Last Breath Reviews

6.3 - Incredible story. Not quite enough here for a feature length film maybe?

The performances are strong, the story is gripping enough, & the underwater photography & cinematography is done incredibly well. But it felt long at only 90ish minutes (not including the 20 minute delay when my screening froze).

The main issue I have is an issue with all documentary film adaptations. The resolution is clear so early, just by the nature of the story being told, that a disappointing level of tension is lost. This story never gets told if it’s not a miracle. So when the climax shifts from person to person & all their actions, dragging the “tension” out, it feels long. And to do so in service of a rushed finale that gives the true follow up & resolution a few sentences laid over landscape shots, I felt a bit cheated.

Great “dad movie,” easy enough to engage in, & it made me want to see the documentary so it more than does its job. I was just a little hopeful for something a little more.

10/10

Last Breath is a super tense and realistic. The underwater scenes are stressful in a good way, and the acting (Woody Harrelson, Simu Liu) keeps it grounded.

crazy fucking story.

how on earth can a human survive 29min without oxygen 300ft under sea level is beyond me. bro should go get a lottery ticket.

it’s well produced, definitely could have executed it a bit better imo. the plot was simple but still solid.

wish there was a bit more backstory to it tbh.

them diving in a middle of a fucking storm is also stupid. hope they learned their fucking lesson smh.

solid film, but wouldn’t rewatch.

7 / 10

This was really good and completely shocked that it’s a true story. lol must of skipped that but when reading about it.

had me on edge for sure, and a great performance from all three leads

Such an insane survival journey. Diving in the North Sea as part of your career?? Humans are incredible sometimes

Incredible story!! People who do this for a living better be payed a lot of $$

A short, emotional, and informative true story starring Simu Liu and Fin Cole, who play incredibly skilled deep-sea divers. I really wasn't expecting the chemistry between them and Woody Harrelson to be so strong. It's a familiar cast in general, and they all do a decent job. However, the script and screenplay drown in slow predictability about thirty minutes in. It definitely needed more plot, and I wouldn't have minded learning more about the actual job and company. I loved the editing and different visual formats. Overall, though, it doesn't feel any more worthwhile than the actual documentary.

7.8/10

4/5 Intenseee

Amazing story of grit and resilience. The plot didn’t have much for the typical twists and turns, but felt good to see

7/10

it was good, it felt like nothing really happened 😭 i swear when he was left there i was like “oh what else is gonna happen” then he was rescued and i thought…that’s it. it’s a good story, maybe my expectations were just really high. not simu’s best work icl, very flat

Knowing that it really happened is so scary. I can’t imagine how he felt.

Very good story and enjoyed it

Good. Not great. The true story was more compelling than the result.
