This may sound heartless, but I did not expect to care about this movie. I was born after Vietnam, I'm not American, I never served and neither did any of my close friends. But this amazing cast elevated it to so much more than a movie about grief about a fallen soldier. You can see many different things in this movie, but for me it was a movie about friendship. Trying to bond again when that connective tissue you once had is no longer there. Over the course of the road trip Fishburne, Carell and Cranston manage to converge and ultimate rediscover there old friendship, creating one of the most heartwarming stories I've seen recently.

Another winner from Linklater. Amazing actors give fantastic performances and share frank and honest conversation, about a myriad of issues, from life, to government, to faith and all around.

I was really surprised how GOOD this movie was... plenty of laughs and a great story. Bryan Cranston proves once again how terrific an actor he is. Steve Carell and Laurence Fishburn are also superb. 9/10

Despite being far from his best outings, _Last Flag Flying_ is very much a Richard Linklater movie, and it bears all the defining traits of the director, from the focus on character-driven dialogue to the expert juxtaposition between humor and drama. The character interaction and their history suck you in and the movie feels much shorter than it is, which is a great accomplishment for the film, especially with it being as dialogue heavy as it is. Bryan Cranston obviously got the more fun role to play, but I found the standout to be, as he often is these days, Steve Carell. The man is doing some exceptional work and just this year we've seen him in two completely different roles - this and as Bobby Riggs in _Battle of the Sexes_ - and he has absolutely owned both of them.

Last flag flying is not the best or worst Richard Linklater movie. Have you even seen Boyhood? Why waste 10 years of your life when you can use CGI to make someone look younger? Anthony Hopkins judges you. Jokes apart, Boyhood is a really good movie but ( don't kill me for saying this), I would More

One of the funniest films I have watched in some time. Great writing and acting.

Fishburne, Carell, and Cranston make up an unlikely trio that embarks on an epic journey of forgiveness. At once critical and respectful of the US, a reminder that what makes a country is those that choose to live an More
