Our take on The Fall Guy

David Leitch's action-comedy centers on Colt Seavers, a stuntman climbing back from an almost career-ending accident who's roped into tracking down a missing movie star, untangling a conspiracy and winning back the love of his life, all while doing his hazardous day job. A former stunt coordinator himself, Leitch builds the film around genuine physical spectacle and an affectionate, self-aware look at Hollywood's unsung risk-takers. The mix of big set pieces, banter and romance keeps things light and brisk. It's an easy pick for viewers who enjoy breezy studio entertainment and practical stunt work over heavy plotting. Those wanting depth or grit may find it slight, but it delivers fun.
