    This classic movie is as good now as it was when I first watched it.
  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 October 2024
    Excellently acted by Michael Douglas, this is a man who descends into hell when he allows the world to get on top of him. You can foresee the end before it arrives, but sympathies are with him all the way
  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 September 2024
    A great film, an iconic film. Micheal Douglas is superb in the role of frustrated middle age, over skilled, under qualified man...
  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 August 2024
    This is the best Michael Douglas' movie where he is in the lead role. Its a very interesting story, which you can watch time and time again without getting bored.

  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 March 2011
    This film is now almost twenty years old, and yet, it is now more relevant than ever. It is a brilliant film combining both an exciting thriller (with small amounts of action), blistering satire and social commentary, and laugh out loud funny moments. It is an intimate drama of one man's breakdown and the cop (on his last day before retirement) who has to find and deal with him, it is also epic with Los Angeles acting as the third major character. Perfect pacing and direction from Joel Schumacher, with special mention to James Newton Howard for a score which compliments the film wonderfully. Michael Douglas and Robert Duvall both brilliant actors, do this film justice, Michael Douglas is absolutely believable as the everyman worker, and Robert Duvall compliments Douglas' more showy performance with an understated one of the put-upon policeman.

    This new blu-ray edition finally gives the film the best possible picture and sound (still only Dolby 2.0). The bright sunny shots of Los Angeles and the close-ups of the faces, all with far better detail than the original DVD as would be hoped. The sound is clear and precise (no real workout for the surround speakers), which for a film of this type is all that is necessary. Extras include a fantastic commentary from the director Joel Schumacher and the star Michael Douglas recorded separately, also included is an interview with Douglas which covers much the same ground as the commentary, and the trailer for the film which is nice for completists. Although not the most overwhelming of extras it is more than I could ever of hoped for on a film that tends to be overlooked, probably due to the subject matter.

    Falling Down is one of my all-time favourite films. Great story, acting and dialogue. I think it can now be ranked as a classic, and definitely a must-see film.

    Comprato ,usato ,dal venditore Worldofbooksit (GB) ,arrivato anche in anticipo sui tempi previsti, a poco piú di 3€ in versione Regno Unito con il titolo originale FALLING DOWN ,a mio avviso piú appropriato di quello italiano, é perfettamente funzionante e sopratutto contiene una traccia audio in italiano.
    Il film é un capolavoro ovviamente.
    Consiglio a tutti.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Un thème digne de Louis-Ferdinand Céline, savamment développé et mis en scène. Top !
    Reviewed in France on 12 November 2019
    La Patrie n'est-elle qu'un concept ? Ou bien est-elle réellement incarnée par les hommes qui la constituent ?

    Ce film n'a, a priori, rien à voir avec l'écrivain Français Céline, le réalisateur n'y fait même pas référence, et pourtant je fais ce rapprochement, car au fond, Joël Schumacher développe un thème existentiel et conflictuel très proche de celui abordé par Céline dans son célèbre roman "Voyage au bout de la nuit". Céline raconte ses rencontres avec les Français dont aucun (sauf un), n'incarne la France à laquelle il a cru, la France qu'on lui avait "vendue". De même dans ce film, un américain modèle va de déconvenue en déconvenue.

    Le récit développe donc le conflit existentiel d'un homme dont les compatriotes incarnent l'exact opposé de la Patrie qu'on lui a appris à aimer et à servir. C'est très bien pensé, très bien joué, et ça vous prend les tripes. De mon point de vue un très bon film, pas du tout pseudo, mais vraiment intellectuel, et qui aide à réfléchir.
