Watch The Last Request For Free

So much average

Lack of good storyline.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Danny A. is no comic master and I should have learned that from "Hudson Hawk." No, in a flick like this he's more into yukking it up on his own end, and not the audience. Laughing all the way to the bank would be my guess.I wasn't kidding, 15 minutes was all I could invest in this crap, and the only other movie I had left to watch was a foreign film that looked riskier. It wasn't, thus, a low-budget horror offering from New Zealand beats Danny A. and company. It wasn't even close. Danny! Stick with mob movies with lots of blood. There's still time. Avoid comedy, Dan.

This movie was different from the very first scene. Without giving away the gag, the phone TR Knight uses was hysterically blasphemous (I think that's how it's spelled). The Honey moon scene has me on the floor, it was viciously romantic which made it even funnier. It took me a while to realize that the old retired actor in the home, run by Mario Cantone, was Tony Lo Bianco. It was a great makeup job.It seemed like the movie went from one funny scene to the next, each one getting crazier, none more crazy than the Jiffy Pop birth scene. It had an element of Mel Brook's Young Frankenstien and Woody Allen's inventiveness. Although the story was simple and I knew where it would probably end up I had no idea who it would get there. The casting was great. It was fun seeing Joe Piscopo play such a funny outrageous character without going over the top. There's so many funny scenes I find myself wanting to tell them but I don't want to ruin the fun for you. This is probably one of the more unusual romantic comedies I've seen. It has a sweet story that blends with almost airplane like jokes that fit. It's fun. Rent or buy it, you'll enjoy it.

I like this film because it had a heartwarming story combined with quirky characters, and lots of funny lines:) There are a lot of familiar actors in The Last Request: Danny Aiello, Tony LoBianco, Mario Cantone, TR Knight from Greys Anatomy, Nick Scotti and many more- Barbara Feldon (Get Smart) steals the screen as the mother- she is so funny! I see this director doing even bigger films down the road- hopefully soon! He's like a modern day Woody Allen combined with movie styles like Airplane etc...very out of the box...the popcorn birth scene was visually captivating- the whole film was shot very, very impressively. The scenes with the senior citizens were the funniest for me, and i heard that the old man singing at the piano is the directors father! He was so cute:) John Debellis, the writer/director, has been known for his past work on Saturday Night Live and The Tonight Show, but I'm very impressed with his first film. It's too bad this hasn't gone into the theaters- I would've loved to have seen it on a big screen. I just found out that Johny Depp auditioned for this movie before he was known! I have a screenwriter friend who saw The Last Request with me and will be reaching out to Debellis to direct his latest screenplay. Even without all the celebrity cast, this film works. It's good to see clean comedy is back in style- in this case, in truly unique form!

From the very beginning the film had me laughing and I knew I was in for a very unusual ride. Somehow the writer director managed to blend off beat with even more off beat with a some warmth, especially towards the end of the movie.Tony Lo Bianco and Mario Cantone shared a scene in the church and they were more like a comedy team than two actors working together in a movie. The biggest name in the movie was Danny Aiello who was brilliant as the over the top dying pop. T.R. Knight was perfectly cast as the nerdy son who has to work through all of of his fears on a quest his dying dad wouldn't take no for an answer. He was also matched perfectly with Sabrina Loydd the girl he doesn't know is the one. It's a simple story but anymore and the outlandish jokes wouldn't have worked. This is charming, funny film that somehow is kind of sick at the same time. I loved it. I'm glad I rented it. I'll have to thank the friend who turned me on to this little gem.
