This movie literally put me to sleep. I don't know what's going on with the editing but there are these long, never-ending shots of him walking outside, or sitting on a chair...It was mind-numbingly boring. And there's no plot progression. Its... Full review

"Last Days", Gus Van Sant's experimental film loosely inspired by Kurt Cobain's, err, last days, is not one of his best, but it's certainly not the worst (the "Psycho" remake, anyone?). Even though it's not half as poignant as the... Full review

I'm here to defend this brilliant film from those who have labelled it a bad watch. It's true that last Days isn't a film for everyone, nirvana fans are best to stay well away as the sight of their icon... Full review

The film's cinematic style of the late Kurt Cobain (played by michael pitt) was great for a movie to not even be about the late Front man, lead singer for Nirvana, Cobain. The visual effects of this fim were astounding, the... Full review

Even though I really like some of Gus Van Sant's older movies (DRUGSTORE COWBOY, MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO,...) and I do appreciate the fact that he dares to do something different (in terms of stepping away even further from mainstream... Full review

So I'm glad that I rented this movie, not seen it in theaters. It was alright....I mean not an accurate portrayal of Kurt, but it was good enough. No one really know's what he went though during the time when he... Full review

an unequivocal art film about an icon, it's fantastic.....Last Days is painfully slow, nothing happens....Last Days is poetic, moving and offers a grace to Cobain's life.... ... Full Review

The Conclusion In short, Last Days is something of a disappointment and a hard film to recommend without first warning you what you're letting yourself in for. Whilst it may sound like a vaguely coherent plot, there's very little dialogue and Van Sant shoots each scene in long, single takes, frequently in long shot. ... Full Review

Chart Magazine
Last Days successfully accomplishes all of the goals that Gus Van Sant had in mind when he made it, but that doesn't make it a good film. In fact, as a piece of art, Last Days is almost a complete failure. ... Full Review

And yet the film is less depressing than quietly romantic, more emotionally elusive than morally judgmental. ... Full Review
