Check out my full review @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/the-last-house-movie-review-louis-leterrier-builds-a-remarkable-house-but-story-misses-its-furnishing/ Rating: C+ THE LAST HOUSE is a film of two very different halves — a sluggish, oddly toneless first hour that squanders a genuinely intriguing premise, followed by a back stretch that finally locates the tension and craft the setup always promised, only to rush its way to an ending more interested in sequel-baiting than resolution. Greta Lee and Wagner Moura are doing real work here, and the fully built, physically degrading house is a legitimate technical achievement that elevates every scene shot inside it, but the script never digs past the surface of its own ideas, leaving genuinely rich thematic territory — isolation, technological dependency, what security actually costs a family — almost entirely unexplored. It’s a divisive movie, one that’s likely to frustrate as many people as it entertains, and it’s easy to see why Netflix sat on the embargo until the last possible moment.
