Critical reception
DVD Talk, "Fallen Arches has the feel of a production that's been one person's labor of love for too long."
Variety, "Equal parts screwball comedy and neo-classic Greek tragedy, "Fallen Arches" is yet another riff on the mob. Helmer Ron Cosentino does a nice job balancing conflicting tones."
