“u0026quot;The Last Of The Finestu0026quot; didnu0026#39;t do a great deal of business when it was first release, possibly because the studio tried to market it as an action movie (it really isnu0026#39;t), and Dennehy, best known for playing heavies, possibly didnu0026#39;t fit audienceu0026#39;s idea of a hero. Actually, Dennehy is pretty good playing his atypical role, believable as a cop who is honest and tries to do the right thing. The supporting cast is also pretty good in their roles. But the central conflict, dealing with bad guys in high places trying to interfere with the conflicts in Central America, is pretty standard stuff. I think that if they had tried to make this more of an action-oriented movie, it would have played a lot better. Itu0026#39;s not a bad movie, just somewhat flat as it is. You will find it more entertaining if you watch it on commercial TV, however, because the ludicrous dubbing to remove the extensive foul language is unintentionally funny.”
