Matt Damon, Adam Driver and Jodie Comer star in Ridley Scott's return to historical epic form, written by Damon, Ben Affleck and Nicole Holofcener.

A willingness to subvert expectations is one reason this ungainly, ingenious and altogether fascinating collaboration works as well as it does.

No tonsorial slouch himself is their overlord, Count Pierre d’Alençon, a saucy libertine who makes no secret of his preference for Le Gris over Carrouges. As the lowly squire begins to rise above the noble-born knight, their once-close friendship, forged years earlier in the thick of battle, swiftly disintegrates. Land and title disputes follow, as do some halfhearted attempts at reconciliation.

There’s an obvious measure of calculation in that depiction; in retooling its medieval times for a #MeToo-era audience, “The Last Duel” is eager to present an unambiguous, morally uncomplicated view of what does and doesn’t constitute consent.
