Audience Reviews

Ace W Whoever canceled this show should get the death penalty, and whoever took season one off of Hulu should have their hands cut off. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review Jake S More than one man in a show called "The Last Man" diverged significantly from the source material with this change. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/11/23 Full Review Tarek A First off the comic book is a masterpiece worth reading end to end, and this series attempts an homage to the spirit of the original work.The overall scenario and premise are pretty shocking but not unimagined or uncalled for by some members of society today. In summary, how would a world without men function? This is a relevant question given the gender-based introspection and analysis that most communities undertake nowadays. The production values are adequate for a post-apocalyptic thriller, with the requisite gore and devastation elements. What is more interesting is the psychological and mental state of the survivors as they navigate a new reality. Y himself, the titular character, is present as a man who did not ask to be last, hence most apparently valuable or precious. It would make sense they would choose a bland uninspiring weak individual to take this role, instead of an uber-ambitious alpha. It's interesting that in a world devoid of men civilization collapses and the rule of the strong takes over almost instantly, with the weak preyed upon like lambs. It's almost as though gender wasn't the root cause. Of course, every opportunity is taken to start cults of personalities, with the rank hypocrisy of evicting to death those who do not agree with the demagogue's worldview. Perhaps the biggest plot hole would be that the patriarchy offed itself in a giant government conspiracy. You can't make this nonsense up. I can understand why the series was rejected and cancelled. Towards the end, the descent into tribal feral animalistic tendencies of the surviving women was quite disappointing and at times revolting. There was no message of peace and hope. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/31/23 Full Review Don J Terribly disappointing. Needed a real man not this pathetic excuse for one. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review Nash H I absolutely loved this show it was awesome too bad everything get cancelled these days Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review David F A lot of people complained that this series depicts women as inferior, and unable to run the world by themselves. I wish those folks would just take the following into consideration:If half the world died, the other half would be in chaos…. No matter WHAT SEX THEY ARE! Human beings are imperfect, emotional, and fallible. This series is not being sexist…. they are just being realistic. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
