Last Sunset

Besides the fact that the film was shot very shoddily, it just seemed silly. While the film did keep my interest, I will give it that. It sometimes seemed to be a film that was supposed to be modern day mid 2000's and yet it seemed dated. No cell phones were seen or used as well an instant camera being used. Also, it was made clear the lover was 18 and yet he had a chest tattoo that looked worn. Obviously it was an older actor playing the part or else the character in the film was about 8 when he got said tattoo. Things like that annoyed me. Just sloppy. They could have easily covered the tattoo while there were also too many other loose ends and inconceivable storylines and circumstances.

To begin with this movie is supposed to be about a high school kids friends mom and the affair they have, but from what I watched, Sam the kid who is sleeping with his friends mom seems more like an obsessed stalker rather than anything else. It was very creepy how he called her constantly and showed up places where she was everytime she left the house. Do not waste your time watching this movie, I watched maybe half of it and shut it off. The guy who plays sam should not be able actor, he really sucks.

I don't know why the previous commenter didn't like it, but then again, he has not seen Backlash and Contract Killers. Those films were awful given their $300k budget, this one did draw me in to the character's desires and actions.

It is not the best shot film, but the want of Lisa is clear, and she plays it on the edge. The conflict needed more development, the climax is not that suspenseful, but I liked Joan's acting she pulled it off, given the low low budget production that it had.

Given the look of the film, and the poor sound, the best part was the she was in to her role and Corben's character was against his type, which worked well for me. In fact, I liked his character. He always plays these over the top but this time he was believably low key. I'd like to have him in my project, and this role was well done.

I didn't expect any thing from this film and thus it worked well for me. As long as I was emotionally pulled in to the character's desires, I would say that the film worked, and so did this.
