Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

DipitySkillful an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

stuarth-931-601179 Liked the boardroom scene where Tess pitches the crown logo with the pic of braiding on the wall. Kudos to the creative folks - those images (crown, and braiding) are the same I used for my company Plectic which is about complexity! You may find a few coincidences in the series that appeal to you too:-)

carson-41189 I'd be interested in to know the backstory on why the critics have taken such a negative view of this series right off the bat. The Rotten Tomatoes consensus (dating from the very first episode) is "Falling Water attempts complexity and intrigue but churns out an unimaginative concept lacking a redeemable payoff."The fact is the concept is highly original--I have spent my life reading and viewing science-fiction and have never come across this theme before. And how can they possibly know that it is "lacking a redeemable payoff"? Is it possible that these reviewers receive a whole series plot development along with the copy of the first episode? I mean, if they know how the series develops and,for that reason, they know it is a dud, this should be acknowledged up-front somewhere.

Antonio Molina Jurado The show has three main characters, somehow stereotypical, which individual plots dissolves in a messy and pretentious development. The continuous inner references joint their paths during this pilot, both in real life and their sleep – sometimes hard to say what is what. Not memorable acting, photography or soundtrack, but with promising story development. Sci-fi is never easy and they try to explain so much in a very unconventional way during a short chapter, that is where this premiere fails in my opinion. They try to connect so many things, as the dreams are supposed to be connected – but dreams don't always make sense. And for understanding (and not to fall sleep) you will need to be very awake, with your eyes wide open. Otherwise, you may miss the potential surprises this show may have for us in the upcoming episodes.(sorry if my English is not so good)Here you can find my extended review in Spanish:http://todoseries.com/pilotos-de-otono-falling-water/

atlasmb "Dreamscape". "Inception". "Vanilla Sky". We have seen stories about dreams before. Lucid dreams. Dream travelling. The connectivity of dreamers. Now USA brings us "Falling Water", a sci-fi mystery that revolves around three characters.Tess (Lizzie Brochere) is haunted by a nightmare. In real life, she is an artist, a photographer, a discerner of trends in style and taste.Burton (David Ajala) is a compliance and regulations investigator for a high-powered Wall Street trading firm. He dreams of a woman.Taka (Will Yun Lee) is a NYPD cop. He cares for his unresponsive mother.A narrator asks "What if we're all dreaming together?" A man (Zak Orth) is conducting experiments about dream connectivity. Taka becomes involved in a confusing case of mass suicide. Interconnected clues start weaving the three stories together.The show has a serious tone. It's stylish. Atmospheric. The background music sometimes consists of eerie sounds, not exactly music. It's mesmerizing. The differences between dreams and reality are sometimes indiscernible. From the viewer's perspective, there is unpredictability--a hallmark of dreams. You want to see what happens next. Anything is possible. (I am reminded of "The Matrix").The cast feels like a collection of future superstars. The photography is beautiful. I want to know where this mystery leads.Update 11/30/16: I am raising my grade to "8". This story still has my attention, though I still don't know where it's going.
