Review: https://wp.me/p65txm-9R1/#TheLastShift

The movie was well done and interesting. Kept me entertained up to the very end. Unfortunately it's one of those movies without an ending. Grrr.

Very spooky! The cinematography, music, and storyline really scared me.

This was a movie that was recommended on a TikTok account, and I had high hopes of enjoying it. I kept waiting for it to get good, and eventually the movie was over and I was mad at myself for sitting through the whole thing.

This was a tender sad movie and Jenkins' performance was subtle and heart-breaking. I had hoped that they'd find a connection at the end (and maybe they will) but it was probably right that it ended as it did. I appreciated that it didn't go for the obvious American ending even though it left me feeling disappointed…it's life…

Richard Jenkins plays a thirty plus year fast food employee who is on the verge of retiring and begins training his replacement, a young African American looking to turn his life around from past mistakes. Jenkins, as always, puts on a fine and believable performance. I enjoyed this film and the relationship built between the two unlikely friends. Ed O'Neill costars as well.

I mean I kinda liked it, it passed the time. But I don't get the whole point of the movie, there was no story to it, just a couple struggling to get by. And a guy that deserved a lot more after 38 years of service. Basically just a "Discrimination" movie mentioning race n such.

"Slice of life" movie dealing with several issues in a naturalistic way. Old age, small town life, racial tension, immigration, family disagreements, poverty and the need to start over all were competently portrayed, but it didn't really engage me as much as necessary to get a higher ranking. I'm really not quite sure where the "comedy" part came in.

The premise was good, the movie itself was not

A strange movie, but at times quite funny.

Movies about fast food are generally watchable and able to keep the viewer focused, this was no different. Solid all throughout with solid acting, but there is a hint of propaganda to it, be it deliberate or coincidental in one direction or the other. The drawn out ending is kinda flat.

Good acting, good directing, good production value, good editing, the dialogue was realistic, but boring. The overall story was just a boring yet realistic series of events, that added up to nothing. It's almost as if someone decided to combine Training Day and Clerks, but decided to do so on Opposite Day.

Pure garbage. A movie that really takes no stance at any point in the movie and leaves it open for strange interpretation. Good acting, bad script and worse directing. If you want to torture someone lock them in a room and put this on.

Good themes, good umm....well that's about it for the goods. Slow and depressing, but if you can stomach the first act it gets a little more bearable in the second and third. Would not reccomend.

This movie is NOT a comedy! It's actually sad and upsetting and the plot has no depth at all; just a waste of time.

Richard Jenkins is a outstanding performer, but The Last Shift gives him pretty much nothing to do than mubble his performance into a uninteresting whole of a depressing working man drama, that gets even dragged down by the unneccessary inclusion of the annoying performance by Shane Paul McGhie, whoes journey actually holds down the plot and Jenkins his own development, which would have been the only interesting thing to follow.

It is a trash movie, I sat through it thinking okay stellar cast and production value might guarantee a quality movie, Would it surprise you to know that it is yet another movie that regurgitates the same political correct nonsense at expense to the plot and character dynamic ,so predictable and pretentious.

Great performances. Definitely low key movie theme. But thought provoking story of people who work hard but still manage to scrape out an existence at a lower socioeconomic level. Makes you think about how society pre-determines our expectations. The final scene just lingers in my mind. It is a quiet "wow" moment.

I saw another Richard Jenkins movie in a day! He played old and quiet fast food sandwiches maker and he was great. Shane Paul McGhie played new employee guy and he was nice. Ed O'Neill (Modern Family) did nice supporting role. Movie was slow and really dark, but I felt it was good. Co-Executive Produced by Alexander Payne (Director of Election, Sideways)

People don't want to see films with real working class folks living their lives without some huge zinger like zombies or super heroes. This is a perfectly acted and we'll written script that isn't overly preachy like many movies focusing on race. It focuses on how real people both black and white deal with these issues and the options open for them. Do I think it's a 5 star film? No. But in relation to the backlash against a film about real people doing real things I felt it necessary to boost the score. It deserves attention.
