What to Know

Critics Consensus

Last Night doesn't opt for easy answers, but the framework and characters overall are too slight and plain to be compelling.

Slickly written and finely acted, Last Night is at its core a character study. Go to Full Review

The movie doesn’t give us the characters we need to really emotionally invest in this type of story. Go to Full Review

Thyaagu C @Thyaagu 18h They cheat, and they see it on humanitarian grounds - who slips out of emotion and who falls to temptation! Wah, irony! Still, a nice filler with light vibes when you’re in a lazy mood. See more thiago s @Thiagostone Aug 15 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more isla s @RT89656869 09/04/2022 To me, this seemed a somewhat predictable film, in terms of the plot development. I thought it must surely be based on a play but when I looked it up online, it seems it isn't. The performances are ok but its not exactly a memorable, certainly not a stand out, film and overall I'd say its ok but no more. I wouldn't go out of your way to see this, perhaps unless your a particularly big fan of Keira Knightley perhaps. Eva Mendes is ok in it too but there's little else that especially appealed to me. Its very much a film that I felt was/is aimed at upper middle class people, which is centered on morality. It made me think somewhat of the film Closer, starring Jude Law. Its not an awful film as such but its just not particularly...good either, so I wouldn't especially recommend it as such, no. See more 01/29/2022 You will be haunted by this (in a good way) for days after viewing ... See more 02/12/2021 I love Kiera Knightley but this is one of the most uninteresting films I have ever seen. I didn't even mean to watch this I got mixed up with another film for my film class. Boring in dialogue, diversity, visuals, story, the whole thing literally was the most difficult to watch movie I have ever sat through, simply because it felt like I was dragged along to a business party where everyone hates both each other and their jobs. See more 04/11/2020 So boring. Thought it was a nice movie to watch in a friday night, but it was a choice to regret. Lame characters and predictable story. See more Read all reviews
