Last the Night

In fact, there are too many stupid and far-fetched plot twists to call this a quality movie.

If the actors for the role of caste teenagers were more or less chosen, then a very colorful character was chosen for the role of the teacher. I don't know how it is in the USA, but in my country such a man would not be admitted to any educational institution. Very cool dude, he also teaches history.

There is nothing here that could really capture the living. There are no feelings for schoolchildren, the main character's psychosis somehow does not stick. The authors did not even manage to explain his motives - why did he become like this?

All this together makes the film weak and barely reaches at least 3 points.

Do not - I cannot stress this enough- piss off a burned out teacher with anger issues while he's going through a divorce. I had zero expectations for this movie, an indie with almost nothing available in the way of reviews from critics and a premiere with absolutely no attention on pay per view. I waited for it to be available on Prime or Tubi, but it would have been worth a rental. Brian Austin Green plays the aforementioned teacher and gives a performance that makes you wonder why he doesn't work more. The rest of the cast is as good, there's not a subpar performance anywhere. The only flaw really is we could use a little more backstory on how the teacher got to this point, but as it is this is solid entertainment and better than a lot of thrillers that get theatrical runs these days.

This was a very disturbing and sad movie. There is such a mental health crisis in America. This movie showcases how cold people and the world can be. It touches on broken relationships, gossip and where that can lead. It's truly sad, in my opinion, how this movie went down but it also brings up an interesting thing to think about. Words hurt. Mental health is important and there should be more accessible ways to get treatment.

I didn't like how this movie played out but unfortunately, it's a sad reality in America today. It also focuses on the damage the lockdown during the "pandemic" really messed with people's heads.

Brian Austin Green lost his wife, his daughter, and all respect on campus. So, he goes crazy. Throw in some covid masks and you have a bad C thriller done on a budget.

I'm not sure why there are so many repetitive reviews (bots maybe??), but the film is decent at best. The writing could've used more edits and some serious thinking about the subject at hand given the amount of school shooting instances in recent news. However, there were some redeemable qualities about the storyline.

Regarding the actors, David Valdes did a wonderful job making his character funny, relatable, and down-to-earth. Acoryé White also had a great performance, making his character the most emotionally charged, generating a lot of empathy from the viewer's end. Julia Quang portrayed an interesting character and had some good scenes, but I don't think the writer knows a lot about teenagers or teenage romance. Makena Taylor didn't actually captivate my attention. I thought her performance lacked conviction, emotional range, and she looked dazed for half the film. Brian Austin Green had a good performance, but some elements of the story made the character a bit confusing and a sort of joker-wannabe without the cinematic thriller effect.

Lastly, although the concept is interesting, the overall writing and execution weakened the delivery. This is a film good for a one-time watch.
