Editorial Review:
A box-office hit when released in 1994, this sprawling, frequently overwrought familial melodrama may get sillier as its plot progresses, but it's the kind of lusty, character-based epic that Hollywood should attempt more often. It's also an unabashedly flattering star vehicle for Brad Pitt as Tristan--the rebellious middle son of a fiercely independent Montana rancher and military veteran (Anthony Hopkins)--who is routinely at odds with his more responsible older brother, Alfred (Aidan Quinn), and younger brother, Samuel (Henry Thomas). From the battlefields of World War I to his adventures as an oceangoing sailor, Tristan's life is full of personal torment, especially when he returns to Montana and finds himself competing with Alfred over Samuel's beautiful widow (Julia Ormond), whose passion for Tristan disrupts the already turbulent Ludlow clan. Under the wide-open canopy of Big Sky country, this operatic tale unfolds with all the bloodlust, tragedy, and scenery-chewing performances you'd expect to find in a hokey bestselling novel (in fact, it's based on the acclaimed novella by Jim Harrison), but it's a potent mix that's highly entertaining. Not surprisingly, John Toll won an Academy Award for his breathtaking outdoor cinematography. --Jeff Shannon

legends of the fall review
2008-08-18 - An epic story about a family. I don't know that it is the greatest movie ever, but every time I put it on I get sucked in and watch it through.

Legends of the Fall
2008-08-05 - What can I say, just a really GREAT MOVIE & would tell anyone to watch it. Ok for teens too.

A beautiful drama.
2008-06-24 - I saw Legends in the theater back when it came out.
I loved the cinematography; it's gorgeous just to watch the scenery.
The script is well written and paced well.
The acting is superb which is to be expected considering the cast.
Hopkins is amazing as is Quinn and Pitt.
The movie has a lot of twists and turns which keep things interesting.
My only complaint is the lack of realism in certain places.
The part during the war when the brother is killed is a good example.
Sorry, but there is no way someone could get smacked by about fifty bullets by a machine gun and still be alive, even for a few moments.
That minor complaint aside, I loved the movie.
Its fun, beautiful, and a pleasure to watch.
Highly recommended.
