Last Rampage: The Escape of Gary Tison

So, now Robert Patrick has played two perfect roles. The second Terminator and, with "Last Rampage", the irredeemable killer Gary Tison.

While he is the best part of this film, his partner in crime, Randy Greenwalt, is equally well played by Chris Browning. The rest of the cast is stellar, too - you'll empathize with Bruce Davison's portrayal of "Cooper", the ensemble cop honor-bound to end the Tison Gang's "Last Rampage".

This film is violent and excruciating. Violent, because it's about violent escapees. Excruciating, because we all know young men who mistakenly grow to admire wicked fathers only to run afoul of their father's sins. Who would willingly place all three of their sons in harm's way? Simple. A psychopath.

Watch this film for a solid and inspired rendition of real-life horror and actual monsters. Then you'll know why you should never, ever stop for stranded strangers waiting alongside a desert highway at night!

The movie was boring and unimpressive. I'd have more thrills watching a documentary about this true crime.

Its been done before (with a much better team of actors) so why repeat the tale of such a a dreary low level thug?

The events were previously depicted in the 1983 film, "A Killer in the Family", starring Robert Mitchum as Gary Tison, with his sons played by James Spader as Donny Tison, Eric Stoltz as Ricky Tison and Lance Kerwin as Ray Tison. This 2017 version is based on the non-fiction book Last Rampage: The Escape of Gary Tison by University of Arizona Political Science Professor James W. Clarke.

The book read must be as dull a read as the film was in dull viewing content. I don't know why American Directors/Producers/audiences are so interested in such bottom crawler dross story's about thugs; after all they are certainly no Al Capone level thugs! If they are so enraptured about the early days of American scumbags they should at least use the plentiful stock knowledge about people the US public will have at least heard of...like JFK's gangster father Joe or the wife beating Richard Nixon (the highest corruption level government thug in America's political history) The list goes on and on ...and on!

Watch if you want to but I will be perfectly honest with you...IMHO it was worthless, uninteresting and pointless in its making! But you won't know that unless you watch it and there is your dilemma :)

Good enough of a cast, to make a good crime thriller, to bad the apple didn't fall far from the tree. Them boys are dumb as a door nail, the only thing I had an issue with was the somewhat of a southern accent, they sounded more like they were from Texas

One would expect someone: director, costume dept, anyone, would had least made a reasonable effort to get the facts near accurate. The Arizona DPS patches worn by the Arizona Highway Patrol (AHP)did not exist, neither did DPS. It was called the Arizona Highway Patrol. They wore Smokey Bear hats, not cowboy hats. Why is the "Sheriff" wearing the uniform of the AHP? Either he's a county sheriff (Pinal County) or a AHP ranking officer.

Why is everyone talking like they are from Alabama? Arizonans speak w/o any accents, I ought to know, live there for 50 years now.

Gary Tyson was a fat slob, not lean and trim like Patrick. And there are plenty of cacti near Casa Grande (for those who say only in Tucson). Everyone of his sons were sociopaths. Don't buy into the" innocent boys" line.
