Watch The Last Heist For Free

Simply A Masterpiece

hyped garbage

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

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Dont even think watching it.. waste of time... the acting is so strange ... the story is falling apart

If The Asylum made a heist movie, this would be it. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Sometimes you wish the end would've come sooner. As is the case with this particular bank that is about to close, but has still people in it, because of the ... I mean do you really care? Also does it matter? It's kind of a shame, because acting talent wise we do get a couple of good ones here. Henry Rollins alone is a sight to be seen and he has fun with his "mysterious" role (you'll figure it out way earlier than anyone in that building believe me).But it rolls along at this pace which at times doesn't seem that bad, until the next head-shaking moment comes along. It's really a shame, there is something there, something I might have liked way back in the day, when I watched those B-movies with excitement. But it doesn't really take off. Many ingredients that don't mix well together a bad movie they make ...

After the excellent Big Ass Spider! and the tedious TV movie Lavalantula, director Mike Mendez changed the road with The Last Heist, a hybrid of criminal thriller and visceral horror which, inside the modest niche of "B-Movies", fulfills with the minimum requirements of coherence and violence in order to keep us moderately entertained without making us feel we wasted our time. However, The Last Heist suffers multiple problems which darken the experience. Some action scenes feel too ambitious for the limited resources Mendez had to work with; the locations are bland and ordinary; and there are technical fails which end up being too distracting (example: the digital flashes of the guns; I could almost see water springs falling from the cannons). Fortunately, we have a slightly original premise compensating that to some point; we have seen uncountable bank robberies out of control, but the addition of a serial killer breaks the monotony. Sure, we have to swallow the huge coincidence of both things happening the same day (the robbery and the killer's visit), but it's appropriate as a catalyst of the story. Oh, and when the killer is played by Henry Rollins, we can be sure that he will exude intensity and threat. So, in conclusion, The Last Heist is a mediocre film, but it made me have a moderately entertaining, even though not lacking of frustration, time, and I can give it a slight recommendation specially to followers of "B" cinema who can appreciate a film mainly for avoiding the capital sin of this cinematographic niche: being boring. The Last Heist wasn't so, and that was enough to validate my time.
