The Last Vermeer Ratings & Reviews
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
By far the most enjoyable aspect of the film is Pearce's overripe performances as van Meegeren, with an assist from Olivia Grant, acidly sensual as the painter's model/mistress.
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
An entertaining if uneven mixture of post-World War II fact and fiction.
Niagara Gazette
Michael Calleri
[Claes] Bang and a realistic supporting cast are very good, but it's Guy Pearce as van Meegeren that you really want to see.
Orlando Weekly
Cameron Meier
The film's triumph is not its reintroduction of van Meegeren to the world, though that is commendable. Instead, it's the conversation it fosters about art itself.
The Patriot Ledger
Al Alexander
A film that more than paints in broad strokes in capturing a moment in Dutch history in which an artful dodger successfully bet it all in going for Baroque.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It plays as if it was a conventional mystery picture.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
The Last Vermeer is not an essential movie about post-World War II Europe, but for art aficionados, it's worth checking out for a dramatic retelling of a very intriguing real-life art mystery. [Guy] Pearce's performance ... is really the standout.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Claudia Puig
It's an inherently fascinating and wild true story, [but] I just thought this was occasionally dull.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Peter Rainer
It's an interesting subject for a movie, [but] I'm not sure it quite comes to life.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Amy Nicholson
[There] is a compelling framework for this story, but it's done in such strange, large strokes.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Thelma Adams
The handsome period thriller would have benefitted from a zippier pace, and Bang is stiff and square. But Pearce's complicated, flamboyant historical figure is total best actor Oscar bait.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
It's a clever gesture, but also points out what's ultimately wrong with director Dan Friedkin's postwar thriller: It knows a lot about art history and presumes we know nothing.
RogerEbert.com
Nell Minow
The film takes some significant, unnecessary, and distracting dramatic license.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
Sadly, The Last Vermeer doesn't have time to tackle this question with the depth it demands.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
The film moves from detective story to courtroom drama with nicely sketched character studies as a bonus...
Arizona Republic
Shaena Montanari
Pearce is captivating as van Meegeren, with his permanently surprised eyebrows that resemble Dalí's mustache and his freewheeling life that included a fair amount of sex and drugs.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
"Vermeer" chews on some decent food for thought: most notably the idea of moral ambiguity and the compromises one sometimes makes in wartime to survive.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
Dreadfully milquetoast
Variety
Peter Debruge
This once notorious, now nearly forgotten story easily captures and holds our interest, and Friedkin's smooth and unostentatious direction never gets in the way of the material.
The Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
An uneven but enjoyable historical drama with a standout turn from Guy Pearce.
