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.

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
J. Kelly Nestruck Globe and Mail Oct 16
It’s too bad the underwhelming overall arc is just the latest proof that “10-episode thriller” is an oxymoron. 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

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

Cybele J @Belle11 40m Agree implausible, weaker dialogue, but appreciate the premise. Enjoyed cinematography, some of the actors. I hope they do renew it. I think there is more to explore. Music choices were a plus. See more Teresa M @TCM831 3h It wasn’t an A list show, but thought it was highly entertaining. See more Sean M @Skippy1 6h So many flaws and unbelievable scenes....the small convict in the cabin recovering from sickness and bloodless casually strangles the burly cop, the tourists in the bus see the convicts coming across the wilderness and wait for the last possible moment to try and flee...and are caught....I could go on...jason Clark as usual is excellent ...could have been brilliant but ended up mediocre See more @Ronan007 6h I wish I'd read reviews before watching... overall disappointing. Good: Setting in Alaska Premise of the story Lead actor had charisma Bad: Too long and full of inconsistencies and coincidences. Some weak/hammy acting (probably because of the poor script Characters that were not believable See more ADRIENNE O @AOL79 12h It is as if they wrote some script pages, went to bed, and then wrote more pages the next day, forgetting what they wrote the previous day. Wasted potential to the point of being insulting to the audience. See more N8ture B. @N8tureBoy 15h It was like Sharknado, but without the shark. See more Read all reviews
