Last Man Down

"Last Man Down" is a terrible movie. On the very moment the movie starts, somehow you know already. That scene that is supposed to be tragic and emotional but that lacks any sort of impact thanks to poor acting, bad writing and even the worst placement in the story. Every single effort from the different departments feels amateurish at best and incompetent at worst, making the film virtually unwatchable. And you keep on watching, hoping for improvement. But it gets even worse. Very seldom you will see such a bad story, plot, acting and filming. Sad but true.

The premise was good. The idea made sense. The acting on the other hand... if the movie actually has anyone that wasn't wooden, and could actually carry the movie, or even emote without looking like they crapped their pants it would have been watchable. Sadly, that is not the case. Even the nudity isn't worth the it.

The opening scenes I thought were pretty good, and I hoped would set up a pretty decent thriller....

Sadly they didn't, it was all downhill after that, it really doesn't work on any level. I think the writer has perhaps expressed their ideas of the Covid pandemic through this movie, and portrayed a somewhat bleak viewpoint. The story really doesn't seem to make any sense at all.

The almost sympathetic music clashes annoyingly with the gruff voice of Daniel Stisen, it really doesn't work at all.

Positives.....they are few and far between, if you're into dudes with great bodies, then you'll enjoy the many shots of Daniel Stisen's impressive physique, at times that seemed to be the only focus, it gets a little tiresome after a while. Some good action scenes I guess.

Not worth your time sadly, 4/10.

Ok, this can be worth having on the TV if you are doing something else, but don't make popcorn to watch this movie like I did, because you will simply be bummed out you ate a bunch of popcorn for nothing. Just go watch an 80's action flick, you will be more entertained.

Honestly, you have to ask yourself how and why this was made. It's awful on every front. There are no real actors, the script is just terrible. One person wrote in another review "just because you can produce and star in a movie doesn't mean you should." That describes this.

It's supposed to be some end of world type situation where he's living in the woods and a lady comes across his path. The dialog is pretty awful and with their lack of acting skills, it's very hard to get through. You will have to fast forward to get through this mess. Then some bad guys come and there's some terrible fight scenes, they had to be making this up as they went along.

The main guy, who's name is above the title on the poster, it dreadfully awful. The name above the title on the poster is done with big name actors to get people to want to see the movie. There's no one who saw this poster and said "wow, I've got to see that!"

The guy has zero acting skills. He is buffed, clearly spending way more time on his body than his acting. But if you look at his credits, it's all "shorts" (which means it's just him and his buddies making short "films" on his camera) and "uncredited" which is an extra (which literally anyone can do). He has hardlyl any real credits. So why the name above the title? I guess to impress his mom because that's the only person who'd be impressed.

Rarely do I give a one star for something but this one deserves it. Any of the "ten star" reviews you see that rave about this were from people who worked on it. Notice how many other 'reviews' they have.

AVOID.
