What to Know

Critics Consensus

Last Love benefits from a typically strong Michael Caine performance, but it's ultimately too mawkish and dawdling to make much impact.

Mark Kermode Observer (UK) A melancholic cross between Venus and Goodbye, Mr Chips, which could have been more enticingly entitled Venus and Chips. Rated: 2/5 Jul 14, 2014 Full Review Geoffrey Macnab Independent (UK) The film is a little too soft-centred to do justice to its own themes of bereavement, jealousy and family breakdown. Rated: 2/5 Jul 10, 2014 Full Review Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) It soon becomes clear that the chances of Caine and Poésy's characters' lop-sided relationship germinating into something interesting are vanishingly slim. Rated: 2/5 Jul 10, 2014 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies “Last Love” is a poignant film about lost souls desperate to plug holes in their lives. It’s charming, sweet, somber, and heartbreaking. Rated: 4/5 Aug 23, 2022 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Nettlebeck has amassed an interesting cast likely to attract attention, so it's disheartening that the film is ultimately a rather ungainly and predictable familial drama. Aug 29, 2019 Full Review Stephen O'Nion One Room With A View A near-glacial two hours that somehow forgets to explore two of its more interesting characters - an impressive feat considering it only really has three to begin with. Rated: 2/5 Jun 15, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Giorgio G Though Michael Caine is surely a great actor, I was never a great fan of his as he mostly had this air of arrogance. But somehow this part of Mr. Morgan seems to have been written for him and his personality. One just made for the other. Thus said, the story is heartwarming, deeply showing the dilemma of elderly people, once they are left alone, but not in a sad and desperate way. Pauline is like a fresh bright candle, a new book to be read, a new country to be explored, but often wrapped up in her own problems herself. It's a sweet story with various characters soul searching for solutions. Beautifully produced and perfectly performed. 7/10 points!. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/18/25 Full Review Edgar Alberto G Didn’t like the ending Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/30/25 Full Review Daniel G This movie was unexpectedly enigmatic. Much was said that I'm not sure I really understood exactly what information or family secret the protagonists were trying to convey. How did a Princeton's professor family become so rich? And Michael Caine playing an American just didn't ring so true. Besides, the movie was really slow. But it wasn't bad - maybe we were just too tired to watch it. And Paris is such a photogenic city - I really became a bit nostalgic and sad that I didn't grow up there... Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/25 Full Review Audience Member She’s terrific. She rescues Michael Cains character- and pisses me off by going after his depressed married son. It’s SLOW. But I couldn’t put it down. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/26/20 Full Review richard c Nice performances by Michael Caine and Clémence Poésy balances some rather bland performances. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member O Último Amor de Mr. Morgan (2013) - #MovieReview 3,0 ?? Viúvo conhece ao acaso jovem professora de dança que o faz sair da amargura da perda da esposa e problema com os filhos. Belo filme sobre a velhice e perda dos entes queridos. Caine se destaca.
