HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Jonathan C Last Night is a masterpiece. The genre is old-fashioned; movies about the end of the world have been around for a long time. What is interesting about Last Night is that it treats the premise with some seriousness, as it follows the lives of some rather ordinary folks in Toronto as they are busy spending their last six hours on Earth. There is Sandra, a woman stocking up on supplies for her mutual suicide with her husband, when her car gets totaled by a mob and she is stranded on the wrong side of town. There is also Patrick, who is mourning the loss of his wife, who decides he would rather spend his last hours on a rooftop with Beethoven than with his family. Another man decides to spend all of his last hours enacting all of the sexual fantasies that he has been storing up over the past many years. One other family throws a last Christmas party, even though it is not Christmas.As the movie progresses the stories interweave as the characters interact. What makes this movie special is that there is nagging sensation that, no matter what character we are looking at, there appears to be some sort of disconnect between the fulfillment that the characters seek in their last days compared to what they are actually able to achieve. We come to realize that, although all of the characters understand that they are going to die, they really have no clue what this fact really means for them. Some achieve their dreams--one character give a premier piano recital that was clearly a lifelong dream, but the problem is that it is all done in the midst of a reality that is slipping away. Like the characters, we in the audience suffer from the same problem--we can't believe we are facing obliteration.Consequently, this is a great movie, because it really puts you in a place where you haven't been. The end is an emotional crusher--as the people really come to life for you, you wonder how they might be so easily be swept away. A tremendous film.

SnoopyStyle It's the last night on Earth. There are six hours left before an unknown calamity. Patrick Wheeler (Don McKellar) wants to be alone for the event but he has to go to a family dinner first. Sandra (Sandra Oh) is going home but her car gets trashed. Craig Zwiller (Callum Keith Rennie) has a series of women come over to his apartment.I think the movie needs to concentrate on McKellar and Oh. It would be more compelling to make this a buddy road movie. They could go to Wheeler family dinner, meet the various characters and go back to his apartment. I don't think Zwiller's story is that compelling. The other characters add some quirkiness but none of them are that compelling. It would be better to make these actors support the McKellar Oh story. This is an interesting different kind of apocalypses movie but I only enjoy parts of it.

dave-rodolff I really had a problem watching "Last Night" because of the lack of an explanation on how the world is ending.I mean, the whole movie is about how people would react to the end of life on earth.I have read many posts on possible scientific scenarios on how it could happen, but none of them make any sense in the context of the movie. So,once you rule out any kind of scientific explanation, the only thing left is divine intervention.(The Rapture) Especially since at the end of the movie everybody is gone (No bodies even) but the buildings and everything else are still standing. Of course, I'm sure God isn't going to give us a head's up on when the Rapture is coming (down to the exact time) So, if it's the Rapture, why isn't everybody celebrating? You're going to a better place!All I know is that I would probably react quite differently to one scenario where we all die by a comet, gamma burst, rogue planet, etc. as compared to one where we all come into the Lord's grace.

wlee08 I'm not really sure what they were trying to do here. The script is not very realistic and at times is so nonsensical that you're not sure if they are trying to do a comedy, or a tongue-in-cheek comedy. It is hard to take this movie seriously and yet they tried so hard to make it seem serious. What could be more serious than the world about to end in a few hours? Everybody knows it, and yet people are still going to work? A guy is giving out program notes at a piano concert for an unknown musician? You get the impression right away that this is a low budget feature. I was hoping a decent script would compensate. I turned this one off about 1 hour in and came back the next day to try again. No improvement. Solid pass.
