In its final hour, The Last Days Of American Crime finally gets down to the business of its big heist, revealing both the propulsive entertainment value the filmmakers have been inexplicably stalling and the thinness of the whole enterprise. Read full review

The Last Days Of American Crime takes a potentially entertaining, if silly, premise and drains it of any reason to get invested. You can just imagine a John Carpenter would have doubled the thrills in half the time. Read full review

Even without the content of 2020 making the film feel even more unpalatable, Netflix's The Last Days of American Crime is a distractingly dull dystopian thriller with drab (and/or extraneous) characters and a squandered premise. Read full review

A braindead slog that shambles forward like the zombified husk of the heist movie it wants to be, The Last Days of American Crime is a death march of clichés that offers nothing to look at and even less to consider. Read full review

The only crime here is cinematic. It’s not often one sees a film as vile, ugly, and deeply incompetent as Olivier Megaton’s The Last Days of American Crime. Read full review

The idea of putting these images out there at this very moment, and pimping it out as “entertainment” is, frankly, nauseating. It goes from being a crime against an art form to something a little more toxic. No. Nope. Nuh-uh. Netflix, what the hell were you thinking? Read full review

"I need something bad and fast,” criminal Graham Bricke says to a weapons dealer early in The Last Days of American Crime. The Netflix action film definitely fulfills one of those criteria: It is so, so bad — but it is ever eye-gougingly slow. Read full review

I loved the film. It is a gripping, gritty and unflinching action film with great performances. The film is based on a comic book series published over 10 years ago and somewhat predicted today’s reality, government controlling the population, police state, and social unrest.

But the movie doesn’t make any social statements, it’s just a fun and violent at times action film with great actors. Don’t read the biased and politicized reviews from overly sensitive people who were probably flipping through Instagram while watching. Just enjoy a great movie and classic piece of Netflix content!… Expand

Is the film a masterpiece? No. Does it go on longer than it should? Definitely. Does it deserve the amount of hate it's getting. Absolutely not.

No. Does it go on longer than it should? Definitely. Does it deserve the amount of hate it's getting. Absolutely not. From what I can gather, a majority of the reviews who are hating this film, is those who can't seem to dissociate reality from fiction. Specifically, due to last years "fiery, but mostly peaceful protests" and correlating the film with police brutality. One review stating: This movie is the perfect escapism for fascists & roid-heads. If you have time to kill, give it a watch and form your own opinion.… Expand

Really Bad Movie from Netflix. The storyline was terrible, too much unneeded scenes.

The movie is terrible, save your time and watch something else, generic and pointless all around, very boring also a very plain story/plot.

I have no idea how someone can even give this more than a 3 perhaps, if you're giving this movie 8 or 9 points you must absolutely have no taste at all.

Had to make an account just to warn viewers to stay away from this drek. It's ugly. It's loud. It's incomprehensible. It's poorly acted, poorly written. Hard to believe it came from Netflix.
