Louis Lokuta 😂 yes a sandwich 🥪 can be very valuable if you’re hungry 😋. I only wrote my original post because at this point in the film the audience has NO IDEA what the contents of the briefcase are. Most people would have given the briefcase 💼 and minimal contents instead of fighting two thugs with knives 🔪. Obviously 🙄, not Michael Douglas’ character!
The briefcase is a metaphor for his old life. It is empty, shallow and all that resides is the bare essentials (sandwhich and an apple). He finally gives it up for his new life when he finds the bag of guns (destruction and chaos).
i wanna say there's a bill burr bit about never fighting the 35-40 yr old guy in the bar. he's dealing with a bitter wife, a shitty job, failing health, etc, and that's all gonna get taken out on YOU.
Lmfao I like the guy 80% of the time but Bill Burr is fully a shit. In America at least, most of those men are out of shape and dealing with health conditions that require going to the pharmacy 1-3 times per month. No grown dude pass his prime is fucking up real gang members or even dudes from college campus, sorry. Btw ask or read up on some of the best boxers/MMA fighters. Clear minds= much more room for error. Some dude who's running out of luck and has real issues will have a cloudy head. There's a reason why athlete's get paid so well, so their issues away from their sports can at least be compromised with $$$ like bills, college tuitions, food etc. Sounds like Bill Bur is going to get some middle age men fucked up lol. True prime for physically and mentally fit males in America/Canada are late 20s to really early 30s.

Great actor, but I could just not believe his character, no way did he look like he could pull off that scene with the Mexicans, they would have killed him.
Specially after the trauma of lockdown under COVID. People has become more short tempered. I remember shuddering when I first watched Fallling Down. This is a very complicated and complex movie, it mirrors the most complicated and complex thing in the universe: man. At the end of his rope, he suffered injustice yet he turned self righteous. There’s a very good saying in English though: two wrongs don’t make a right. Even though I can identify with his emotional pain, violence / revenge is never the answer. But yeah, this a classical and visionary movie. It will always be current. It deals with mental decay, the man is really falling down, breaking down before our eyes. And this is very real, everywhere, all the time. Sad. I would really love hearing Dr. Jordan Peterson analysis on this character.
@@ZeeboLaywicker because I'm at a point in my life where I don't care to be PC, i don't care what other's think, and the stress of life is pushing me over the edge. I won't going on a rampage. But I understand what pushed him to the limit...
One of the best edited films I've ever seen. Excellent acting all around. This film deserved more recognition than it originally received when it came out back in the early 90s.
Easily his best role. I still don’t understand why so few people know this movie. Maybe it just resonated with me. But then again i am just a middle class white guy.
This movie is actually dealing with some serious subjects,but i couldnt stop laughing when he said 'You forgot your briefcase' and the dude was running away!
I like it when he looked up at the sky and shook his head before saying that. When a white collar worker loses it, watch out! Before anyone jumps my shit, I did not say "white guy", I said "white collar".
Potcha Shamans if a kid in school is insinuating a school shooting massacre then he or she would probably get interrogated by the police and possibly have his or her home searched for any evidence of a potential school shooting.
This was such an underrated film, not played too often and that's unfortunate. It shows someone who was pushed to the point that he snapped, and once he did, or was EPIC!
...probably the reason it ends as it does ...he was an "anti-hero" ...who went "off-track" ...one step away from being the sort of guy who would go on a workplace-rampage ...or go on to become a "domestic-terrorist"
This was such an under-appreciated movie. I think the critics didn't praise it too much, because it was so un-PC. Mike Douglas steps right into his dad's shoes as another great actor.

