Fall (2022)

3 factual errors - chronological order

(2 votes)

Factual error: The events of the movie occur over 3 days, during which time a cellphone is used repeatedly, including for piloting a drone. There is no currently available high-end cellphone which would continue to operate this long without charging.

Factual error: While the "life hack" of charging using a North American plug into a light socket might work, the use of a wedding ring to shorten the distance between the charger prongs and the fixtures, as depicted in the movie, would definitely not work, as there are two prongs that both need connection. All the wedding ring would do is to short out the connection.

Factual error: The drone used in the film would not be capable of the range depicted. For this small drone, using a usual 2.4GHz WiFi signal, a range of less than 1km would be expected. In addition, it is impossible to pilot a drone over 1km away without using hi-end optics to see it, as it is too small to see, let alone pilot. While there were binoculars on the platform, due to the plot twist, these were not able to be used.

Continuity mistake: After the ladder falls and before the girls realise Becky has been injured, the cut on her leg is visible in several shots. Sometimes her leggings under the cut are red with blood and sometimes they're not - it goes back and forth a few times. (00:41:35 - 00:42:55)

Becky: Life is fleeting. Life is short, too short. So you gotta use every moment. You have to do something that makes you feel alive, and that shit, that would spread that message far and wide.

Trivia: For the film, a real radio tower was built, albeit significantly shorter. The film was shot on a tall mountain, to give the illusion that the tower was much taller. A blue screen was placed below it. The two main female characters did their own stunts.

Question: When the girls realize that cellphone signals are available at the base of the tower, why can't they fly the drone down with the cellphone as a load? Is the payload too heavy?

Answer: They don't have the backpack at that time?
