The Last Passport

The Last Passport is a great movie! An awesome story of normal people dealing with life's problems. There's a good moral, with great perspective! The acting can be a little stiff and seem forced at times, but the end makes up for it. Jimmy Hager gives a good performance...sometimes a bit stiff, but most of the time very genuine with his feelings, but not over the top. Chris Cruthfield is another great job. Jimmy and Chris seemed to have good chemistry and timing. I was never sure where it was really heading or what to expect, but it was a pleasant and heart warming story that makes you think about your place and attitude.

I watched The Last Passport with my teenage son. Knowing the story behind the story of how the film was made in 30 days for only $5,000 allowed me the luxury of not expecting a Hollywood blockbuster. In a time where all movies seem more interested in CGI, special effects, explosions, sex, nudity, and violence, and they forget that we want a story. This film delivers and doesn't need anything but a compelling story and wonderful characters. This movie had everything any blockbuster has and more.

I've watched it twice now and look forward to watching it again to find all the hidden clues and wonderful messages I may have missed the first two times.

Jimmy Haggar is simply wonderful and doesn't even seem to be acting. I look forward to finding more material he is in and for whatever Lucky You brings next.

Great job!!!!

A jewel of a little story done on a shoestring that brings to life precious nuggets of humanity that can come to light just waiting in a passport office. Jimmy Hager's character interacts with an endless stream of interesting characters coming thru the door and he affects each of them in different but positive ways. Is he an angel?.....you have to watch the ending to find out. Comic relief provided by Dave Blamy is a welcome pace changer.

The way in which this film was made proves that huge budgets are not necessary if the story is sound and interesting. Set only in a believable passport office and done in 30 days, from script to post, it is probably unique and in a class of film of its own.

This movie is so inspirational in so many ways. Yes, created between some incredibly talented people in 30 days for only $5,000. And the story, is not a story its everyday life. The talent this movie holds came together and built this film. It shows they exercised the very same morales we teach our children everyday. Be kind, be respectful, be patient.. You can literally see in this film that behind the cameras a set that took place was looked upon as a chapter in their lives- past, present, future. Heart and Soul was poured and a delightfully heart shaped filmed was produced. Its a great reminder and eye opener to the fact that we each have the ability to look around us and see everyone as an equal, as a human being. This story line is passionate, heartfelt and a good morale booster to encourage change. Change for the good.

This would make an excellent stage play. It's so eloquently written with its wonderful take on life's foibles and insecurities. The lead is what makes this film with his scholarly take on life. And yet the film doesn't take itself 100% seriously. After all, life often makes us shake our head in comedic disbelief. The ending is truly worth waiting for and exhibits a real crispness and surreal clarity. There is enough in this film to lead to different interpretations; and that is exactly what makes The Last Passport such an enjoyable viewing. It does have a David Mamet kind of feel to it. While most of the acting is quirky, some is truly heartfelt!