Yeah, when the movie starts and he's sitting in the congested traffic lane he's already in prime meltdown. He doesn't snap after awhile, he's already gone.
It's hard to believe that this awesome flick was directed by Joel Schumacher. The same guy who made the infamous Batman & Robin. One a masterpiece & the other.... well, you know.
Tobias Chance The guy is pretty good at making Psychological Thrillers surprisingly, another one of his films, Phone Booth resonates with me in a similar way to Falling Down, albeit it focuses more on the terror than the dark comedy shown in Falling Down but I like it. I share your confusion on how he could fuck up Batman and Robin so badly, maybe he had his hand forced and had to make decisions on the film he didn't want to do, I wouldn't know, all I do know is that he made Falling Down and Phone Booth, two really well made movies.. :D
Not one duped vet has done anything to defend the freedoms here in the states, not one has stopped the enemies within this country which are actually taking our freedoms. They just killed innocent civilians of other counties trying to live their own lives which retaliated back. All for the rich elite's games of power and profit.
One of my favorite all-time scenes in a movie. Gangs are brave when they have numbers. Alone, not so much. Stand up to them/fight back, and they run like little girls. Art imitating life right here. A couple of years ago, a similar situation happened to me at a Little Caesars near where I live. Two punks wanted me to give them a password so I could leave the restaurant. I had no idea what they meant. The short, stocky kid stepped in front of me as I tried to leave. I immediately pushed the punk so hard he flew over a chair and busted his head on the counter. That ended his day. I then asked the other punk if he wanted some. He turned tail and ran away. Lol.
I had an engineering professor in college that dressed and looked just like this. ....hair, glasses.......everything...... when he saw the movie he started carrying a bag like that.......
@@logicalnotes5007, what evidence is there that they are not cowards? Did you not see them running? It takes a punk to mess with somebody innocent who doesn't seem threatening.
One of my favorite movies. It really does a good job at explaining how a man can act once everything is taken away from him. It explains very well the bullshit that is happening even today.
This movie is genius, it's actually ironic in some way. The main character is considered a psychopath, but in reality, he isn't that crazy, maybe it's just society itself that made him that way. In other words, there's nothing wrong with him, he's just the product of our flawed society, it just so happens that he couldn't handle it.
immigrants actually lower crime. When people flee violence the last thing they want is trouble. I do wish Trump supporters would actually do a little research. Fox news is brainwashing you.
@@ivv6721 This film predicts what all white men will go through over the next 30 yrs or so...once he's had enough of all the bullshit and once he's sick of being penalized for being white... eventually the white men are going to unite and rise up against the shit... starting with those evil traitors..'the white liberals' those stupid fuckers fuelling their own demise and not intelligent enough to realize it...yep we'll exectute them first... then we'll take power over all governments and return to a christian way of life where people can prosper as families, we will reinstate education systems that work, like the one's our fathers and grandfathers had, we'll make the world a fair place, rewards for effort and hard work, we'll make sure the lazy will never be able to live off the state benefit system..we will take control of mass media and regulate it heavily to stop the destruction of young minds and promote wholesome and realistic values. people will live in a world were privilege is earned and not simply expected...
One thing in this movie that’s often overlooked is the weapons. Each time he is confronted by the sickness of society, it upgrades his weapons. Becoming more and more violent and punishing to society, thus society gives him the upgrades of weapons. It’s a subtle symbology. He started with nothing, but the violent interactions each time, upgrade his response.
lol, no. You guys keep thinking the people who call him nuts are on the side of the gang kids. No, it's because he watched the movie to the end. ua-cam.com/video/cXPTzmUaptY/v-deo.html

@@jimskelton7531 well at least us radicals dont drink bleach like the trumpers do...lets see if their hero pays any legal costs of the insurrectionists
The briefcase was basically worthless, but in the mind of the character, that was all he had, so it mattered a great deal to him. It was worth fighting for. When people try to steal, there’s no consideration for relative worth. If there were, they might not steal as much.
If it mattered as much as you think it did, he wouldn't of given it to the the bum at the park. If I had something that I don't need or even want and someone came up to me demanding that I give it them, like in this clip, I am going to tell them to go fuck themselves. If they asked nicely however, I would say "Go ahead, take it, it's yours!". Get the picture? RECAP: Why did he not give the briefcase to the thugs? They were aggressive and violent. Why did he give the briefcase to the bum? He was only being annoying (non-violent), and he also wasn't getting the picture. Giving him the briefcase was the final "don't harass me, I ain't gonna help you, get off my back!", the bum annoyed him no more.
Well it wasnt worth something because thats all he had. not in the monetary sense. it was a matter of principle. it wasnt because thats all he had. its because its what he had. he had a lot more than a brief case.
Listen. When you walk up to a man and threaten him, and just talks calmly to you, maybe its a good sign to walk away. They're usually the crazy ones. Just saying
No, we are not crazy. We just don`t care and won`t be intimidated. Its like - if you want all I have, then you are going to have to take all I have....
The only bad thing about this scene was that he threw his bat at the thug coming up the steps. He should have gone after him and given him a wallopin'.
Clearly, they didn't learn, because criminal punks never learn. The only thing they learn is pushing and killing people around. They only stop when they're unable to do those things due to disability, incapacitation or their own death, not because they become good/better. Wiping them out is a noble deed.

