Review of Legends of the Fall (1994) by Jp992751 — 26 Jan 2011
Beautifully acted and amazing direction, but the movie just seemed a bit...average (albeit on the high end of average). The stars are numerous and at the top of their game and the story is riveting, but Legends of the Fall never establishes the most important part of a movie.
..a likable character. Where Legends of the Fall fails is the simple act that there is not a single character that the viewer can look at and share sympathy with as each of them are so self righteous or self loathing.
Pitt is the only person (along with the minor role of Gordon Tootoosis) that any one can feel for, but even he makes situation so difficult that the viewer can't relate to him or anyone. Legends of the Fall is a good movie but with a likable character it could have been great.
