Review of The Last Castle (2001) by Avid C — 06 Jun 2013
The Last Castle is an army feel good movie set in an prison.
The good. Well planned out tactics. Solid action. A bit of suspense and intrigue. Nice acting. Well paced scenario.
The actors. Robert Redford, James Gandolfini, Mark Ruffalo, and Delroy Lindo give us a credible performance. Their lack of brilliance is not a reflection of their capabilities, but rather what they were given to work with.
The bad. Too much army heroic mentality. Not every soldier is like that.
The ugly. Single minded characters, lack of normal complexity.
The result. A satisfying testosterone flick. Do not expect more.
