Final Cut Ratings & Reviews
Kevin Ward
July 2, 2025
Very strange experience watching this. For full context I watched the original One Cut of the Dead, but had turned it off before one of the first major plot turns, IYKYK. I only decided to give it another shot when I started reading everyone’s rave reviews about it and realizing that I had clearly turned it off before a significant event. I ended up loving that film. Now, as I was watching this remake, I again found myself not enjoying it. It felt sooo similar to One Cut of the Dead that it pretty much felt like a shot for shot remake….which always feels very hollow, in my opinion. The only thing that felt different was that everyone was speaking French instead of Japanese, yet all the characters still had Japanese sounding names and the location seemed to be Japan as well. Then the two plot turns happen and even though it still remains very faithful to the original, some of these elements I had issues with, fall again perfectly into place with the story. (I’m being intentionally vague, sorry). I found myself once again really coming around to liking the film. Extended one shots are always impressive to me, and that’s no different here, but these films (this and the original) seem to always leave me with a feeling of pure love of the filmmaking process. I prefer the original, but I would actually recommend watching both (original first, though).

In the end, even though it may seem unbelievable, the film takes a humanistic and affectionate turn which radically contrasts with the start of the film, and that additionally, connects to The Artist. [Full review in Spanish]

I loved Shin'ichirô Ueda's One Cut of the Dead and put it on my top 10 list for 2018. And while I enjoyed the remake, it will not be making this year's 10 best.
Elements of Madness
Douglas Davidson
There's an intentionality and specificity within each frame that serves to both honor the source material and satirize an industry that perpetually mines itself for "new ideas."
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
This is a very faithful adaptation that retains the affable spirit of a movie relying on a heavy metatextual element to deliver a unique story about the undead.

I would recommend people watch it and skip the first 34 minutes.
LA Weekly/Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
It's never much more than a love letter to crap-making, the film reserves its modest beating heart for the strange and exultant camaraderie crew members feel on the set of even the crummiest project, a forged-by-fire feeling that can mystify non-crew.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Tim Cogshell
It's very short, socially conscious and all about the movie industry.
Assignment X
Abbie Bernstein
A film that becomes increasingly enjoyable as it proceeds.
Third Coast Review
Steven Prokopy
Hazanavicius embraces the mess and the art form, and everyone is clearly having the time of their lives making this thing.
Spectrum Culture
Josh Goller
The most satisfying way to watch this zombie-themed comedy horror likely would be to go in without any foreknowledge.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
It's a fast, not as cheap, and much better than decent cover version of another song, one that knows very well that it's a cover version.
Los Angeles Times
Amy Nicholson
This trashy, goofy, giddy, sloppy gore-fest isn't so different from "The Artist" after all. They both endear us to the behind-the-scenes struggles of, well, the artist, or in this case, these floundering and far-less-talented artistes.
RogerEbert.com
Simon Abrams
The dead air and pregnant pauses now feel heavier, and while that's sometimes amusing, "Final Cut" also rarely seems as playful or ingratiating as "One Cut of the Dead."
New York Times
Beatrice Loayza
If you're going to remake a film whose footprint is still fresh, you better make it your own if not significantly better.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
Like the original, it's heart is in the right place, and that may well be enough for this smart remake.
Slant Magazine
Keith Watson
Unlike One Cut of the Dead, Michel Hazanavicius's similar ode to low-budget resourcefulness often rings false.
TheWrap
Steve Pond
In its own particular and seriously deranged way, "Final Cut" is as much a valentine to the act of filmmaking as Hazanavicius' Oscar-winning film "The Artist" was when it debuted in Cannes back in 2011.
The Hollywood Reporter
Jordan Mintzer
For gore hounds and movie lovers, the cheap thrill of Final Cut is in seeing how the sausage, blood, brains and lopped-off limbs of horror pics are made, then realizing you can still be both scared and grossed-out.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
If you make a good movie to celebrate bad movies, you get Ed Wood. If you make a bad movie to celebrate bad movies, you just get more bad movies. And this is definitely one of them.