Well paced and some damn good acting. Michael Douglas could have easily over acted in this film but he played it just right. Satiating and entertaining.
Mexicans are fine, like with any people there are bad ones in the bunch. Why are you even mentioning a Portuguese country like Brazil when talking about Mexicans?
Classic scene...."you couldn't let a man still 5 minutes on your piece of shit hill?....classic...Very underated film..Its not about the Chicanos....its about William and his bizarre trek thru Los Angeles on route to Venice to see his daughter at her birthday party, despite the restraining order against him frim his ex-wife....Douglas plays this as good as anyone could ever play this.

You probably got a red flag 🚩 too didn’t you
Boi
Did he have a switchblade and a rocket launcher. haha
Me smells bullshit. ....
Why don't I belive you....
"I'm going home , clear a path motherfucker I'm going home" lmfao
One of the strongest lines of the whole film and one of my personal favorites ❤ Michael Douglas
me on my last day of work
@@rscogin3874 Me on my Friday. every Friday....
I'm using this.
Hmm why do I think he means the exactly same thing as Dorothy in Wizard of Oz, "there is no place like home". Kingdom of God comes from within!
This has to be one of the most satisfying three minutes of film ever! Superb! "I'M GOIN' HOME!!!"
There are no bigger cowards than bullies.
@@alfa-psi
Now that I think about it, those bullies who are not cowards, are called Psychopaths.
@@alfa-psi FUCK YOU IDIOT
Bullies never follow the law.
@@logicalnotes5007, what evidence is there that they are not cowards? Did you not see them running? It takes a punk to mess with somebody innocent who doesn't seem threatening.
@@StarfieldRailway
Bullies are cowards.
"There are NO bigger cowards than bullies."
Another words, bullies are the BIGGEST cowards on earth.
"What do you call that?" (Graffiti?) lol his comebacks are epic.
the fact that this has been rendered to worse than vhs quality is astounding.
the fact this is the new norm is worse than vhs quality
They call is Noir these days.
@G G I remember watching this on the big screen...It was HI FI VHS. Ahh the good ole days.

One of the greatest classics of all time
Mike Douglas was brillant in this movie. His best role to me. Than throw in the great Robert Duvall and you can't go wrong. Awesome flick
Mike Douglas did an OUTSTANDING Job!
This is even his personal favorite movie of his.
Michael Douglas's favourite film in his career
Black Rain my favourite of his.
His favorite movie and then he dies at the end lol
One of the most satisfying scenes in movie making history
One of my favorite movies. It really does a good job at explaining how a man can act once everything is taken away from him. It explains very well the bullshit that is happening even today.
This movie is genius, it's actually ironic in some way. The main character is considered a psychopath, but in reality, he isn't that crazy, maybe it's just society itself that made him that way. In other words, there's nothing wrong with him, he's just the product of our flawed society, it just so happens that he couldn't handle it.
I've always seen it as the one who fights monsters has in the process become a monster himself
spot on,,,,its like dexter the series, most people can relate to him just like they can relate to this guy he is the norm not the unormal
13FOIFVET YOU'VE always seen it like that? You're quoting Nietzsche lmao
Not a psycho except he wants to kill his wife and kid. Understandable.
***** I don't think he would, he never hit them, it's just his attitude that is scary, that's why his wife left him.
Now we're all starting to feel like him
I know. But I'm going to do some thing about it. Trust me.
immigrants actually lower crime. When people flee violence the last thing they want is trouble. I do wish Trump supporters would actually do a little research. Fox news is brainwashing you.
@@ivv6721 This film predicts what all white men will go through over the next 30 yrs or so...once he's had enough of all the bullshit and once he's sick of being penalized for being white... eventually the white men are going to unite and rise up against the shit... starting with those evil traitors..'the white liberals' those stupid fuckers fuelling their own demise and not intelligent enough to realize it...yep we'll exectute them first... then we'll take power over all governments and return to a christian way of life where people can prosper as families, we will reinstate education systems that work, like the one's our fathers and grandfathers had, we'll make the world a fair place, rewards for effort and hard work, we'll make sure the lazy will never be able to live off the state benefit system..we will take control of mass media and regulate it heavily to stop the destruction of young minds and promote wholesome and realistic values. people will live in a world were privilege is earned and not simply expected...
Sometimes you get pushed enough that nothing matters anymore. At the point of having nothing left to lose a man becomes very dangerous.
Are you talkin about a Republican or a Democrat?

