Reviews

Anke Westphal from epd Film explains that even if a last job is advertised by the distributor as a black-humored detective comedy, it is actually a rather leisurely, dramatized, classic heist movie with a more realistic paint job , in which the gags seem quite artificial and even out of place, including the jokes about the old people's lack of digital affinity. “Even the fantastic cast [...] cannot make the film stand out from its lack of decision-making in tone and staging. Michael Caines is most likely to be of interest to Brian: After the sudden death of his wife, he lacks the meaning of life that he hopes to find again in the robbery, ”said Westphal.

synchronization

The German dubbing was based on a dialogue book and the dialogue direction by Harald Wolff on behalf of TaunusFilm Synchron GmbH, Berlin.
