What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This is a must-view for anyone who is a fan of Dispatch. Phenomenal.... It documents the last days of the band, but gives the history of how they rose through the rough to become one of the most successful independent music acts, all without the help of recording companies, advertisers, or anything. It was all done through word-of-mouth. Even their last concert on 07-31-2004, which attracted 110,000+ fans, had no form of advertising whatsoever. Even on the venue's schedule for the day it said "TBA".However, it is also an inspiring piece of work for anyone and everyone who ever had dreams but they didn't think they could do it on their own. This movie makes it clear: you CAN do it on your own, whether it be something in the music/movie/entertainment industry, or a entrepreneurial/business pursuit of any kind. No one needs the backing of a huge recording company or financial investors. If you have the dream, you can make it come true.

As a musician and former independent band member, this movie is a celebration of the commitment, hard work, passion and luck that it takes to pull a band together and make a difference. Combining personalities, musical talent, unique perspectives and individual aspirations; the band Dispatch accomplished what only other indy bands dream about... independent success in a "sell out" music industry.From the "behind the scenes" beginning to the amazing turnout of the bands "Last Dispatch", this movie wins the hearts of die hard fans as well as newcomers alike. In the end, you are only left with one question, "Why does this have to be the Last Dispatch?"If you are a fan of independent music and film production, this is a must-see.

I saw a prescreening of Last Dispatch and I really love this movie. For those of you that are not familiar with the band, this movie tells the story of Dispatch as they prepare to play their final concert after a 2 year hiatus. The film shows the 12 days leading up to the concert and tells how the band was started, why they are done, and how they became a successful band without ever signing to a major label. Dispatch is truly a band that did things their own way. They never listened to those people that told them they could not succeed in the music industry without the backing of a major label. On July 31st, 2004 they proved the industry wrong when 110,000 people showed up to Boston to say goodbye to the band they all loved. It is a story about following your dreams and always believing in yourself. I strongly recommend this movie to anyone who has ever heard the band as well as those who just love music. Everyone can appreciate what these guys did and the message that they delivered to 110,000 people last July.

I saw this movie at the pre-screening at Plymouth State University on April 22, 2005 and, trust me, it's very excellent. The film focuses on the reunion of the members of Dispatch in preparation for their final concert, "The Last Dispatch", on July 31st, 2004 in Boston, MA. You don't have to be a fan of the band to be captivated by the great story of three musicians who managed to rise out of the crowd with sheer talent and commitment, cementing their place in music history without ever signing with a record label. The film has the perfect mix of humor and drama as the band members' unique interests clash and the tension mounts before the final show. The film is particularly enjoyable to any of the 110,000 fans who attended the amazing final show, but I also highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates music, Dispatch or otherwise.
