Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Claudio Carvalho Tina Johnson (Mandy Bannon) and Michael Johnson (Ty Jones) have a son, Caleb, but they live an unhappy marriage. They are distant to each other and Michael has a love affair with his secretary Sarah (Meagan Flynn). One night, Tina and Michael buy a derelict building that Michael expects to fix to make money. While showing the large space to Tina, they are surprised by a sadistic stranger and are tortured along the night. Who might be the stranger and why is he doing this t o the couple?"Last Breath" is another horror movie of torture in the style of the franchise "Saw". The viewer never knows the motive for the stranger to torture husband and wife. However, when it is disclosed, it is unbelievably stupid, corny and dull. In the end, after a long session of sadism, love is beautiful (lol). My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "O Último Suspiro" ("The Last Breath")

ncoleby I read all the reviews before I decided to watch this film. Most were 10/10, so I couldn't go wrong I thought...falsely. Let me explain. This film has a message to give. Some people find that this message is deep and beautiful. Of course there is nothing wrong with that, unless you try and disguise said message clumsily as a horror/ torture movie.For starters no one dies! Yes there is an awful lot of blood coloured goo and a couple of very boring torture methods that almost made me fall asleep; but all seems wrong, too nice, not sick enough. Something tells me it was done by someone who uses the horror genre as a medium to reach 'certain people' that just don't want to be reached -if you know what I mean-. Real horror fans who have sat through Saw and/or Japanese gems such as Grotesque for example will not enjoy this at all. Others who have never watched any decent torture/ slasher/ gore movies might like this film because it is 'nice' and 'friendly' compared to the real thing. Before you watch this ask yourself in which category you fit and base your decision on that. I personally can only give it a 1/10 and the one point is for the actor's trying. One of the most boring films ever.

Patrick Meagher I bought a ticket to "last Breath" hoping to be entertained by a fun indie horror movie and was pleasantly surprised when it proved to be so much more.The plot was compelling, at first reminding me of a setup out the Saw series and then surprising me with a twist and powerful ending.The practical special effects were impressive and the music really served the story.I'm always impressed by indie filmmakers who are able to overcome, almost seeming to thrive on limited resources and then end up making films that rival those with ten times the budget. Last Breath certainly fits that description.I give Last Breath a perfect "10" for breaking the cookie cutter horror movie mold by keeping me on the edge of my seat and then sending me home with a message I'm still thinking about more than a year later.

civictv I wasn't sure what to expect when I went to see this film at the urging of a friend. As spencerhawken said in his review, the film starts out very much like torture porn, derivative of Saw. This view is further bolster by the fact that like Jigsaw, the Dark Figure seems intent on teaching Michael and Tina some life lesson. But here is where the similarity between Saw and other similar films ends.Through well stage scenes your are brought into the lives of Michael and Tina in a way that you never are in "horror" films, which is to say that you readily suspend disbelief and come to think of them as real people and, as a result come to feel for them and their disintegrating marriage, unlike the nameless faceless cannon fodder in Hollywood horror films. Does anyone really care about anyone in Scream 4? I think not. But to call Last Breath a horror film does not do it justice. It is more a dramatic, suspenseful allegory than a horror film. In the end it has a message, but it doesn't beat you over the head with it. The denouement is unexpected and yet, when it arrives, is completely believable and consistent with the rest of the film without a whiff of deus ex machina.I would strongly urge anyone NOT to avoid this film just because other reviewers have labeled it a horror film. Are there suspenseful and horrific elements? Yes, but when you see the film you will realize why those horrific elements are necessary for Michael and Tina to realize just what they have lost and that, perhaps, they still have hopes for redemption.
