Plot – Spoilers:
William Foster/D-Fens walks through the decaying realities of LA with one thing on his mind – to get home in time for his daughter’s birthday. But his home isn’t his home anymore and there’s a restraining order on him.

Along the way, Foster’s encounters with the world are akin to the filthiest American garbage truck unloading its shit on one guy across one day. Or maybe he’s just a jigsaw piece that finally snapped out of the big picture.

Best movie I’ve watched in a while. Has that high level capitalism critique while being a product of hollywood. Funny how they mock our existenece, cause we’re just like him.

You can see that the man was insane in the simple sense but you could also see that he could have been reformed, for it didn’t seem that he would kill the family down right. This is like Ted Kazynski a smart man who had good ideas but executed them poorly.

Good satire in which the protagonist isn’t the hero – and you can tell someone is a deranged person if they think he is and missed the point completely.

Solid 7

I have watched this movie before, if you haven’t, it’s definitely worth it. It’s a 5/5 certified classic. Great acting, original plot and a solid ending (which is very rare). But mind you, this is a movie for above average IQ people, if you are reminiscent of this queerish generation who considers almost everything to be in the “far right” spectrum, this movie is probably not for you. In fact, this will pretty much seem alien to you.

This is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. I feel it’s still very relevant today.

fun, interesting movie about a few of the depravities of american culture. reminds me how much i wouldnt want to move to cali. I quite like how they treated the character too, very og joker. there’s no real reason to humanize him other than using him as a vessel to give the viewer a tour of shit city. and how real his actions and dialogue felt was truly convincing, feels like real ppl who go on tirades over here

“No matter, Never Mind” on the board, at the park scene… it’s cryptic…I understand it as, the Mind is not a matter, it’s outside of the matrix…and matter is just projection of the Mind…to allude to the illusory & mirror reality.

This movie is a classic. Michael Douglas is a great actor and never disappoints. Another great movie he stars in is The Game, another graet movie.

This is a good film, well worth watching. Even if it is just another Jewish Hollywood propaganda film against whites.

ಹೇ ನಿರ್ವಾಹಕ, ಅನೇಕರು ನಿಮಗೆ ಸಂತೋಷವಾಗಿರಲು!
Thanks for showing Falling Down.
This is like watching a human train wreck.
The lead character’s self-destruction is
similar to the path of the
lead character in Der Räube
(The Robber 2010).

Thanks EUM . I consider myself reasonably film savvy but at least once a week you showcase a film from the last 30 or so years I should have seen but missed .

Really good one, enjoyed it. With how shit is going down nowadays, there’s got to be more people like him who snap. Amen to that!

I never liked Michael Douglas as an actor but he is excellent in this. This is one of my favourite films. Not really fucked up but there is food for thought in this movie. This is a guy who just does not give a shit and does his own thing and the results vary from hilarious to depressing. Awesome addition to this site. Thx EUM legends!
