The Last Girl

Cult killer is a very different film to be honest and it left me kinda questioning some scenes and some characters also but this movie wasn't really as bad as people say , it had some good camera shots , above average soundtrack and THE BEST actor of all time and that is Antonio Banderas, Not only he saved the movie by his AMAZING performance but man he is such a good actor and this character reminds me of the other characters that he played in his past movies but Antonio's performance really made this movie to be a 7/10.

There are a lot of flaws on storytelling and the pacing and sometimes I don't really know what's happening but they really should've made the scenes appear clearer with a clear story but oh well at least the start was good.

Overall an OK film Antonio Banderas carried it 7/10.

The idea and concept of the movie are noteworthy, but the overall execution leaves a certain amount of disappointment.

The film strives to be tense and keep the viewer in constant suspense, but does not always achieve this due to uneven plotting and episodes that sometimes drag on.

Nevertheless, the film has some interesting moments and stylish visuals that give it a certain uniqueness.

The film does not lose its charm, although its realization could have been stronger.

Cult Killer is a movie worth watching if you are ready for an experimental approach and are not afraid of some flaws.

6/10.

I have never written a review before. At 65 and growing up watching movies all the time. I feel I needed to stand up for this movie. Yes, not for American tastes. More a European style acting and cinematography. It had a ton of flashbacks which were very well done. I am not usually in favor of short flashback scenes as they tend to ruin story lines confusing the viewer, not this movie. I felt story was well played and acted.

My only complaint would be the extra gore. I am not a fan of extra violence.

This may not be a true story, but I am fairly certain there are very accurate components. There is evil in the world.

So, I'm not a big fan of these straight-to-video productions. But I like Antonio Banderas (generally) so I watched the trailer. What was surprising is to see Alice Eve all covered up, which intrigued me. Of all the production I've seen Ms. Eve participate in, it's guaranteed that at some point she gets basically naked. This puts here firmly in the "sex kitten" bucket of actors, which means all the has to offer is basically her looks. A horrid example is Star Trek Into Darkness (2013) where she plays an important Trek character and does it quite well - but then hey had to get her naked. It's total fan service and insulting to the audience.

So, here's Cult Killer where she plays a leading role and no where in the trailer - in which she is featured prominently - does she expose anything but her head. Interesting, me thinks, they're going to let her act.

And the girl can actually act.

Aside from an introductory bit of flamboyance in the opening scene - in which she uses her womanly wiles and ample cleavage to shill drinks from eager oglers - she keeps buttoned up and covered in black turtlenecks and overcoats the rest of the film.

What follows is a type of coming-of-age story and a redemption arc for Eve's character, where she works a serial murder case (as a private investigator to the police) and find she has all too much in common with the killer and "their" motives.

I recommend this film to give Ms. Eve her belated due. Here is a film that's "okay" and "it's been done," but to see Ms. Eve allowed to showcase her acting chops is a delight.

I wish her all the success in the world.

I just does not work. You have solid actors which can definitely deliver and s script/story which seems ok adequate but the whole movie has the overall aesthetic of a lackluster filler episode from a bad television series.

The visuals, cinematography, and overall production design lack anything close to what I would expect in a film.

The character interactions are filmed so badly it feels like a documentary with people who really don't want to be there.

The most disheartening aspect is that I like all the main actors but felt that the film falls so short of its potential. The execution and overall presentation leave much to be desired.
