The Hollywood Reporter's Megan Lehmann stated "With lush cinematography from Marden Dean and the languid pace of an unfurling dream, Fell sometimes verges on Terrence Malick-style impressionism. But it is much more than a reverie. A strong narrative structure, courtesy of a beautifully spare, dialogue-light screenplay by Natasha Pincus (director of the music video for Gotye’s Somebody That I Used To Know), keeps a propulsive tension at its core"[2]
Writing in The Sydney Morning Herald Garry Maddox said "It's a film that rewards attention and patience, as shown by the warm reception at the world premiere in the festival's competition."[3] In the Age Craig Mathieson gave it a 4 star capsual review.[4]
SBS's Russell Edwards gave it 1 1/2 stars finishing "A bolder and far more interesting film could have emerged if Thomas had adhered to his Old Testament stirrings, but the director and his scriptwriter Natasha Pincus prove too timid to truly challenge audience expectations. The dramatic decision to play ‘nice’ lacks daring because it never really questions the inherent decency of all greenies. As a result, by its finale, Fell has become a limp Cape Fear for conservationists that's as guilty of pandering to its niche audience as Red Dog pandered to the mining industry."[5]
