Review of The Last Duel (2021) by Lambo442 — 04 Dec 2021

So many great actors, such a cool setting. The music is phenomenal, the battles are brutal, but it's the story that carries this film and sets it above so many others for me. I love this idea of three different versions of events being told and it fascinates me how some of them are twisted to suit that person's opinion of themselves or to suit their survival needs.

One of the ways I know I've seen a great movie is if I can't wait to watch it again and when I do I enjoy it even more. Its exciting, funny, touching and disturbing. Its about honour, love and bravery.

There are heroics, but they are relative to the day and age so don't be shocked if your hero is himself a fallible and petit man. Ben Affleck steals the show for me here as an actor. He completely transforms himself and is a joy to watch.
