Reception
The film received generally negative reviews. The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported that 36% of critics have given the film a positive review based on 14 reviews. Robert Abele wrote in the 'Los Angeles Times' that "the basic storys narrative and psychological simplicity ... becomes an increasing burden." Stephen Holden wrote in 'The New York Times' "'After the Fall' belongs to a type of movie that is too lazy to connect the dots and fill in the blanks between its supposedly teachable moments." However, Stephen Dalton, writing in 'The Hollywood Reporter', says that film, "has much to recommend, including gorgeous New Mexico landscapes, sumptuous digital cinematography and -- as we might expect from Klein -- virtuoso editing"
