily. It is based on a book. The film is set in the USA. The film is set in 2017. Alyssa Lynch stars in the film. The main role plays Zoey Dutch. My favourite character is Samantha Kingston because she perfectly describes her painful death. I think teenagers would like this film.

Before I Fall is best described as a contemporary feminist take on Groundhog Day. It tells the story of high school student Samantha who seems to have a quite normal life. She lives with her friendly parents and her good-spirited little sister. She has three best friends that stick together through thick and thin but who can also be quite arrogant and mean. The four girls bully a shy and silent girl with a very strange behavior at school. Samantha has a male childhood friend who is depserately in love with her but she also has a good-looking boyfriend who is quite popular among girls. It's Cupid Day and Samantha's clumsy childhood friend throws a part at his house as he hopes to impress his crush. Samantha is though planning on finally losing her virginity to her boyfriend and is morally supported by her excited friends. Things turn sour when the bullied girl unexpectedly comes to the party and gets into a fight with Samantha's best friend. The shy outsider runs away while Samantha and her friends feel frustrated about the ruined party and decide to drive home. On their way on a dark road, their car hits something and Samantha dies just to wake up in the morning of Cupid Day again. She realizes she has to figure out why she must live the same day over and over again. Samantha tries to organize some changes and experiments in her life to break the time loop.There are several great elements about the film but also a few downsides. Let's start with the negative points. The story line is rather unoriginal and the plot development quite flat at times. The movie is at times also overtly sentimental. Since the movie is mostly about Samantha, her three best friends and the strange girl, it's a film that might appeal more to female than male audiences. Witnessing the four girls bitching throughout considerable parts of the movie was quite tiring. I must also say that the male characters are all quite one-dimensional. The only two male characters of interest are a superficial womanizer who wants to sleep with the protagonist and the clumsy childhood friend who nearly stalks the protagonist.The movie also has many positive elements. I really like the film's gloomy and mysterious atmosphere that isn't just carried by the plot but by the wild landscapes of the American Northwest, the moody light techniques and the fitting alternative pop score. The protagonist's character development is particularly interesting to follow as she becomes very wise, warm and selfless throughout her fateful journey. The acting performances are great and especially lead actress Zoey Deutch convinces as rebellious teenage girl who rediscovers her good-spirited side. The movie obviously makes you think about your everyday life and daily decisions which gives some food for thought for philosophic discussions.In the end, you should watch Before I Fall if you like philosophic teenage dramas with a supernatural touch. I guess the movie might rather strike a chord with female than male audiences as well. While I really like this type of story, I must admit that especially the film's middle part was somewhat plodding. I personally prefered the similar but more vivid Happy Death Day as well as the Life Is Strange video games for a more mysterious coming-of-age experience.
