The film that follows is, admittedly, a bit of a mess. It’s also compelling, energetic, and well-acted, finding one of our most intriguing filmmakers all but flinging herself outside of her comfort zone.

There’s some overreach and muddle here — you wouldn’t want a pop quiz on the plot — but “Last Thing” remains an intriguing, visually diverting piece, well shot by Bobby Bukowski.

The Last Thing He Wanted is trying to be too many things at once. It goes off on several tangents that don’t ever conclude.

Nothing connects, nothing gels, and every thread is lost.

The Last Thing He Wanted is a thing that no one wanted.
