Film Review - Last Call (2021)

LAST CALL 1

It’s amazing that “Last Call” is being released in 2021. It plays like something out of the mid-1990s, when Edward Burns was creating low-budget tales of Irish brotherhood and romantic troubles, setting these struggles in neighborhoods where families have existed for generations. Co-writer/director Paolo Pilladi is a bit late to the trend, but he’s trying to summon a good time with the feature, which observes the beginnings and endings in a crusty Pennsylvania town. Everyone likes a flavorful overview of community spirit, but “Last Call” is aggressively idiotic, with Pilladi overseeing a sitcom, not a movie, manufacturing relentless cliches and predictable turns of plot. He’s under the impression that broheim energy will cover for the picture’s lack of depth, but that doesn’t happen. Pilladi generates a depressing viewing experience instead, arranging the whole thing as a tribute to crabbing culture, but these people deserve better treatment than this dim dramedy.
