Leslie Felperin Guardian 08/02/2022
3/5
Mossman’s score and the filtered, painterly cinematography by David Gallego are by some distance the film’s most interesting features; the rest of the drama is in fact a slog, full of ponderous long takes and somewhat tinny dialogue. Go to Full Review Christy Lemire RogerEbert.com 12/10/2021
2/4
For a tale that's the classically heavy stuff of Greek tragedy, The Last Son offers woefully little suspense or momentum. Go to Full Review Michael Nordine Variety 12/09/2021
Worthington has been inconsistent in the past, but he's solid in a role that emphasizes his physical presence while only calling on him to speak when absolutely necessary. Go to Full Review Tom Dawson Radio Times Aug 11
3/5
The performances are great and the film impresses on a technical level, its menacing score and the widescreen compositions of wintry landscapes both having impact. Go to Full Review Chris Ward Flickering Myth 08/19/2022
The Last Son is a one-and-done viewing experience even for the hardcore western fan. Go to Full Review John Townsend Starburst 08/09/2022
2/5
Tim Sutton has taken Greg Johnson’s simple, yet interesting premise and produced a slow-burning, grim and gritty film that barely scratches the surface of its potential. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Peter 12/17/2021 A little different than what I expected but good nonetheless. See more Ian S @RT48225084 07/21/2025 Odd western. Some nice visuals and the music was different but the story was lacking and most of the characters were puppets and one dimensional. See more Aubrey B @RT32415483 11/11/2024 Four stars only for Alex Meraz as Patty. This is the only reason why I kept watching. Machine Gun Kelly in a western doesn’t make any sense because I know that man is dating Megan fox and doesn’t have a cowboy/western enough fav to make him believable in this era See more gwhiteye 11/19/2023 Half way decent acting... a story that could have made better sense if told with a few more details, but overall pretty bad. See more Kandy A @RT74818817 10/25/2023 This film lacks an understandable story line. An idea which does not deliver. Best thing about it is a quality cast and they deliver. Worst thing about it is a WTF experience at the end. See more Greg B @Mac6897 01/31/2023 Dark, boring, and predictable. Good cast...wasted opportunity. See more Read all reviews
