Peter Debruge Variety 09/18/2020
If you're going to make an ultra-low-budget movie that takes place in real time, everything really ought to be planned out meticulously in advance, but there's so much dead space here, and it's unfair to ask composer Adrian Ellis to fill it all... Go to Full Review

It’s a very human tale which connects with many of us and it’s a film that has to be seen to be believed. Go to Full Review

3/5
An entertaining ride for horror fans which benefits from great production design, The Call uses its clichés for a purpose and has fun along the way. Go to Full Review
Dennis Harvey 48 Hills 09/26/2020
This somewhat pedestrian documentary by Jon Brewer doesn't have enough performance footage, and has too much commentary by some questionable experts. Go to Full Review

3/5
Intensely personal, evocative drama about suicide. Go to Full Review
Joel Fisher Battle Royale With Cheese 09/21/2020
The drama never exploits the themes of suicide and grief to manipulate its audience, instead giving a realistic and heart-breaking account of a man whose life is on the line and will stay with its audience long after viewing. Go to Full Review

Jonathan K Apr 13 It's a moving little indie film, serving as a vehicle for some challenging acting with very long, almost completely continuous shots. As it turns out the acting is okay, not detrimental to the approach but not elevating. It's a really sad movie though, and the split-screen style is probably just what it needed to show the fullness of each character's experience. It's a cool feat to pull off, but did make it feel like the movie was almost more about that gimmick than the script or performances. See more dan b 11/29/2022 to me it was so boring, like so much wasted film time about nothing, dumb questions over and over, it was like they only had enough money to pay two actors and made up a bunch of stuff, I couldnt get through it See more 09/21/2022 Film typu przegadany - tylko 2 aktorów i ekran podzielony na pół. Do wielu osób nie przemawia, ale dla mnie mocny i strasznie mi wchodzi na psyche See more chris d 08/04/2022 Far from pedestrian, a captivating piece of cinema, a movie that will permantly cycle in my library for decades. Great acting, and love the split screen that didn't ever draw you two directions at once, never too much action in the 2nd view to steal from where the director wanted you to look. One of the few movies to cover this material well in the thousands I've seen in person and on screen. A great piece of cinema that will be remembered as long as I'm alive. See more dave d 07/29/2021 Sarah Booth and Daved Wilkins are names you've likely never heard of. Last Call has been the name of so many movies, and this one in particular may be the least heard of them all. It makes for a fascinating film shown in split screen with two shots simultaneously. There are two people who never meet but are in view for essentially the entire runtime. Once these two connect we have tension and depending on your level of apathy, a rather cerebral film. Final Score: 7.4/10 See more 02/28/2021 At a time where movies are so predictable, this movie breaks that barrier with this amazing continuous shot with a split screen. Your eyes can't stay off the screen because it's so gripping and poignant. Sarah Booth brings an emotional intensity that is so raw it's beautiful (but also painful) because she makes you feel every moment and every word she says. What a refreshing take on filming with a very real message that doesn't placate to the audience but just lays out a real and authentic story. See more Read all reviews
