The Last Seven-1080P

The Last Seven-1080P

I signed up to IMDb just to leave a comment about this film... it was so bad i borrowed a friends hammer to smash my eyes in... the lack of the usual hassan/dyer phrases and words such as tit, slag and caaaant was an even greater disappointment. it was so bad that i'd rather drag my balls through a mile of broken glass in order to press the button that napalms a vietnamese orphanage. If i am forced to watch this again... I will... Hunt you down... And kick u in the nuts!!! That is all

I have only just finished watching this movie... It is a very gripping and interesting movie, though a bit weird. It's the type of movie, if you were asked 'what's it about?', you would find it hard to answer as you would have no choice but give the plot and the twists away... I found it quite intellectual and full of weird things happening which don't make sense until the end, be prepared for a huge twist. I didn't find the movie particularly scary, though some definitely would. I have only seen two of the cast before and one of the cast has a cameo style role... All in all the cast did a reasonable job at the parts they had to play. The special effects were believable, there is an explosion which looks quite real and the blood / makeup looks good... Overall the film is not the best film I've ever seen, however there is enough here to keep you gripped and interested throughout. I am giving this movie a 7 out of 10.

I actually thought the opening scenes were brilliant and fascinating to watch, albeit he was wandering streets around Bank which are deserted for much of any weekend, but enough to reel you in & put yourself in the position, particularly on Tower Bridge. But the film then achieves a feat, surely never done before but going rapidly downhill the moment other characters & words are introduced into the plot. It never really goes anywhere after that, the opening 50 minutes felt more like the opening episode of The Last Train, Survivor, or a relatively low budget TV mini series, when you realise there's only 30 minutes left and the film hasn't really started. It then all gets even sillier, even more unrealistic and uninterested characters, you've never cared one iota for disappear with the help of over the top editing and flashbacks. You can't help wondering why not one of them, ever got into a car or on a bike and rode off somewhere, instead of walking for 10 minutes, then stopping to rest for a few hours. Worth watching for the first 15 minutes, then you're better off making up your own film from then - with the likelihood it'll end up better.

I found this to be an enjoyable film, well acted, filmed and with an intriguing story which takes some time to develop and also to fully comprehend. The scenes showing a London devoid of people were amazingly well done and set the tone and feel of the film rather well. This film did however, in my opinion, seem to borrow heavily from two other films, 28 Days Later and the New Zealand film entitled The Quiet Earth. To be fair, any film set in London where the population has disappeared is going to inspire comparisons to 28 Days Later. If you are looking for an action based film like 28 Days Later you will be disappointed, this film centers around the effects on survivors rather than horror, although there is an underlying threat ever present throughout the film. The ending contained a little bit of a twist but it made sense when taken into context with the rest of the film. In conclusion, I would happily watch this again.

First off all Danny Dyer fans might be disappointed as his character has very little time on the screen. You can ignore the claim by Ty Power that the film tells the story of a cataclysmic event that leaves only 7 remaining people on earth and their desperate struggle to understand the events as they are hunted one by one by a demonic power. All we know right up until the end is that the 7 people find themselves in one small part of London that is completely deserted and they don't know why they are alone or how they got there. It's true that some of them are hunted by Danny Dyer as "the Angel of Death" but the clue is in the name "Angel" not demon. Mostly the acting is good and Ronan Vibert deserves a mention as he stood out from the others, but the Henry Chambers character just doesn't cut it and I cannot tell if that's because the acting is below par or he had a poor script. Whilst on the subject of the script why is it that every film Dyer is in, the F**K word has to be repeated so many times. It is sometimes needed because Gosh or Blast is not enough but all too often it appears as nothing more than a filler to be used whenever the writer cannot be bothered to write. Perhaps Dyer has a clause that says any film he is in "must have a F**king F**K word every F**king three or four F**king words" There are a couple of twists at the end which add to the film and I would happily watch this again one quiet afternoon when nothing else was on.

