Film Threat

There are so many wonderful, well-crafted scenes in The Last Suit. Pablo Solarz’ script is a multilayered masterpiece.

The Seattle Times by J.R. Kinnard

Much like David Lynch’s “The Straight Story,” a broken-down Abraham is forced to accept the kindness of strangers along his journey. In return, this proud Jewish tailor bestows the life wisdom that came at a terrible price.

Original-Cin by Jim Slotek

The Last Suit has its narrative flaws and leaps of faith. But the sheer force of its central character’s untethered voyage of discovery – and the acting behind it - overcomes all.

75

Movie Nation by Roger Moore

As horrific as the subtext is, Solarz finds universal humor in a cranky old man on this one last quest. But he doesn’t let Abraham, assorted bystanders or the audience off the hook either.

Los Angeles Times by Robert Abele

The Last Suit is a bumpy ride tonally, but its stubborn heart is in the right place.

Variety by Alissa Simon

[A] touching, albeit occasionally heavy-handed, drama.

The Hollywood Reporter by John DeFore

An engaging performance by veteran Argentine actor Miguel Angel Sola is the main selling point here, helping put across some, but not all, of the story's more dubious developments.

The New York Times by Ben Kenigsberg

An unfortunately contrived Holocaust drama that labors under the delusion that the subject matter lends itself to uplift.
