Oscar® winner Michel Hazanavicius' remake of Shin'ichirô Ueda's cult hit One Cut of the Dead follows a director (Romain Duris, L'Auberge Espagnole) charged with making a live, single-take, low-budget zombie flick in which the cast and crew, one by one, actually turn into zombies. Featuring hysterically unhinged performances from Oscar® nominee Bérénice Bejo (The Artist), Matilda Lutz (Revenge), and Finnegan Oldfield (Corsage), Final Cut is a sly love letter to the art of filmmaking and a blood-soaked, hilarious genre farce with a meta-to-the-max premise.

Critics Consensus

Although it'll be more satisfying to viewers who haven't already seen the original, Final Cut offers playfully entertaining meta commentary on the art of the remake.

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]

It's very short, socially conscious and all about the movie industry.

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.

6/10

At its best, the film’s willingness to acknowledge the challenges of remaking a beloved original empowers its strongest moments. At its worst, these choices only highlight the ways in which the film pales when compared to its predecessor.

3/5

It’s fun but isn’t fresh in the slightest, which feels like a missed opportunity... If you want an innovative, meta zombie comedy that celebrates filmmaking, you should probably check out One Cut of the Dead.

If you've never seen the original, Final Cut offers up all the same bonkers twists, surprisingly multilayered performances and eruptions of myriad bodily fluids.
