There is the odd funny moment but for the most part it's a very serious film. Don't go in expecting anything other than a pretty gritty drama though.
Those scenes are often setting things up for the future though, and also watching a character struggling with depression can't always be a fun or enjoyable ride or else you've portrayed it wrong. There are little patches of the film that can come across a little dull and boring and that's one of the flaws of the film. Any other ending would have been a cop-out. It's tough and it's heart-breaking but it is also the absolute perfect ending for a film like this because it is real. And even when a family is doing everything they can to help there can still be conflict apparent as this film proved. However I think the majority of families out there are extremely supportive like the ones in 'The Fallout'. I understand not every family out there is as great as we'd like to imagine, and it's often an easy way for a film to create conflict by using a dysfunctional family. I love films where the family dynamic is handled in a positive way. Without a strong lead a film like this could be a very unpleasant watch. She is extremely likeable and seems to have the full arsenal available in her acting talents. She's in everything seemingly and it's not hard to understand why. Jenna Ortega seems to be the "IT" girl at the moment. It's a tough watch at times but an important one also.
From there the films fall into a quite sombre look at the anxiety and depression caused by such a tragedy. It's powerful, tense and all too real unfortunately. The opening sequence of 'The Fallout' is very well done.
