Reviews
Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
Mark Holloway All through this movie, I was hoping the plot would not be quite so obvious. It was.The acting is wooden.The clichés numerous.The 'special effects' terrible.This movie has few, if any redeeming features.
srdjan_veljkovic Everything here is underwhelming, from the story, to the acting, all the way to directing and visuals.But, it's not really terrible. Sure, it's hard to believe that Catherine Bell could kick ass around, but, she's actually more believable in that situation than, say, Uma Thurman. The technology that Bell is supposedly good at is pretty silly, too, but, again, it and she are more believable than, say, Sandra Bullock in "The Net". The story is somewhat interesting, though there's many things wrong in both the story itself and the way it's told.The best thing about the movie is that you want to find out how it ends just enough to stick with it. The ending, while predictable and not really surprising, is not obvious and you don't feel somehow cheated or tricked.It feels like "another day at the office" for everyone involved. If you're in a compatible mood, taking a rest while watching this is OK.
guil fisher First of all the leading lady Catherine Bell was so unbelievable that I had to laugh at this little woman knocking out all the men around her, forcing police cars off the road and generally being a pain in the butt. I was laughing at most of the picture. She looked cross eyed most of the time and definitely not an attractive person to watch on a large screen. Why is this actress working? Then the plot was silly and most of the time just boring to watch. Kept turning to another channel for relief. But wanted to see the ending. I just can't get over all of these large men being attacked by her and she the victor. That made this totally unbelievable. I kept wanting someone to catch her and lock her up. But she keeps getting away with breaking the law. What a waste of Anthony Michael Hall. That's it. Dislike this actress.
jagfanlinda Close Quarters, released under name of The Last Man Standing. This fast paced action flick is Lifetimes breakout from "ladies" and family films. Stars Catherine Bell as soccer mom married to vet. making pancakes, telling bedtime stories to small daughter. Typical stay at home mom and wife. Suddenly her quiet little warm life falls apart when her husband is taken . She has to reach back into her past. A past she has locked away. To find the reason and save the man she loves. This great film uses fast flashbacks to show us her background as secret operative for the military.It moves very fast. Lots of action, blasts, fights,)Catherine does the car chase driving herself) kinks and turns. Who is after he and why? Catherine Bell is excellent as the ex-secret agent. She does most of the tricks and kicks herself. The dead and injured pile up like stove wood. The Last Man Standing (Close Quarters0 is written by team of Jolene Rice (Still Small Voices) and Adam Beason, Catherine's real life hubby. Excellent writing, acting and very great story. See again on June 11th. Do not miss this one
