Dennis Harvey

Variety

Director and scenarist execute their tale with enough restraint - reflective of the lead character's stunted emotional range - to eke out poignancy from what's at core a somewhat predictable narrative arc.

The Hollywood Reporter

This warm-hearted charmer presses some obvious emotional buttons, but with enough deadpan humor and self-aware attitude to avoid schmaltzy overload.

It loses substance when it goes through a prefabricated sentimentality that smears it like a painting on canvas. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 6/10

One Last Deal locates some very universal and human truths within the tiniest of stories, then delivers its message via a precisely calibrated script and low-key, utterly believable performances.

Rated: 4.5/5

While a bit heavy-handed at times in its emotional manipulation, One Last Deal nonetheless does an effective job at drawing viewers into Olavi's circumstances.

Rated: 3.5/5

Few are the movies that take the viewer home . Music tells the story with perfect harmony along the actors. The last scene is a perfect ending to a simple, yet powerful story .

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A moving, heartfelt drama about an ailing, aging, mostly unsuccessful Helsinki art dealer seeking to make one final killing before retiring by buying and reselling an underrated and undervalued masterpiece, despite the many obstacles that get in his way. The film's intriguing story line, combined with fine performances by its excellent ensemble cast, make for touching drama and captivating multidimensional character development, a richly layered, skillfully integrated mix not often seen in a lot of contemporary cinema. This little-known Finnish offering has primarily been playing the film festival circuit, but it's time well spent if you get the chance to see it.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
