ColeSmithey.comJodie Comer single-handedly carries "The Last Duel," while her co-actors (Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, and Adam Driver) flail.

Director Ridley Scott clearly prioritized his recent creative energies in favor of "The House of Gucci." 

Wise decision.

Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, and Adam Driver give such pathetic performances here that they should return to acting classes for a year or three.

Never mind that Damon and Affleck co-wrote this film's "Rashomon"-styled script with Nicole Holofcener. 

What a waste.

Rated R. 153 mins.
