Editorial Reviews:
Anthony Mann directs this giant-size, three-hour, sweepingly pictorial entertainment (Daily Variety) that chronicles the peace-loving Caeser, Marcus Aurelius (Guinness) and his corrupt son, Commodus, (Plummer) who covets his throne. Featuring epic battles, breathtaking sets and locations, and a chariot race that easily rivals Ben Hur, Fall of the Roman Empire charts the greedy miscalculations that led to this civilization s collapse at the bloody hands of the Barbarians.

Summary: Solid historical epic on 2nd century Rome.
Comment: A very enjoyable movie with good period detail and enough history to be well above the typical sword and sandal movie.

Summary: A must have dvd when you enjoyed Gladiator
Comment: A high recommended movie because of the superior quality of actors, the greatness of outdoor scenes and some great lines. For example : in his relatively short appearance in the beginning of the movie Alec Guinness (in his role as Ceasar) speeks at sunrise the almost poëtly line:
"..Timodeus...it is said more people die at this moment when night is about to give way to day then at any other time.....seems to me night whispers...COME WITH ME TO THE WEST...SLEEP FOREVER....WHÃT HAS ANOTHER DAY TO OFFER YOU?...... " Probably this motion picture will not be brought out on blue-ray discs so...by it on dvd to keep it close for your moments of need to see a classic and impressive motion picture.

Summary: Tricky title.
Comment: The best of this DVD are the extras. I hoped, by the title, the last moments of the roman empire in the fifth century A.D., but is an interpretation of one of many causes of the collapse of the empire, the begining of fool emperors at the end of the second century A.D., with Comodous. This film has the same historical fiction than "Gladiator".

Summary: Excellent Classic Movie
Comment: I'm so glad that this great movie was FINALLY released to DVD. The movie,Gladiator (Widescreen Edition) is basically a remake of the same story. I really do like Gladiator, but I this one is still my favorite.

Summary: Once upon a time, before CGI...
Comment: ...movies were made that were monumental productions. "Fall" is a prime example. Making it today as it was made in 1964 would probably break the bank of most studios. Christopher Plummer's Commodus is alone worth the price -- and one reason why he's perhaps Canada's finest living actor.
