StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

shakercoola Falling in Love is well crafted, well acted, with charisma and chemisty about its two leads. It might be said by critics as trite romantic drama but the two main characters are quite happy and without much conflict in their marriages and this makes a union centre on love rather than betrayal. There are no bad spouses here and no high moral lessons. Awkward, clichéd conversation tends to come about between two middle class strangers who are a man and a woman. Most viewers will give broad harbour to banality if it avoids melodrama, which this does. Americans feel a much larger sense of guilt when it comes to cheating on their partners. 84 percent of Americans then viewed infidelity as morally wrong, while a mere 47 percent of French people surveyed look down on it, according to research in the early 1990s. Falling in Love is not a film reflecting anything, despite the growing trend then of infidelity research. Most experts think it is unlikely that infidelity was more popular in the 1980s than it was in the 1950's and 1960's - it was just that people were thinking more about doing it in the mid 1980s and it was worth tapping into that idea.

rydellsan I loved this movie the first time I saw it. This story proves that fate is the hunter and some things are not written into the script of life until the last minute. Meryl and Robert are perfect in their roles as are Jane, David, Harvey and Diane. The scenes on the streets of New York were pleasant and true. I enjoyed the understated element of suspense also. I always marvel at Meryl's facial expressions, they speak for her. It's a pleasure to see Robert play an ordinary blue-collar worker, he did it well. The music of "Mountain Dance" fit the movie perfectly. Well written, excellently acted, always a favorite. I have recommended this movie to many friends.

disdressed12 and i mean that in a good way.for one thing,the story isn't contrived like so many others of the genre.also it's not overly sentimental or sappy.you really believe these two people could fall in love.also the way they fell in love was realistic.Robert De Niro and Meryl Streep really do come across as genuine,playing two lonely people who meet through fate.but there's only one small hitch:they're both married.the movie is not fast paced,so if that's what you're expecting,you'll be disappointed.instead,it's an honest,unconventional love story that takes some time for the relationship to develop between the two central characters.Dianne Wiest has a small role,and is almost unrecognizable.it's nice to see Harvey Kietel in an everyman kind of role,as well as Jane Kaczmarek(Malcolm in the Middle).but it's really Streep and DE Niro who make the movie what it is.if their portrayals were not authentic or honest,the film would not work.for me,Falling in Love is a 7/10

Jackson Booth-Millard This is a really sentimental film about how a first brief meeting, and then another few can start a bigger relationship. Starring Robert De Niro as Frank Raftis, he bumps into Meryl Streep as Molly Gilmore in a book store, and they get their wrapped books mixed up. A few months they meet each other again at the train station, and they become friends. They see each other a few more times after that, and then eventually they realise it is love, but they are both married! It is amazing how only a few meetings turns into obsession, it is obviously when bad things happen to them both, and their marriages, that you wonder if they should be together. Also starring Harvey Keitel as Ed Lasky and Edward Scissorhands' Dianne Wiest as Isabelle. Good!
