Brandon Yu New York Times Aug 27, 2026
Most of the beats that play out the rest of the way are predictable. But this movie, directed by Carlson Young and based on the novel from Anna Todd, isn’t one you come to for originality Go to Full Review

1/5
The latest offering in Amazon’s endless catalogue of “romance content”. I wouldn’t ordinarily use that term to describe a film, but it fits The Last Sunrise (indifferently directed by Carlson Young) like a glove. Go to Full Review

The film probably would’ve been far more effective if it had committed to that darkness instead of settling for a fairly predictable YA package adorned with a nice backdrop and an abundance of beachwear. Go to Full Review

Despite some script inconsistencies, like why a character who grew up in Mallorca speaks little to no Spanish, the film tries to understand the local point of view (anti-tourist, enjoy life attitudes). And Mallorca simply glimmers. Go to Full Review

Mystax Kriston S @RT73010427 3 days ago I don’t usually write movie reviews, but after finishing The Last Sunrise, I just had to put my thoughts down. I'm a simple guy who likes high stakes and a gripping story, and this film absolutely delivered on every level. The story follows Ry (Maia Reficco), a girl fighting severe epilepsy who goes to Mallorca with her mother (Eva Longoria) to truly live life rather than play the victim. The real grit comes in when she connects with Julián (Fernando Lindez), a local fisherman dealing with his own heavy battles as corporate developers try to crush his family's livelihood. Director Carlson Young beautifully balances the aggressive, stunning landscapes with raw, honest tension that hooks you from start to finish. If you want a powerful survival story about standing your ground, do yourself a favor and stream this right now on Amazon Prime Video—it easily earns my first-ever five-star rating. See more Deborah F @RT04341935 Sep 14, 2026 Such a waste of time See more Diego M @RT30234600 Sep 13, 2026 A tedious, excessively long and remarkably predictable film that sets out to offer a critical portrait of the problems currently facing Mallorca, but ultimately sinks beneath a repetitive script and an excessive succession of sex scenes that occupy much of the runtime without adding much to the story. To make matters worse, the performances of the two leads are frankly poor, and their supposedly romantic relationship lacks both chemistry and credibility. An ambitious but ultimately hollow attempt that mistakes provocation for depth and length for substance. See more SurvivorAlways 7 @MyLife4Me79 Sep 12, 2026 What matters most making and keeping memories or simply living longer? What is the memory of auntie worth? The romance and the emotion. It’s not going to win an Oscar but it doesn’t need to. It’s entertaining, romantic, heart warming and emotional. I really liked it See more Chickoo P @RT65100302 Sep 9, 2026 Just a Routine kind of film with a bit of romance, doesn't feel anything, poor story, bland narration, just a one-time watchable with a few skips. See more Steven C. @st3ven_650 Sep 9, 2026 It's a solide 6/10 at most in my opinion. The story its quite more interesting then other rom-cons i seen. But its the way the story moves is okay. The characters are alright at most. Broo the Julian looks like Masan Thame lol and the girl is okay but I do like her twist of how she's dying and shiiii and the end is wholesome of course like almost every rom-con but it's kinda slow ish boring at times and somtimes they kinda overreacting some scenes but either then that I'm not watching this movke ever again 😭🤞🏽 See more Read all reviews
