To see a frail looking Burt Reynolds is quite shocking at first, though when you get used to him looking like that, glimmers of the old Burt shine through. This script could actually be about him, with a few exceptions of course. To see him go through the story, it's emotional as it relates not just to his character, but to him, which tugs on the heartstrings. Although there are quite humorous parts aswell, so it is an emotional rollercoaster, as you relate the story to him in most parts rather than the character which I did. It is definitely worth a watch.

I'm not certain how much I would have enjoyed this movie when it came out last year but today, days after Burt Reynolds' death, I think it was a wonderful movie and he will go off maybe a little more humble than we remember him. WIth all that Burt has shared about his personal life and missed opportunities and regrets, let's try to remember that your life isn't over and your choices can still be changed until you breathe your last breath. Don't make your life one of regret, while you still have a chance to change things.

RIP Burt Reynolds. Watched Smokey & the Bandit last night then saw The Last Movie Star tonight. Wow was not expecting the rush of emotions, the laughter, reminiscence and enjoyment I would get. Is this movie ironic? Maybe. It was well done, and the timing is chilling. If you grew up appreciating good old fashioned, twinkle in the eye, tongue in cheek movie stars, you'll truly appreciate everything this movie encompasses. Didn't know much about Ariel Winter but you pull for her character to get to where she ends up in this movie. I hope you enjoy this, raise a glass and give a fond farewell to a really flawed, yet truly decent dude.

Think of this as Ingmar Bergman's "Wild Strawberries" or Woody Allen's Strawberries/"Deconstructing Harry." It's a sweet film enhanced by Burt Reynolds performance. Underrated as an actor with great comedic timing, his charm helps bring depth to this film. Some technical glitches and sentimental moments, but an enjoyable tale.

I chose to watch this film, frankly, because I was bored and wanted to waste a couple of hours, not really expecting too much... but WOW.... This has to be one of Burt Reynolds finest films. Forget about his previous cheesy corny guffawing, winking-at-the-camera roles, this is a powerful raw honest, emotional film, that not only echoes his own life, but also makes one examine their own lives, mistakes, and reflecting on one's own direction in life. Burt thoroughly deserves an award for this film. If you don't get a lump in your throat at the end, you are made of stone. Well worth watching.

Burt was my hero growing up for many of the reasons why many other guys liked him: his charisma, charm, smarmy attitude, rogue behavior and wit. He had qualities that so many stars lack. In his most personal role ever he recounts the pivotal cornerstones of his life, the good times. the bad times and the success which also destroyed much of what he cherished. The most touching part comes at the end where he addresses the audience at his award ceremony with painful honesty and humility. It's definitely a humanistic picture where we see a former icon come to terms with himself. Worth a look.

This smartly written, emotional rollercoaster masterpiece by Adam Rifkin showcases Burt Reynolds acting at his best. Burt's genuine vulnerability and charisma pops off the screen and into your heart. You cannot help but love the movie and Burt. It's incredible!

Adam Rifkin's 'The Last Movie Star' is a flick that will certainly pull a few tears out of you. It's one of Burt Reynolds' best roles and Ariel Winter held her own alongside a true legend. There are several moments when she truly shines in the flick. One of the best flicks of the year!
