Last Breath review: incredible real story is a thrilling big-screen adventure

Finn Cole, Woody Harrelson and Simu Liu in Last Breath.

A true-story adventure to make you gasp, Last Breath recounts a tale of survival set in one of the most dangerous environments known to humankind, one that is every bit as inhospitable and perilous as those more obviously cinematic realms of outer space or the peaks of the Himalayas — 300 feet below the surface of the North Sea.

That's where deep-sea divers Chris Lemons, Duncan Allcock and Dave Yuasa ran into trouble in September 2012 while conducting what should have been a routine repair job on the sea bed off the coast of Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The ordeal that ensued has already been the subject of an acclaimed 2019 documentary (also titled Last Breath), co-directed by Richard da Costa and Alex Parkinson, and now Parkinson has turned the disaster into a gripping feature film starring Finn Cole, Woody Harrelson and Simu Liu.
