Petro-chemist Andy Yeats knows how dependent the world is on oil. If something were to happen to the world's oil supply, it would set off a chain reaction: transportation would grind to a halt, supplies would cease to be delivered and law enforcement would be overwhelmed. While on a business trip to the Middle East, Andy realizes that his worst fears are coming true, and his family is separated at this crucial moment. His teenage daughter, Laura, is alone at home in London while his wife, Elena, and young son, Sam, are in Paris. Amid this chaos, each family member will sacrifice everything to find one another, despite the distance and the dangers that separate them.

Lauren Sarner New York Post 09/27/2022
It’s clearly got a lot of grand ideas, but they’re presented in a paint-by-numbers fashion. Go to Full Review
Daniel D'Addario Variety 09/08/2022
The series never finds its gear, existing as a ripped-from-future-headlines thriller that’s neither particularly credible nor especially thrilling. Go to Full Review
Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter 09/07/2022
A consistently inert environmental thriller that fails to deliver even the most minor thrills. Go to Full Review

5/10
The anticipated return of Matthew Fox to acting is a little underwhelming. Neither he nor Janne Froggatt can generate much excitement in this run of the mill action movie. Go to Full Review
Alex Maidy JoBlo's Movie Network 09/23/2022
5/10
From the generic techno-thriller music to the by-the-numbers plotting, Last Light is an underwhelming waste of time that fails to work as a limited series or the first season of a longer story. Go to Full Review
Joel Keller Decider 09/21/2022
It's got more than enough action and intrigue, a family that's trying to reunite during a worldwide crisis and Matthew Fox being his usual charming, gritty self (eventually). Go to Full Review

Bob S @RT51468262 02/05/2025 The movie was pretty good. The problem was the editing. Too many distracting errors. Again, better editing would have made this a better film See more Alan B @RT79384129 06/09/2024 No point trying to be clever about this review, the series was truly awful and predictable garbage. Started well, then fell off a cliff. See more Valerii Ege D @RT37895442 10/30/2023 I only watched Last Light because Matthew Fox turned back to the acting. It didn't matter if the show was good or bad. But let me tell you something, it was good. It's a very brave idea, with good acting and a logical storyline. And only 5 episodes. Just perfect. See more Ian G @RT82141454 06/06/2023 So much of this is not in English and has no English subtitles that it is literally a pointless exercise watching it unless I want to wast my life learning French or Arabic See more CT 8 @ct8787 03/24/2023 This was like watching a 5 episode climate change hoax infomercial. The only thing worse than the nonsensical storyline was the acting....hard to believe this project was greenlit in the first place. No doubt by people who fly the globe on private jets....next. See more John T @Thrash 09/30/2022 This show was very disappointing. It's an interesting topic, but it quickly evolved into a pseudo-science propaganda piece. It has terrible writing and zero character development. See more Read all reviews
