	Author	Review
United States	Inkoo Kang The Hollywood Reporter	"An excellent ensemble poignantly humanizes the last months of British rule over Yemen"	POS
United States	Steve Greene IndieWire	"[It] is both patient and powerful (...) 'The Last Post' succeeds in part because the women of the series are not merely accessories for their military counterparts."	POS
United Kingdom	Jasper Rees Telegraph	"A parade of heavy-handed ironies and odd implausibilities (...) As a production, 'The Last Post' feels undernourished (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Graeme Virtue The Guardian	"Soapy but gritty."	POS
United States	Melanie McFarland Salon	"Amazon’s imitative British period drama reveals little about history or humanity. So what’s the point? (...) A creative knock-off"	NEG
United States	Lorraine Ali Los Angeles Times	"'The Last Post' provides compelling human drama, especially in depicting life on the base. But it feels untethered from history, or perhaps context"	NEU