Reading the synopsis I had quite high hopes for this movie which was rapidly vanishing after the first 15 minutes which consisted of a bloke walking around the deserted streets of London's financial district. The long drawn out fifteen minutes of nothingness may impress someone who has never walked those same central London streets at Dawn on a Sunday morning but it doesn't really work for someone who has. I got the distinct impression the makers were trying to force a point here which went way past its premise of a deserted major City. The obviousness of it had me concerned for the rest of the movie. Eventually our lone walker meets up with a trio, and they meet up with another trio and from there on in there's a lot of long drawn out scenes with intermittent quick flash editing that was intended to scare or intrigue. Im not really sure which but it didn't work. While I have no doubt most of the seven cast have decent acting abilities, their performances were wooden. Mind you its not as if they had anything meaty to really bounce off so those performances were really down to the directors vision. You cant just put some people in front of a camera, give them some lines and hope for magic, particularly with a movie like this which should provoke the audiences senses. Then again a number of lines in the script are quite appalling, as if they were written by a secondary school drama club. But surely the director must have known those lines were just plain bad and could have done something about them. For me the movie just plodded along until it came to a point where I was jeering for it to end. I had twigged on quite early their particular circumstance but how it lead to that I didn't know until the very end, so I do give the makers some points for that. In general though it was a rather garbled affair. Yes, it has a sense of continuity but it wasn't glued together very well. Its a movie that may very well have looked just smashing on paper, but hasn't translated so well to the screen. As indie movies go it is by no means the worst, far from it. Its shot quite well, does have some atmosphere, and can keep you interested. If you haven't seen something in this genre before it may well keep you very interested. But I've seen a lot of these psychological horrors flicks and this one falls short of the mark. Compared to another one I reviewed 'The Broken' now there's a movie that really gets to you on a psychological level. One of the death scenes in that movie still makes me feel uncomfortable a year after watching it. There no gore, its just incredibly moving? or disturbing? I cant really describe what it is. If The Broken cant scare you nothing will. I cant recommend the movie and I cant not recommend it. As I said, if you haven't seen this type of flick before you may very well enjoy it.

This film started similar to that of 28 days later, and tries to recreate the atmos of a deserted London, the line 7 million people until today...did have some intrigue, but this was soon dispersed....a guy(William) wakes up in the middle of the road in the financial district of London, and he wanders around in silence for about 15 minutes...vandalises a car in the vain attempt to see someone. He eventually meets up with a Drunk Henry, a young girl named Chloe,a military Sargent armed with a rifle called Mason. They too have no memory, and aimlessly wander the streets. The tension is poorly attempted by having a first person camera angle watch this trio, given the impression that they are being followed. This does not add any suspense and frankly destroys the atmosphere it tries to create, also the quiet whispering and blue lights which only adds to the confusion of why these characters are all alone in London. A few bizarre flash backs trying to keep the suspense, which in turn fails to add intrigue. and the four link up with a further trio Issac, Isabelle and Robert....you soon realise that they are all linked to one another. Big surprise. Chloe is Henry's daughter, Robert is Masons Captin, William is a reporter on the story of the young girl, but Henry forces a cover up, Isabelle is linked to Issacs wife....but Issac appears to be the loner, quoting from the bible and is oddly silent most of the time, the seven aimlessly wander the streets trying to find a reason. One unconvincing theory is a dirty bomb was detonated and everyone was evacuated. would have been more believable if the actors were not so stiff in front of the camera, and the lines were delivered with some skill, they all seemed to lack a sense of direction, no real vibe was felt with these actors, they all just waited their turn to deliver their lines and didn't react well together. Danny Dyer plays a small cameo role, black hoody, bandaged and blood coming from his eyes, He hunts each of the seven and succeeds in taking a few out. This character should have had more time on the screen, but i assume that this to add that air of mystery. The occurrence of the young girl who appears on a few occasions tries to give you some diretcion to the plot, along with the flashbacks, which is frankly weak. A girl is kidnapped and two armed men who you can possibly guess are special forces go to rescue her (Robert and Mason), but she is killed. Which then leads to the father, Issac, wanting to act his revenge on those involved and covering it up. Which leads you to the final conclusion all the characters were in a restaurant and Issac blows him self up with a nail bomb killing everyone, but Chloe who for some reason gets a second chance, and has starred the "grim reaper" (Danny Dyer) in the eye. The plot was weak, the acting poor i would have thought that Issac played by Ronan Vibert would have added some class, but it lacked any sense of direction, this film with the proper director and someone that could actually write a suspenseful script would have been so much better, if this was filmed by Hideo Nakata it would have been awesome. I had some hopes that this would be a good UK film but I am left thinking why the hell was this created.

The Director Naqvi achieves an impressive 28 Days Later-style atmosphere of deserted London it will be interesting to see what he can do with different material he creates effective horror beats, .The underrated Hassan has presence, and pretty much carries the film on his broad shoulders; Dyer's enigmatic, non-speaking role will be a relief to some.watchable British thriller the cast and crew really tried their best looking forward to seeing Simon Phillips in the upcoming jack falls which looks very interesting. The Last Seven is released in UK cinemas on Friday, August 27, and on DVD and Blu-ray on Monday, August 30, 2010.
