I am very partial to Afrikaans Films, in spite of the fact some of them are very poorly made. Now, this film 'Die Laaste Tango' has a most ingenious story line and there are some wonderful moments in this film, especially the description of the Tango Dance and its relationship to love and passion, that was both beautifully acted and directed. In fact the part of the film that takes place in Loxton deserves a rating of 8/10.
However, the part of the film regarding the serial killer, his lawyer and his escape from the hospital lets the whole film down as it was poorly constructed and acted, the complete reverse of what is happening in Loxton.
It is therefore a film of two parts, one excellent and one very poor, but i would recommend a viewing just for the 'Die Laaste Tango'.
