Sean of The Daily Rotation wrote, "Deadfall is the latest release from Magnolia Pictures, the mother branch of the leading distributor of independent films that would never get a proper release without a company like them existing. While some of their releases are arthouse fare that caters to smaller audiences, some of their films, like Compliance are powerful thrillers that only have a small audience, often because the themes are challenging and very unfriendly to mainstream Hollywood audiences. Luckily, Deadfall falls in with Compliance by being an intelligent thriller that just wouldn’t do well in a major theatrical release, but at the same time, it’s something that shouldn’t fall by the wayside."
Box Office Buz: Tense action thriller Deadfall, starring Eric Bana, Olivia Wilde and Charlie Hunnam is in cinemas now. Charting two siblings on the run to the Canadian border, Deadfall sees the pair fight to survive at all costs against deadly weather conditions, treacherous terrain and a police force determined to bring the culprits to justice.
Stefan Ruzowitzky, Academy Award-Winning Austrian Director and screenwriter, is all set to release the action thriller, Deadfall, in the UK. The film, based on a screenplay by Zach Dean, features an all star cast headed up by Eric Bana, Olivia Wilde, Charlie Hunnam, Kris Kristofferson and Sissy Spacek.
i just watch this in netflix. its just over an hour and a half, it could have been better if it was longer. eric bana and olivia wilde were good in this film as brother and sister on the run. overall it is a good movie, but it is to simple to be that memorable.

Last week was a slow week for Blu-ray releases and that trend continues this week. On the new release front we have Denzel flying while intoxicated, Medea searching for a serial killer, and Kevin James’ career taking a MMA style beating. The catalog titles aren’t much better; we head back to Neverland for it’s 60th anniversary, there are some vintage musicals, and two double packs that are only slightly related.
I went and got my copies of Flight and Alex Cross today so I'll have to watch those since I missed seeing them too. I can't believe I've missed so many but this year has been very different.
