Robert J. Maxwell It isn't so much that Schwarzenegger is older. After all, that happens to all of us, and in fact his wrinkles and slightly gargled voice give him a certain amount of character that was missing from his earlier efforts. The chief problem is that he shows no more acting skills here than he did twety years ago. He's not helped at all by the script, which has him and a few small-time comrades throwing up a barricade against the forces of evil -- in this case a notorious drug kingpin and his army of ugly goons -- who are about to attack Arnold and the small town of which he is sheriff, in order to escape into Mexico. Guess who wins the final battle.I always thought he was a decent governor.
merem1 A good time for Schwarzenegger fans. The action is excellent. I liked the characters. The film moves along at a good pace. The film has a satisfying finale. The car in the film, that Corvette ZR1. That car is beautiful. I like the idea of the film about a drug lord trying to escape across the border and a small town sheriff bringing his friends together to make a last stand to stop him while dealing with a gang of mercenaries.
NestorNestor 'The Last Stand' is not very sophisticated (as one can expect) or deep and moving film. It uses all the worn out action film clichés and with that Corvette run a little loan from 'Fast and Furious' franchise. Arnie is Arnie - old but top of his game. Johnny Knoxville is Johnny Knoxville - goofy sidekick. Peter Stormare is comically evil villain. 'The Last Stand' fails to add something new into action film genre. Everything we have already seen from the '80s, only this time with nice visual style by director Jee-woon Kim. I'm sure I'm not the only one who left little disappointed by this film. When 'The Last Stand' was first released I was excited to see my childhood hero Schwarzenegger blowing stuff up in big screen again, and all I felt was - meh. Last nigh I had nothing better to do and watched that film again - meh. It's not total waste of time, perfect to fill some hangover mornings or extremely boring Friday nights. Still 'The Last Stand' offers enough fun and entertainment for Schwarzenegger fans, but it will never top any of Arnie's greater works.
juneebuggy Yes this was entertaining from beginning to end and way better than I expected it to be. Less cheese, full of fast paced even thrilling action scenes, a decent story and an Arnold I remember from back in the day.The movie caters to Arnold fans and on that level it delivers (some great one-liners) but as an action movie on its own merits it defiantly has its moments too. The opening prison break out and ensuing car chase with the bad guy in his very cool, very fast (exceptional mileage) car is well done, as is the showdown in the cornfield and the shootout in the town. Decent cast here too including Forest Whitaker, Johnny Knoxville & Luis Guzman.I also appreciated how they had Schwarzenegger acting his age, he's not a invincible action hero here even after he pulls out the heavy artillery and with lines like "How are you, Sheriff?" to which he replies "Old!" it was kinda awesome.The story follows Schwarzenegger as Sheriff Ray Owens, a disgraced former LAPD narcotics officer who moved to a sleepy border town following a bungled operation. His peaceful existence is shattered when a notorious, drug kingpin escapes from an FBI prisoner convoy. With the help of his lawless mercenaries Cortez is now racing towards the US-Mexico border with a hostage in tow, straight through the Sheriff's town. 11/23/15
