4:44 Last Day on Earth Reviews
USA Today
Scott Bowles
Ferrara doesn't give his protagonists room to do much beyond have arguments and sex (though the intimacy is shot well).
Los Angeles Times
Mark Olsen
Ferrara movingly celebrates connection, cooking life down to just its barest essence: a man, a woman and a need.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Ferrara's thin idea for a movie - life goes on, even when it's about to stop - would have been a lot better had he given his characters more to do.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Your last day - or, as it happens, the whole planet's last day - will be just like every other one. Mr. Ferrara makes this point with ingenuity and characteristic thrift by using found news footage to provide images of apocalypse.
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
Though it gains traction toward the end, viewers may finally feel puzzled or indifferent. You expect a bit more from the end of the world.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Dafoe, with his angular, ever-watchable Edvard Munch features, plays well off the impish Leigh, but sadly, they have little to do besides a "Last Tango at Armageddon" riff, albeit with a genuinely moving finale.
AV Club
Sam Adams
The mechanics of the pending cataclysm don't interest Ferrera so much as the emotional stakes: How do people act when there's no future left?
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
If the end of the world was just hours away, would New Yorkers still be able to get takeout? Yes, if Abel Ferrara's mind-bending "4:44 Last Day on Earth'' is any indication.
MSN Movies
Glenn Kenny
This is pretty standard not-with-a-bang-but-with-a-whimper-punctuated-by-an-occasional-blowup stuff.
Movieline
Stephanie Zacharek
Watching the excessively craggy Dafoe and the excessively nubile Leigh roll around on their pre-Apocalyptic mattress was certainly good for a giggle.
NPR
Scott Tobias
Rehashing old arguments in the hours before certain death is a tedious waste of time - theirs, and ours.
Village Voice
Karina Longworth
It's both chamber drama and experimental found-footage film, relying heavily on appropriated media to provide context and subtext to its disaster fiction.
Slant Magazine
Jaime N. Christley
It's only natural that Abel Ferrara's vision of the end of the world should take corporeal form as a quasi-autobiographical hangout movie.
rec.arts.movies.reviews
Louis Proyect
Well, it's better than "Melancholia" but strictly for Abel Ferrara fans like me.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A dreary and unappealing film about a couple of messed-up New Yorkers and what they choose to do just before the end of the world.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
I can't say it's my favorite Ferrara, and it's extremely downbeat, but it's also amazingly effective for such a low-budget, maverick effort.
CinemaDope
Glenn Lovell
... the last thing we'd expect from the aging enfant terrible behind Bad Lieutenant and King of New York ... comes off as a somber testimonial/warning commissioned by a think tank overseen by Al Gore ...
Film Journal International
Frank Lovece
The ever-original Abel Ferrara offers a stunningly believable final day among New Yorkers waiting, like the rest of the world, for the final hour of planet Earth.

Brian Orndorf
Uncompromising in its hallucinatory qualities and densely symbolic, 4:44 is a difficult sit, better appreciated for its appealing thespian swings than any of its intended meaning.
