Last Words

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.

As a matter of personal preference, I do not watch R rated movies. I chose this movie for two reasons ; one it was a featured selection at Cannes film festival and two it was PG-13. IT IS NOT PG - 13!! There is full frontal male and female nudity. Not just for a brief flash but for full scenes. There's also a female to male rape. There is also an extended close-up of the genitals of a hermaphrodite.

It's a dystopian movie that takes place in 2085 but the dates do not add up. Nick Nolte talks about seeing a rock concert in 1975-- that would make him over 115! This could've been a really interesting movie. Well it WAS an interesting movie but the fact that they threw in those completely unnecessary nude scenes ruined it for me.

Actually the actors were pretty good, but the movie is very very badly made. It is an achievement in itself to ruin a movie like this. It looks like it was done on purpose or Jonathan Nossiter wanted to prank himself and everybody present in the movie.

It's very sad actually.

The whole storyline doesn't make sense. Scenes are not connected, sometimes it seems like they mashed up the script from multiple movies into this one. Actors are over acting when they obviously shouldn't. This movie could be a good material for students as a counter example of how NOT to make a movie.

The camera angles are also alright, the costumes, the scenes, are mostly good. It seems like they had the footage and just mashed up everything randomly and this came up on the other end. What a shame!

Maybe if it would be muted it would look good and a background footage at a party.

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.

The more appropriate term is perhaps "speculative fiction", not sci-fi, with all its machines and dystopias. The poignant movie Last Words is ravishing and expansive, powerful yet delicate, explorative and rife with parables, and seen largely through the eyes of a youth who could easily be one of today's climate/economic migrants, cruelly wrenched from everything loved and familiar, and now wandering through a foreign world with eyes wide open (unlike the stultified natives around them). The lad's spoken idiom is Pulaar, which is widely spoken in Senegal and the Gambia (languages credited by IMDb include only English and Italian, but there's also German). The US-born director Nossiter speaks impeccable Italian, so he "gets" the flow and sound of foreign tongues. My fellow reviewer malenor (so far only two of us, Jan 2022) was perhaps expecting Deep Impact or something similar. If s/he had smoked a joint and laid back to absorb this heartfelt yet anguished allegory, s/he'd have had an entirely different experience and might have found personal enrichment. This poetic epic is not for the popcorn audience.
