I love this movie so much

So much average

Admirable film.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The idea for this movie is quite interesting. It could be an interesting science fiction movie set in post apocalyptic world . Unfortunately it's not. From what I've heard the movie makers had very small budget . So small that they struggled to finish this movie . A movie with low budget doesn't necessary has to suck . This one is bad. REALLY BAD.When you don't have money you can always impress the audience with other things : acting , dialogue , plot … "The Last patrol" is poor not only with production values. It's an action movie with no action ! The first fight happens here after 1 hour and 10 minutes ! That's right . Before Lundgren will hit and kick someone you will have to wait 1 hour and 10 minutes . The last 20 minutes of movie are "intense" – we have one shootout , 5 kicks , 7 punches and 1 explosion (not too impressive) . That's all you get after suffering 1 hour and 10 minutes of boredom. And some pseudo-intellectual dialogue about faith. Admit it – that's not the reason you watch action movie , especially with Dolph Lundgren.So what's happening before the " big climax" ? Nothing . We are introduced to characters we couldn't care less about . To be honest if it wasn't for Lundgren I would swear I was watching some idiotic comedy . I guess they wanted to make a drama about people trying to survive in a destroyed world . I don't understand why they filled the movie with characters that could easily appear in "Police academy" – the milkman , the dragged couple , the pseudo-Indian , the dumb blonde girl , the macho soldier . There is a big twist involving Lundgren's past – I don't understand what was so traumatic in it . Seriously . I laughed so hard when the movie revealed his big secret . I expected something dark and heartbreaking , while it was all about a … simple talk. One meeting with black woman and children changed his life so much he had nightmares . It feels odd at best.I have to point three dues ex machine plot solutions – one with the earthquake , second with the explosion and third with the rain. And the magical "saved from the death".I also have to point that the movie drags all the time . It's boring like HELL . There is no interesting dialogue or good acting. "The Last Patrol" is the definition of words : dull and lifeless. And stupid.I give it 1/10.

Start watching this movie on TV, I expected just another low-budget action film that would doubtfully be watched till its end. Eventually, i was enjoying so much to rate it with '9'. A bit strange deviation from its 3.1 IMDb average but....this is my opinion, isn't it :)Unlike other high-budget natural-disaster movies with heroic attempts of the main actor to save his child/wife, here there is a group of survivals with their daily attempts to survive. The grotesqueness of characters doesn't change the realness of situation. Grotesque as they are: an earthquake just happened - what will they do ? They behave like human beings under crisis - not like American heros with banally, expected and nonrealistic moves.Just think of "metamorphosis" of kafka: there, a man became an insect and it's still a classic story. Why ? because the unreal starting-point is forgotten when the reader follows the very-real behaviour of the character (of course, this is not the only reason "metamorphosis" is a classic one :) ).Back to The Last Patrol: a colorful set of people in a situation I'm really anxious about: you know, an earthquake can really be stronger than what we ever seen, then what will we do, isolated with some people in the less-expected location ?Various violent conflicts (e.g. the prisoners) and the weird plague add the "action" spice which makes this film more entertaining than just a drama.The bottom line: I've enjoyed this movie very much.

The Last Patrol was one of those movies I forced myself to sit through. On pretty much every level I was left disappointed. The plot, the characters, continuity and the ending.For some reason I had respect for Dolph but after a flick through his filmography I could only obviously recommend Universal Soldier. He was the only element of this production that offered any attraction but, while he went through the motions pretty well, he was surrounded on all sides by the mediocre and the ridiculous.I'm sure that some of the scenes could maybe have been reworked and the overall plot could maybe have been dragged into more respectable territory but the characters were, overall, poor. Those who were meant to be funny were just annoying and with the possible exception of McBride, there was a general lack of depth.I just don't understand how these movies make it to DVD - we're obviously not talking big budget here but where's the quality control guys?

This is garbage. The plot is terrible. We are supposed to believe that there is an Earthquake in California and all of the sudden a secret prision and a group of soldiers met by some stragglers are the last people on Earth? That the Earth's axis would shift? In the beginning we are told that the Earthquake occurred along the San Andreas fault in California. Than why does the ocean that separates Cali and the mainland start where Las Vegas used to be. No explanation is given for the mutated milk man and goats. The psychic religion teacher who can make rain and predict "big changes." Now for the ending. Anyone who saw it will understand how terrible it was. Our hero drives a car w/ a bomb strapped on the top onto a prison and jumps out 5 feet away from the explosion only to return at the end. Rent this movie only to help the economy.
