The Last Stand
Ray Owens is sheriff of the quiet US border town of Sommerton Junction after leaving the LAPD following a bungled operation. Following his escape from the FBI, a notorious drug baron, his gang, and a hostage are heading toward Sommerton Junction where the police are preparing to make a last stand to intercept them before they cross the border. Owens is reluctant to become involved but ultimately joins in with the law enforcement efforts.
Critics Sentiment
Epic gunfight with Burrell's mercenaries on Sommerton's main road
Owens and deputies discover murdered farmer Parsons at his farm
The film jumps dramatically from slow character development to the acclaimed Main Street shootout, rising nearly 3 points as the action finally delivers on its promises.
The Last Stand starts slowly with questionable plot contrivances that frustrated some viewers, but builds to a widely praised Main Street shootout that serves as the film's clear highlight. While Arnold's return to action was welcomed by fans, the film's uneven pacing and formulaic elements kept it from achieving consistent excellence, settling into solid but unremarkable action territory.
