Goofs

When William Blake uses the telephone box in the opening ten minutes, he first uses the phone to call 999, it rings but no answer, so we know the phone works. He then puts some change in the phone to make a second call but then changes his mind, and puts the receiver back down. At this point the change he put in should have come through the mechanism and into the slot in the bottom. You would hear this for sure as its quite a loud noise, this doesn't happen.

A poor man's 28 Days Later

STAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning

I could go to great pains to write a long, in depth review of The Last Seven, but it's hard to write much more about it other than my summary above. Right from the opening sequence, with one of the lead characters wondering around a deserted London shouting out for 'anybody!', just like in the aforementioned film, it just feels like such a pale imitation of it that it hurts. In fact, it's almost as if the director knew he was practically copying it scene for scene and just gave up bothering to tell any sort of decent story of his own. As such, it just goes through the motions of the post apocalyptic thriller genre, with the usual stereo-typical set up and characters, without firmly establishing the back story behind the majority of humanity being wiped out and making no sense. Most baffling is Danny Dyer's role as some sort of blood crazed zombie type character, probably the most mysterious thing about the whole uninspired mess. *
