Is the action good enough to give the humorless One Last Kill a pass? Yeah, just barely. So STREAM IT I guess, but you’ll be wise to temper your enthusiasm.
-
The special is ultimately a mixed bag, doing little to elevate the character or engage the audience that’s already deeply familiar with The Punisher. Still, its low barrier of entry means that a few new people might find the character and dive deeper into his story.
-
At times, “One Last Kill” feels more like a long, drawn-out mood than a completely satisfying story in itself. It starts strongly, has a brutal middle section, and ends on a haunting note, but it lacks the complex plot of the best Punisher tales.
-
While trying to cram in all his psychological baggage and high-octane action in 48 minutes, the special is fairly messy. .... However, when “One Last Kill” lives up to its promise of being a chaotic, ultraviolent shoot-em-up, it’s a real blast.
-
“One Last Kill” tries to ground the carnage in Frank’s pathos and sense of righteous vengeance, but that combination never fully clicks.
-
What starts as a promising, street-level perspective on a tiny corner of Manhattan (accomplished far more convincingly than "Daredevil: Born Again" ever managed to do) eventually goes the way of pretty much anything else the MCU touches: an empty vessel for more empty spectacle to come.
-
A barrage of elaborate stunt work that plays like little more than one-third of a “John Wick” movie, leaving “One Last Kill” with lots of kills, but half a script.
