Interesting story loosely base on the actual takeover of Cambodia by the Khmer rouge.

Historical fact: The year is 1975.

The United States is withdrawing from Viet Nam.

Chaos is happening all over S. E. Asia as the balance of power shifts.

The Movie: Taking place in the city of Phnom Pehn, the story follows a few characters.

A night club owner, a female singer, crooked local military officials, a foreign war corresponded photographer forces lives and the mad dash to escape on on coming doom.

As for the technical aspects of the movie, the lighting, camera work and such was well executed.

As for the props... someone didn't get it right.

Musician bass player using a modern guitar.

US $100 bills are modern.

Just to name a couple.

Still a good movie to watch.

I rate it an 8 of 10.

If you love Cambodia, if you love thriller, if you love fast pace movie then you have to watch this movie. The director joins Miami and Phnom Penh keeping you enthralled, not bad for a movie without the Hollywood budget. Love and death, private affairs and war, a real human comedy to enjoy dreaming to travel.

A well-crafted piece of work. It was engaging from the start and built tension effectively - differing the pace on occasion, unpredictably, to keep the viewer interested. The acting, while sometimes not at perfect pitch, was admirable - especially the leads who were confident and comfortable in their, respective, extremely demanding roles.

The fact that they weren't the boring (yawn) "commercially polished" dross we see all the time from the mega-studios added immensely to the authentic feel of the drama. Even without considering the probable production budget, this indie masterpiece is right at the top of 2015's releases - there can be no doubt about that.

I can't recommend this sumptuously shot and strongly directed historically accurate epic tale more highly. It's worth seeing for the moody, smoky, ambiance of the interior scenes alone - it's directly and unavoidably visceral - you can smell the corners and shadows slowly, methodically emerging from the darkness. Go see this intriguing and artfully realized film. Soon.

Set in Cambodia - only days before Khmer Rouge guerrilla forces overrun the capital city Phnom Penh - Before The Fall captures all the passion and craziness of a collapsing city under siege.

The story, which centers around a love triangle between Cambodian nightclub singer Liya and her two lovers, grabs you from the first scenes and never lets up as the film progresses - with plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing who will prevail in the end.

There's plenty of action and a big rock n roll soundtrack which combine to really capture the look and feel of the times.

But it's the ending which really makes this film, as plots unravel and tables are repeatedly turned again and again.

It's a great looking film in a fantastic setting, with lots of crazy characters and super cool style.
