5.0 out of 5 stars Good Direction, Excellent Acting, 2 May 2003
By L. Hennessy "slowly losing weight" (Twickenham) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a film for those of you out there who like to sit down and watch films about alternate realities; the one that Don MacKellar (sp.?) takes his audience to in this film is a place where the end of the planet is just 12 hours away.

We follow different characters as they live their final few hours, and how they attempt to spend their time (one is played by David Cronenberg, who acts really brilliantly). As the final hour draws near society starts to unravel, and people's behaviour becomes panic-ridden; we see how the cast of characters learn to live as if every hour is their last.

Quality characterisations from little-known actors really allow MacKellar's script to shine, and his direction affords the acting a space not normally given in western cinema.

There's a love story, plenty of dark humour AND a great soundtrack... it's great. One of my all-time favourites, and the ending is just pure cinema magic ;)

5.0 out of 5 stars What would you do on your last night?, 7 Feb 2003
Last night is a bittersweet film about the imminent destruction of the earth and how a small group of people decide to spend their last six hours on the planet. With only a small budget to suggest the end of the world the film concentrates less on any Hollywood style big budget destruction and focuses instead on the small details of several characters lives. So what we have is a beautifully observed, witty and poignant film that has more humanity and plausibility in it than most films could muster with millions more in the budget. I highly recommend this film to anyone who wants to see a film about the apocalypse that is both intelligent and at the same time entertaining and moving as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Achingly poignant, 9 Mar 2001
By robc109@hotmail.com (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews
Acutely observed and achingly poignant film. The level of detail and constant reference points make this one of the most breathtaking depictions of humanity I've ever seen.

1.0 out of 5 stars DId I see a different film to you guys?
This was boring, unrealistic, and drab. My view wasn't coloured by the low budget, I like low budget, non Hollywood-ised films. Read more
