- This romantic war drama -- Sean Penn 's fifth feature film as director -- is an all-around dud. It's poorly shot and edited, crushingly heavy-handed, woefully misguided, and, to top it off, miserably long. Penn is talented, but with The Last Face he seems to have let his humanitarian beliefs get in the way of his artistic instincts.
