Last Round is the sequel to the 2015 film Ventoux. This sequel is directed and partly written by Boris Paval Conen, director of The Crisis Caravan and Kamp Holland.
Three childhood friends, who are still friends with each other after many years, decide to help with the renovation of another friend in Belgium. During this renovation, the friends only learn that they are no longer as young and strong as they used to be. They learn this in comical, clumsy ways, but despite the mutual struggle involved, they learn that their good mutual history and humor can keep them together as friends.
For this sequel, almost ten years later, it is nice to see almost all the same actors in the same roles. This is how it remains for most familiar faces to see again. It may help to watch the film Ventoux again to refresh your memory, because after almost ten years, most of the characters and events from this film may have been forgotten.
In addition to some comic moments where older friends try to carry out renovations themselves, the film also plays well on the negatives of growing older. Most people have less strength or endurance as they get older. Furthermore, they have often become more vulnerable or fragile. Despite these more negative drama aspects, the film also shows how strong years of mutual friendship can be and how this can provide strength and positivity.
The fact that most of Ventoux's cast members have returned for this sequel, almost ten years later, helps to see almost all the same characters again. Most of them still have good chemistry and come across as believable as old friends of each other.
