Honestly, "Last Call" may really be the best drama & comedy movie released in Bulgaria in recent years. An interesting introductory puzzle of characters is quickly turned into a dynamic mix of emotions, funny confrontations and dramatic reunions. The pacing of the movie is quite good and the outcome of the plot doesn't seem to be obvious at all. This movie proves that the main thing Bulgarian cinema and theatre talents need for a masterpiece is a creative and cohesive story: this one delivers exceptionally.

Moreover, it's vital to say that the cast is really strong. The Oscar nominated Maria Bakalova here makes her breakthrough performance and has amazing chemistry with legend Vasil Banov. As the two main leads of the movie they do really well to introduce the audience to the main conflict points that need to be resolved. But from my point of view, the main star of "Last Call" must be Gerasim Georgiev - Gero who delivers stellar performance as the drunk unsuccessful opera singer Blagovest. His amazing comedic timing is really well mixed with some heartfelt and sad deliveries which totally match the concept of the movie.

Overall, I highly recommend this successful Bulgarian project that combines well established actors at the peak of their careers, legendary veterans and new talents. You won't regret seeing it!
