The story and dialog were slow and contrary in many aspects to the characters we have come to know. The acting was impeccable as it was throughout the series, but my family and I still did not find it to be a satisfying conclusion! :-(

Perhaps it's the prodigious amount of whiskey consumed, but I really liked this show. There was something gritty and real about the character portrayal - even when there were some fantastical plot lines. Ray Donovan: The Movie brought closure and explanation to the back story and a final exposition of threads from the series that had been left somewhat unresolved. And, these were wrapped up Donovan style - a mixture of pain and joy, with a thick vein of tragedy to wash it down. It wasn't easy, but it was satisfying. I was glad of the opportunity to have one last dip into this world. So a final doff of the cap to an amazing ensemble (and crew) that managed to bring this world to life with convincing honesty - it's been quite a ride! I don't usually like to single out actors from a tight ensemble, but upon reflection, in this case I feel compelled to. Two characters and their amazing actors provided a solid base for this series, their work anchoring the ensemble. Eddie Marsan as Terry, an extraordinary performance that must have been completely exhausting. And then there is John Voight as Mickey. For sure Voight had good material to work with, but Voight surely makes the point that great actors get better with age - what an absolute legend - loved him hated him, respected him, loathed him - he took us on the full heroes journey, fatal flaws and all. Edit: And one more thing. To their enduring credit, the writer's introduced the main themes that play out over the length of this show (all 7 seasons) in its opening episode, season 1 episode 1. Apart from the fact that that provides the actors with a solid grounding for their characters, that foresight and depth deserves recognition in its own right.

I basically watched the entire series and then the movie in a day and a half. It was done extremely well and the performances were excellent all the way to the end. What a dismal tale but there is some redemption I suppose but it left me despondent which I suppose is a natural reaction to such a bleak tale.

Sometimes I wonder if "reviewers" on here actually watch what they reviewed. So far I've seen tears about too many flashbacks when in reality the flashback scenes are maybe 10% of the movie. I've seen tears about it being too slow and boring, well did you actually watch the tv show?? And then of course the classic 1/10 worst movie ever crowd. Is this as good as early Ray Donovan? Absolutely not, those days were gone as soon as they killed Abby and got rid of Avi as well which ended up leading to the show dipping in quality but this is still a good ending to what was an entertaining show.

I loved the TV series...should have left it at that. The film is predicated on having seen the series. Yet the plot keeps jumping around between the present and distant past of Ray's youth, you have trouble dealing with a thin plot punctuated by a few absurd violent scenes. In the end you wonder what you just watched.

Was basically like a last episode to the series. If you have never watched the series or it's been a long time you'll be lost. Maybe spoilers They focused to much on him wanting to kill Mickey( well Shreiber produced it). I knew immediately what had happened even tho Ray wanted to kill Mickey his whole life he never did. For as long as the movie was I checked how much time was like and there was 8 minutes and I felt like idk there should have been like an hour more. As a stand alone movie it doesn't work but as a last episode in the series kind of..Edit to add Spoilers.. I didn't know this was a continuation of the finale. Tho for me the best part was when Ray is thrown off the car and Mickey runs to him and he tries to shoot him and ran out of ammo and Mickeys sigh was the best part for me of it all.

While the show would have definitely benefited from a last season, the movie does a very decent job of closing out the story for the characters as they were at the end of Season 7. However, the movie cannot stand on it's own. It relies on the setup of 7 seasons of story and character progression. Watching this from an "outsiders" perspective is not recommended. If you are a fan of the series, this should be a nice sendoff that stays true to the major cast of characters, while still leaving on a fairly open note. Fully recommended for series veterans. The movie does not waste any time with filler and feels like a multi-part finale condensed into just over two episodes of length.
