Movie Date: Fallen (PG13)
Cue the Twilight love triangle, but one featuring fallen angels instead of vampires and werewolves.
A scruffy-looking bad boy, a pasty and uptight guy, and a selfish and emotionless brunette? All check.
From the young adult novel of the same name, this follows the life of Lucinda Price (Addison Timlin) who goes to a boarding school after being accused of killing her friend.
There she meets Daniel Grigori (Jeremy Irvine), whom she thinks she has known for many years. Daniel tries to avoid her but fails because Lucinda's just too irresistible.
Enter Cameron Brie (Harrison Gilbertson) who tries to steal Lucinda from Daniel.
Filled with heavy breathing and intense staring that seem to go on for ages, Fallen could have been a really good movie but the bad script and forced acting did not leave any room for character development.
Verdict: 2/5
