Recommandations

100
Village Voice
The brilliant concluding chapter in the death trilogy that inspired Gus Van Sant's artistic rebirth.
100
Christian Science Monitor
A true American tragedy, directed with skill and conviction.
100
The New York Times
One of this year's indisputably great films.
80
Los Angeles Times
What Last Days offers is a blank and narrative-free, but pitch-perfect, dreamscape on which to project your own personal ruminations on Kurt, fame, whatever, nevermind. If you have none, you're on your own.
75
Entertainment Weekly
There is a method to its madness, since the madness here is really Cobain's. Last Days mythologizes his suicide as a haunting act of fulfillment: the consummation of a life that had already ceased to be.
75
USA Today
The glacial pacing may put some people off, but it also has a hypnotic quality. And some viewers might find it fascinating to be a voyeur into someone's tortured psyche.
70
The A.V. Club
In the end, it feels like a life aestheticized, not examined.
60
Film Threat
A victory for ambitious filmmaking if not always a successful attempt at character study.
