Editorial Review:
Lovers. Outlaws. A man and a woman running from their pasts are trapped on a collision course with the future in this explosive, erotic love story set against the breathtaking backdrop of the West. Mickey Rourke (Wild Orchid, Angel Heart), stars as Frank T. Wells, a newly-released ex-con looking for a few acres of freedom on the rodeo circuit. Lori Singer (Short Cuts, VR.5), is Scarlett Stuart, a wild - and wildly beautiful - woman on the run from a bank robbery gone desperately wrong. Together they will explore their own personal vision of the American Dream - and a boundless passion reeling out-of-control. But when the past threatens to catch up with them in the form of an old rodeo buddy turned Montana sheriff (Brion James, The Player, Silverado), the stage is set for a shattering climax that will change all of their lives forever. Mickey Rourke, Lori Singer
The Last Ride Reviews:
Good Flick. 
2005-03-15 - This is one of Rourkes lesser known movies that went straight to video, but dont let that fool you, as this is another great leading performance by Rourke. Micky does his job as an actor breathing life into his charater, and bringing the movie alive in a way that lesser actors would fail. The actress who plays his love interest does a fine job as well. Where the movie falls short is in the paint-by-numbers Hollywood type story line, and a terrible performance by an actor who plays the crazy redneck brother of Rourkes love interest, who plays the stupid, inbred, trailer park, white trash, bad guy the same way we've seen this type of character played a thousand different times in other movies... only worse. Thankfully, he is only in a few scenes. All in all, this is a well-acted, solid good little film.
A GOOD FILM
2005-02-23 - I like this film alot. The combination of the legendary Mickey Rourke and the all time favourite Lori Singer was well cast, I thought. I really enjoy this film. Frank T.Wells and Scarlett, are intreresting characters, you want them to stick together and end up well.
Great, Disturbing Film 
1999-09-06 - This is a great, disturbing film about a former convict/rodeo rider (Mickey Rourke) who falls in love with a beautiful, emotionally disturbed young woman (Lori Singer) who, because she can't shake her life of crime, brings down the man who loves her. Very downbeat film with some great moments
