Atom User Reviews for The Last Duel
Excellent Movie! Action packed. A++
This movie actually had wealth of great substance in a time of true cinematic shallowness!
Not worth it
A thoroughly engrossing historical epic.
During the finale fight scene my heart was literally racing and I was at peak excitement.
That was such a cliffhanger
Interesting story told in a compelling way
It’s a very good movie. However, you definitely feel that runtime
Great cast, visuals & stunts. A wonderful historical feast for the eyes following the novels source.
surprisingly good movie. not what i expected.
amazing cast for sure. cinematography was solid. nothing to write home about. go see it, it was a good time.
Entertaining, and the sequencing worked very well
Not family friendly, soft porn scenes. Shocking!!
Great movie!!!
it's certainly no gladiator
Boring zZzZ
Metacritic
A tale of power and misogyny masquerading as honor, the film is engaging and occasionally funny, embracing its themes despite a narrative imbalance.
By the time Marguerite’s chapter concludes, laying bare the wrenching source of the story’s tensions, The Last Duel will have you in the palm of its calloused hand, whether you like it or not. It is as ambitious and memorable and impressively messy a storytelling experiment as major-studio films come these days.
Scott and his collaborators find the ugly human foibles underneath the armor, court finery and gowns and make this story from an age when the one percent had the power of life and death over everyone else, when women were literally “property,” topical and timely.
