Ok love story, just a bit unpolished
Of course this was ripped by seasoned critics, but it can appeal to some as cute. Acting/writing not very polished, lacking believability. But we watched and pulled for a good outcome for both because we, as many have faced similar struggles. Love NYC settings and hated Lou Diamond's character.

I highly recommend

It opens a bit cheesy; ok a lot cheesy.. but give it a minute. Give it a chance. The storyline is beautiful and while it seems the acting may be lacking at times I think the script (dialogue, not plot) was just somewhat difficult to work with; and once you get to "know" the characters it becomes much more fluid & palatable. I'll agree that it may be a little rough or unpolished here & there but I've never written a movie review and I literally took the time to pull this thing up, create an account and write a review so that should say something. This movie is going in my favorites. It had depth, it made me cry.. I fell in love with both of the characters and their relationship. I know I already used the word but I think it was: beautiful. I'm glad I bought it; I'll watch it many times in the coming years.

The Last Train, by Anthony Montes Film review by C.K. Geraghty

The recently released film, The Last Train, by Anthony Montes, is for the fortunate viewer, an unexpectedly found treasure, as if one stumbled upon a precious gemstone while grasping for loose change, and the discovery's hidden riches escalate in value and profundity as the story unfolds. The premise of The Last Train initially engages us in the struggle of two battered human beings, nearly broken by the tragedies each has endured. Without sentimentality, by simple and honest study of human interaction, the film transmutes a perspective from existential pessimism into a recollection of the power of compassion, and is a reminder of the endless possibilities for the healing and redemption of the heart. With understated simplicity, The Last Train reveals how real love between any two human beings, no matter how defeated and wounded each may be, has the power to mutually redeem the other from despair. Thus human suffering is divinely alchemized to gold. Both lead actors, Anthony Montes and Danielle Ciera, give raw performances. Ciera, as "Rain", (her stripper name), is unavoidably adorable and accessible, despite her tough defenses and cold attempts to push "Anthony", Montes, away from her. Her performance is infused with delightful, quirky authenticity and childlike openness. Montes, simmering in understated grief, draws us into the complexity of facing life's tragedies, with all its attendant guilts and regrets. It is by recognizing Rain's indisputable worth as a human being that Anthony finds a way to resurrect enough self love to awaken his heart and to choose to live again. At the close of The Last Train, we are left with the inevitability of accepting life's darkest and harshest trials in order for us to move into the light of life's new beginnings.

Loved this Film
mattiedaisy-5221213 July 2021
I Loved the relationship between Rain & Tony.

Terrific Acting, Writing & Directing. The story of two broken people who find each other, reminded me of so many plays as that I love like, Danny And The Deep Blue Sea, The Woolgatherer, Brilliant Traces & Seascape With Sharks And Dancer. This film could also work as a play. I look forward to seeing more from this team. Bravo!
