The Asian Cut

The strength of The Last Wife is Vũ’s ability to extend this balancing act throughout the entire film. At once, we see the larger picture and context of the time while also basking in the intimate glow of their affection.

Rated: 7/10

Common Sense Media

Thus, the film bounces between a serious romance epic tone and a comical one, and many might feel it would have been better served if it had chosen one tone.

In Review Online

The Last Wife is a sharp film with a level of dramatic consequence that one normally won’t find in historical romances of comparable popular appeal with their algorithmically designed and tidy happy endings.
