Review of The Last Supper (1995) by Bryan W — 26 Oct 2009
As the title suggests, there is a heavy, hard stab at the notions of biblical righteousness with plenty of symbolism in events, props, and character names, but the work is at its best in its moments of incisive humor and the particularly witty dialogue.
No actor is truly overworked in the film, but it would be fair to say that Bill Paxton and Ron Perlman, arguably the two biggest stars with the possible exception of Diaz, are the ones that steal the show.
Having high expectations will leave one wanting, but approaching the film as a source of obscure intellectual humor will doubtlessly yield dozens of snarky chuckles from young liberals and conservatives alike.
