 | Great for Rourke and Buscemi fans
rating: 3
The Last Outlaw is a must-see for Rourke, Buscemi and Mulroney fans. They all play the perfect outlaws, cold-hearted yet very sensitive. This post-civil war TV western works very well from beggining to end. Great script, art direction, acting and pacing. A relentless chase in the middle of nowhere which will keep you wondering what's going to happen next.

The Last Outlaw
rating: 5
I saw the movie years ago, and I thought about it a while back and looked it up on Amazon, and to my suprise, they had it. It was just like it was years ago. A very good modern day production western. Lord, I wish that they would make more of them. Where is Clint Eastwood and James Arness when you need them?

The Last Outlaw - western
rating: 5
Somewhat gruesome, but so life like. My favourite western movie, it offers everything, the costumes, the settings, the story and awesome attention to details. To me it rates right along with other movies... 'Gone with the Wind' and 'Dr Chivago.'

Worthy Shoot'em UP
rating: 4
This gives you all you want in a western; guns, fights, dirty cowboys, a bank heist, ambushes, wide open scenery and awesome wild horse rides all with a high body count (almost every single character dies). However real the tough terrain is (I felt like I was there on the dusty planes, riding a horse) the story is at times unbelievable. The sometimes problem is Mickey Rourke, who does not come close to ruining the movie, but somehow over-acts and under-acts at the same time. Rourke plays it too aloof almost detached from the entire movie. I wish he had more fire or creative quirks. Rather he just stands there, whispering menacing things without clear motives. When he is in action, he seems kinda slow and too deliberate. Overall Rourke does not appear "cowboy". His goth/pirate wardrobe and make-up do become distracting.
But a strong cast (unfortunately I don't recall one female in this movie),strong directing, great horse rides and inspired scenery saves a script with some holes and a slow motion outlaw played by Rourke.
