Last Words

I am dying of pancreatic cancer right now so for me, this film had a special poignancy. If you care about humanity and appreciate living every moment in the present, you are likely to enjoy this film. It's also about the joy and power of film to document people's existence on this planet.

Kudos to the director for including so many delightful film clips, especially the clip from a rarely seen interview with Dennis Potter. Most of the clips are well-known such as Monty Python, Buster Keaton, etc.

It was too damn long! Ok, we ge t the weird. But dude get it shorter! It was lovely but cut it bro. Ok change the bait man. My ggodnness now i know hy it was soi bad. Blah bah who dee whjoo. Really stop. There isa no reaso. Why this is the why.

It's 2086 in a post-apocalyptic world. Kal believes that he is the last man on Earth. Two years earlier, he is roaming the world with his pregnant sister. She gets killed and then he encounters reclusive film collector Shakespeare (Nick Nolte). They find a surprising farming community led by Batlk (Charlotte Rampling) and former surgeon Zyberski (Stellan Skarsgård).

This is an artsy post-apocalyptic movie. It's long. The first half is slow. There are some interesting bits but mostly, it's not that compelling. It's not the first time in the movies that cinema is seen as the salvation of civilization. In a small aside, Nick Nolte's I Remember speech wouldn't make sense unless his character is over 100 years old. It's careless writing and indicative of the general level of writing.

Show your displeasure with the film industry by avoiding this clinker. The movie "Last Words" is a modern journey into morbidity and self-disgust. It starts going downhill around the halfway point and never recovers. I think the script writer must have suffered a mental breakdown.

A beautiful dystopic story about the decline of mankind.

The story is beautiful and sad at the same time. This film portrays the last people on earth and at the same time it is a tribute to filmmaking and film history.

With simple means and a very small but incredibly talented cast this movie shows us what it means to be human in the most basic needs such as friendship and togetherness. It also shows interesting aspects of how human beings probably would act when modern day comforts are long gone.

This movie is not "easy going" so if you are into high action films then this is probably not for you. But if you enjoy a bit more slow paced and different drama this is the movie for you!
