With a cast
member from both Barbie and Oppenheimer and a soundtrack that prominently
includes Taylor Swift, The Fall Guy looked to be a film formulated to be
a success by the film industry. And its failure shows that there are some
things that can’t be controlled, including what audiences will be interested in,
and efforts to repeat the fluke that was Barbenheimer are likely to fail
because of this. The fact that last summer had a bleak biopic as one of the
biggest hits should prove that nobody knows anything, but regardless of box
office success, The Fall Guy is still a fun time at the movies. Efforts
to bleed a bit more from the stone also resulted in an extended cut of the film
(released for purchase online soon enough after the theatrical release to
indicate studio’s lack of faith in the theatrical success), which is included as
an extra on the 4K release.
