The Last Son

Acting was on par. The script was all over the place and just weird . Could have been longer , more in depth . There's alot of wtf? And huhs? Then oh damns... Should have been a 3 hour western , especially if you're going to have chapters and characters that you need to build the story up. It was kinda like we only have money to make at 60 min movie ... I don't know the budget but if you get someone who can rewrite the script , use the same actors it could be way better . Gotta give this a 3/10 but could be 8/10.. wow . Deserves more attention. Higher budget, 3hours long and way better writers .

A 10 year old could predict the ending to this movie. Acting was really good, script was really bad. Machine Gun Kelly surprisingly does a pretty decent job as his role but even that couldn't make up for the lack luster story. Very disappointing film.

My god, reading some of these reviews for this movie makes me so sad.

I've seen bad films and I can say this western does not deserve anything under a 5.

It's an engaging film and as for a western it's dark and thrilling. Reminiscent of Never Grow Old, which was an under-appreciated film for sure.

Good acting and directing.

THE GOOD - Acting and directing and great addition to the western genre THE BAD - A bit slow and yes, redundant in some aspects.

7 out of 10 .

People that give this films such low reviews and write like immature 4th graders need to try to construct a real opinion and leave it for people who want to know more about a film before renting.

No need for these cruel remarks. Geez.

Even a half-decent cast couldn't save this drearily paced script. (I say half-decent because although Thomas Jane has been in some good movies, neither Sam Worthington nor Heather Graham ever need to get excited around Oscar nomination time).

The story itself seemed a little stupid as well. Worthington is cursed that he will be killed by one of his offspring (should have kept it in his pants) so he kills them off first before they get a chance to do him. It seems like most of them were totally unaware of who he was anyway, so if he had just left well alone, he needn't have worried. By going out of his way to find them, he actually puts himself at risk. The story was so slow and dreary that I ended up fast-forwarding through most of it. Even so, I knew what the ending was going to be. I rated it a generous 3 (and one of those was because of the cameo appearance by Heather Graham's nipples!).

I love Westerns, but there have been some absolutely dire ones released in the past couple of years. I am keeping my fingers crossed that "1883" will live up to expectations.

Terrible script, beautifully filmed. Amazing scenery and lighting. Very weird/cool soundtrack. But, it could have been so much better. The first 30 min is like a 'mumblecore' film, I had to use subtitles. It picks up a bit, but never really gets going. If you're bored, on a cold night, you could do worse than to watch this. But, I wouldn't go out of my way.
