Death of Salesman 2 February 10, 2009
Lee Armstrong (Winterville, NC United States)
"The Last Time" kept my interest. The sales lingo and stiff competition formed a good foundation for the film where getting ahead vies with truthfulness. Michael Keaton who was in "First Daughter" and played Batman for Tim Burton years ago does a good job as the cutthroat Ted who does anything to make the sale. Keaton develops the character well as we eventually see his vulnerability. Brendan Fraser who was in The Air I Breathe which was not so great and the Oscar-winning Crash (Widescreen Edition) plays Jamie, a naive salesman from Ohio trying to adjust to New York. One of the deleted scenes showing Fraser in leather with a girl in the bathroom was thankfully not in the final cut. Fraser does a good job showing the downhill emotional trajectory of the character. Amber Valetta from Transporter 2 plays Jamie's girlfriend Belisa. The scene with her being unfaithful with Ted as Jamie lies unconscious next to them in the bed is jarring. Billy Slaughter turns in a nice cameo performance as the frisky intern who gets beat up in the parking lot. Neal McDonough turns his blue eyes loose as Hurly whose bravado exceeds his accomplishment. Michael Lerner was a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nominee for "Barton Fink" in 1991. He turns in a nice cameo performance as the sales guru Leguzza who has a penchant for Korean boys. Michael Caleo who directed an episode of "The Sopranos" helms the project and keeps it unpredictable into the home stretch. Perhaps we might call this "Death of Salesman 2." Enjoy!

gd plot, kind of well written screenplay, could have been more interesting. shooting could have been much more interesting too. story tells how the business world would have gone all the ways to take their enemies down. even sending staffs over to the other company as someone else...very interesting indeed, just not shot 1 st class.
 Great movie January 25, 2008

Wonderful performance by Keaton. I agree that you may think the movie is a little corny until you get to the end, and then it all makes sense. It's all for a reason.
Part humor, part romance... September 30, 2007

This is a comedy that turns serious as a bitter salesman realizes he can still fall in love, and not with money. The problem is, he doesn't realized he's being duped and his company is being taken down...one salesman at a time by a bigwig that likes to thin out heavy competition. Will everyone open their eyes in time? I would've liked a different ending, but it was a good watch.

What a cheesy movie. Made no sense and I got so tired of Brendan Fraser over acting. Sorry guys. Wish it could have been better.