Maybe if you wrote it in fuckin' English, I could fuckin' understand it.
Damn i love Michael Douglas' performance in this film!!
One of his best imo
@Dotard Trump
Jealous of a successful man much whiner? 🙄🤣
@Dotard Trump He was your President
@Dotard Trump bah bah bah says the brainwashed 🐑
@Dotard Trump you just described exactly what you leftist do
One thing in this movie that’s often overlooked is the weapons. Each time he is confronted by the sickness of society, it upgrades his weapons. Becoming more and more violent and punishing to society, thus society gives him the upgrades of weapons. It’s a subtle symbology. He started with nothing, but the violent interactions each time, upgrade his response.

+Don't ask Is that why my chicken dinner is getting cold, that you're telling me that society excuses his destructive behavior?
Somebody was paying attention.
It's called survival dude, and they did a great job is this movie
..and wasn't he laid off from a weapons job?
When a man is pushed to far, he becomes more dangerous
'Too'. It's too far.
the most dangerous man is the man that is pushed too far and yet still insist's on acting Civil and calm
because when he explodes.... You're fucked
@@martinkuliza So there are 6 billion potential violent people in the world? That seems a lot!

they got a nutcase
smokeybirdman Ha
They got JUSTICE !
Sounds like your on the side of the thugs?
Bravo
lol, no. You guys keep thinking the people who call him nuts are on the side of the gang kids.
No, it's because he watched the movie to the end.

This is one of those movies that never gets old to watch
I just love how Foster just casually walks away while toying with the gang member's knife just after his life was in danger a few minutes ago.
"...how they do that?" 🤣
I'd love to see this remastered and put on Blu-ray, one of my favorite movies of all time!
Gary Anderson You just changed my life friend 😆 thanks for the heads up!
Damian Williams they need to remake this movie and use actual Mexicans this time.
"I'm going home. Clear a path!!!"
Best line EVER
Read this right when he said it. Lol
Just imagine this film made today? CNN & Don Lemon would accuse him of white-privilege, hate speech, unconscious biass and micro-aggressions.
@Don McGrath ok trumper

