What to Know

Critics Consensus

Squandering a crackerjack premise, The Last Frontier stretches on for too long to sustain momentum while also leaving its potential largely unexplored.

Graeme Blundell The Australian Dec 15
The production is all class, the many set pieces organised with ruthless efficiency by Hargrave and the clever use of the soundtrack – similar to The Blacklist – wittily enhances mood and dramatic texture. Go to Full Review

The Last Frontier begins and ends on a high, but the middle crashes down to earth with slow, lumbering diversions that waste its cast and squander an incredible premise. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Going out of its way to offer up a new focus for each episode,...the show falls between hard-nosed procedural and Dad action. Go to Full Review
James Croot The Post NZ 6d
As anyone who sat through the increasingly wild and wildly implausible misadventures of James Spader’s Raymond Reddington will know, subtlety is not Bokenkamp’s strong suit, but he sure he knows how to deliver addictive action and thrilling escapism. Go to Full Review

"L’air Perdu" is the last thing that The Last Frontier needed so close to its finale. Go to Full Review

6/10
What makes this edgy, suspenseful manhunt/procedural series unique is the spectacular scenery, rugged landscapes cinematically captured by cinematographer Barry Donlevy. Go to Full Review

S M 1d I really enjoyed this, a bit of a twist on CIA stuff set in stunning Alaska with its real challenges. Enjoyed it being long so as to get into the characters and plot, but still gripping enough to facilitate the escapism I seek. Great cast. (Find other reviews unfair - some people get a kick from putting something down.) See more Zach J @johnsonz 3d Conair movie as a serial with poor acting, poor writing, every over done trope, ridiculous exposition drop. Every twist was predicted easily in episode one. See more Bucky W @Shucknuckerson 4d Show was awesome, so many twists and turns didn't know what was going to happen next. CIA canceled season 2, didn't like their portrayal obviously and any less than 3 star rating is a cia bot. Sure this is one fictional story but they have done much worse thing. Like historically factually accurately got caught busted things. Conspiracy fact. This was an action packed fictional story derived from real story's of how they operate way outside the law and act and believe they are above God. This was fun to see them get taken down, if even if just 0.0001% a notch See more Craig K @craigkerwin 5d Just awful. Stupid story line. Boring by the end of episode 1. See more Led 9 @Mr.James 5d Wanted to like it. Some of it is interesting but a lot of things didn't make sense. See more Edward A @Edanderson25 6d Good show worth a watch with all the junk they are putting out See more Read all reviews
