3/5

Director Jaclyn Bethany oscillates between the poetic and the mundane, denting viewers the luxury of romanticising either the curious disappearance or Lark’s own situation.

3/10

This curious, confused blend of disparate ideas doesn’t coalesce quickly enough, even for a picture with a notably brief runtime.

3.0/4.0

The Falling World feels like a film that Whit Stillman would make if Stillman would ever immerse himself in the world of mystery/thrillers.

2/5

At a mere seventy minutes, one might expect The Falling World to land more quickly, but instead it smacks of a shorter project filled out to meet feature length. The result is a film that for the most part spins the wheels.