@@jimskelton7531 well at least us radicals dont drink bleach like the trumpers do...lets see if their hero pays any legal costs of the insurrectionists
@@ConstantChinner dini dinty do
The briefcase was basically worthless, but in the mind of the character, that was all he had, so it mattered a great deal to him. It was worth fighting for. When people try to steal, there’s no consideration for relative worth. If there were, they might not steal as much.
If it mattered as much as you think it did, he wouldn't of given it to the the bum at the park.
If I had something that I don't need or even want and someone came up to me demanding that I give it them, like in this clip, I am going to tell them to go fuck themselves. If they asked nicely however, I would say "Go ahead, take it, it's yours!".
Get the picture?
RECAP:
Why did he not give the briefcase to the thugs? They were aggressive and violent.
Why did he give the briefcase to the bum? He was only being annoying (non-violent), and he also wasn't getting the picture. Giving him the briefcase was the final "don't harass me, I ain't gonna help you, get off my back!", the bum annoyed him no more.
Well it wasnt worth something because thats all he had. not in the monetary sense. it was a matter of principle. it wasnt because thats all he had. its because its what he had. he had a lot more than a brief case.
Damn good movie this was, I need to see it again.
Tim Scott hmm if you want to see the movie again I think you should give up your briefcase!!
Tim Scott frustration of every common coporate working man
One of my all time favorite movies. I still have it on VHS. Brilliant.
Love how he upgrades his weaponry along his journey. Brilliant movie
I loved this fuckin movie when it came out over 20 years ago and still do...it’s as relevant today as it was then....brilliant
The best line of all - "Fellas I've had a rare morning"
SEE THIS IS WHY WE NEED THE WALL
Shut up.
So people like Michael Douglas can't retaliate?
I'm a Spock lover
I like how the further he goes in the film, the less fear you hear in his voice. Great film
I liked when he wiped out that Nazi shop owner
Listen. When you walk up to a man and threaten him, and just talks calmly to you, maybe its a good sign to walk away. They're usually the crazy ones. Just saying
No, we are not crazy. We just don`t care and won`t be intimidated. Its like - if you want all I have, then you are going to have to take all I have....
They don't have to be crazy. They could just be armed.
I have a Texas LTC and I'm ALWAYS packing.
...& they've usually been
driven crazy.
Yeah.....but u forgot.......human pride
The “how’d he do that?” after he picked up the knife killed me 😂
The only bad thing about this scene was that he threw his bat at the thug coming up the steps. He should have gone after him and given him a wallopin'.
Or Whammyburgered him.
If he was Charles Bronson...
i think its better that he doesn't. shows his mercy. he is not really looking for the fight.
He's just upgrading. Vid game style
Agreed. The fact that the piece of shit wouldn't run was reason enough to break his other arm and legs too.
One of my all time favorite movies ever Falling Down forever a classic
The movie is spot on what real life is about in diverse Los Angelos.
"Diverse" eh? You mean cesspool/shit-pipe LA!
The last time I was in LA I was waiting for my flight back to Texas. I couldn't wait to get out of that shithole.
Red Car Texas is the holy land.
All of California’s a shit hole.
Ain’t diversity grand?
They should've let the guy just sit enjoy his coke.. Ive had days like this.. LoL
Ikr ! lol !
I've had a LIFE like this.
Anyone else cheer during this scene? I sure did.
....or later on when he told them "you missed" 😆😆
I was bummed out at the end, it wasn’t a happy ending for me but a damn good movie.
When you've taken everything else away from a man, the only thing left is rage.
He disciplined them the way their parents should have. At least he didn't kill them, he just taught them a lesson.
Ahhh yeah, about that last sentence...
He killed them later and laughed at them.
Clearly, they didn't learn, because criminal punks never learn. The only thing they learn is pushing and killing people around. They only stop when they're unable to do those things due to disability, incapacitation or their own death, not because they become good/better. Wiping them out is a noble deed.
Randy Boring how did he “kill them”? They did a drive by and shot innocent people and crashed. Darwinism.
"It says all that???" LOL

Way ahead of its time. This us how it all started.
Never bring a knife to a bat fight.
kabar... any day
one of the most under rated movies!
Great Movie and an example of why you don't just annoy any one.You never know what type of day someone's having or how dangerous they are or can be.
IF this movie came out today there would be wide spread outrage !
Only from the left....
From millennial and gen z pussies. Lolololol
Who really cares about the outrage?? Not me.
yea, why can't we go back to when racist shit was ok?
Paul obeyed the Torah Romans 2:13/3:31 No there wouldn’t be. Speak for yourself. Most men are tired of being wage slaves. Jesus is a myth and paul didn’t write any letters.
Well paced and some damn good acting. Michael Douglas could have easily over acted in this film but he played it just right. Satiating and entertaining.
"But you couldn't leave it alone could you?"
This movie kinda sums up this foul year of our lord 2020
I wouldn't want you people in my back yard either! Lol!!!
what do you mean "you people"?
Mexicans are fine, like with any people there are bad ones in the bunch. Why are you even mentioning a Portuguese country like Brazil when talking about Mexicans?
Classic scene...."you couldn't let a man still 5 minutes on your piece of shit hill?....classic...Very underated film..Its not about the Chicanos....its about William and his bizarre trek thru Los Angeles on route to Venice to see his daughter at her birthday party, despite the restraining order against him frim his ex-wife....Douglas plays this as good as anyone could ever play this. Wonderful acting! Powerful and of course, disturbingly humorous movie. Duvals supporting role as sgt. Prendergrast is solid and pivotal to the plot.....
JayDogTitan 1464 Lol its not anyone's backyard
+Bruno Valerio are you italian?
“Clear a path, I’m going home!!”
In this context, those words should make the hair on your neck stand!
That scene is so satisfying
not satisfying enough
&Not2Yield yup
That's the one line I remember of this movie: " I'M GOING HOME!"
You don't have to work at the Post Office to "go Postal."
think now days it is referred to as "going freshman".......too soon?
Such a great movie... Stands the test of time
Glorious 2006 UA-cam quality.
