| ColeSmithey.comCole Smithey[VIDEO] Abel Ferrara peaked a long time ago, but his unique cinematic take on Manhattan is always a welcome distraction. |
| AV ClubSam AdamsThe mechanics of the pending cataclysm don't interest Ferrera so much as the emotional stakes: How do people act when there's no future left? |
| Film Journal InternationalFrank LoveceThe ever-original Abel Ferrara offers a stunningly believable final day among New Yorkers waiting, like the rest of the world, for the final hour of planet Earth. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoIf the end of the world was just hours away, would New Yorkers still be able to get takeout? Yes, if Abel Ferrara's mind-bending "4:44 Last Day on Earth'' is any indication. |
| Projection BoothRob HumanickIntermittently captures the sense of human desperation it strives for, as if to say the best we can hope for is to crawl past the finish line. |
