Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Powerful

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The acting in this movie is really good.

If you love what's good in the world you'll love this film. No wonder it has picked up international editing awards. An intricate plot seamlessly crafted together. Loaded with novelty and intrigue in a smooth-flowing story. The audience was noticeably glued to the screen, The acid test of a good film and pretty rare these days.Great to discover the world with the well known adventure pioneers. AJ Hackett, George Greenough, Al Byrne. So amazing that this real footage was ever captured of their untold story.I felt uplifted and full of hope to see how childhood dreams can be manifested and the wilderness can be restored. Left the cinema buzzing.

If you want to inspire your kids in all aspects of life, this is the film. I've seen Last Paradise at the cinema three times, and have the DVD at home. My kids absolutely love it and keep watching it.This film is powerful and inspiring with subliminal messages. At one level, it's a humble and wonderfully woven story that takes us through the genesis and evolution of adventure sports. The 45 years of footage includes classic scenes from the very first pioneers, to breathtaking footage from today's very best. At a deeper level, I'm most inspired by the message that growing up with nature as your default playground, rather than a screen, helps kids and adults alike to find their boundaries, to manage risk, and appreciate the beauty and majesty of nature. "Tomorrow's protectors of the wilderness are the kids who play in it today". The rare original footage gives us the true picture of how different the world used to look and what has been lost forever and why. Last Paradise inspires us to make choices that give our kids the best chance of enjoying a world like we were privileged to grow up in.

Inspirational, beautiful, intriguing, genuine and modest. These are the words that spring to mind when I think of this outstanding documentary.Clive Neeson's story makes me want to explore more boldly, become more educated and contribute my time more generously to the world around. It also makes me feel damn lucky to live in New Zealand. Although not preachy, I can't help but feel inspired by the powerful environmental message that becomes self evident throughout the film.There is so much breadth and depth in this film's topics that I found myself inspired to pursue even more information about some of the characters, topics and inventions. Without question, Last Paradise is one of the most unique, original and entertaining documentaries of this genre that I have seen. It deserves a large global audience.

Quirky, humorous and very inspirational movie. I am a surfer and I don't usually bother watching surfing movies. Last Paradise is far more than just a surfing moving. Anyone who had an adventurous childhood which continued into their adult life would love this movie! The cinematography is brilliant.The old footage very interesting and the environmental message simple but moving. Last Paradise has already won several awards overseas including the "X Dance"and "California" Film Festivals. Quite an incredible feat for one man on a very limited budget. The best movie I have seen for a long time and I would recommend it anyone with a sense of adventure who cares about the future of our planet.
