Recommendations

The Dissolve
Last Love hardly presents itself as a challenging picture, tugging as it does at the heartstrings with gentle persistence, but at its best moments, it is a sweetly considered one. - 60
New York Daily News
Not much happens in Sandra Nettelbeck’s intimate family drama, but its well-drawn connections between lonely souls make an impact nonetheless. - 58
The A.V. Club
Unfortunately, Nettelbeck also strives to make Last Love a genuinely complex drama rooted in recognizable human behavior, and fails utterly in that effort. - 50
The Hollywood Reporter
The main problem of Mr. Morgan’s Last Love is a structural one, as it is really two films in one. - 50
Observer
It’s a real pleasure to share some quality time with Mr. Caine as an old man wise enough to know there’s rarely any such thing as a second time around but brave enough to take a chance anyway. But the writing and direction by Sandra Nettelbeck barely support his forceful presence. - 40
Variety
Last Love sticks to a flaccid middle ground lacking any real drama or pathos. - 40
Time Out
Though there are some small, beautiful moments in Nettelbeck’s drama, Last Love as a whole feels like it’s been dosed with Xanax. - 40
Los Angeles Times
This somber work about the worthiness of living has little life in it.
