The Last Movie Critic (2026)

The Last Movie Critic offers a documentary look at Roger Ebert—not merely as a reviewer, but as the enduring symbol he grew into. By weaving together the perspectives of directors he supported and the powerful writings he left behind, the film examines how one person’s profound, lifelong passion for film became a treasure for every audience member who has ever found meaning in the shadows of a theater. It’s a tribute to cinema, to compassion, and to the idea that the stories we share on screen can deepen our humanity.
