Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times Just as pure fan service, it’s a welcome return. If you liked “Monk” you’ll obviously want to watch it — and if you’ve never seen “Monk,” you should watch “Monk.” Jan 3, 2024 Full Review Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Aaron Pruner TheWrap Two decades later, we can all relate a bit to Adrian Monk. He may even be the perfect sleuth for the post-pandemic jungle we’re living in. Is this case truly his last? One can only hope the answer is, “No.” Dec 12, 2023 Full Review Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Brian Lowry CNN.com While the title states (or at least implies) this is Monk’s goodbye, given how seamlessly Shalhoub and company slide back into it, Peacock might be well advised to keep a few extra gallons of hand sanitizer in reserve. Dec 8, 2023 Full Review Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Nelson Acosta Koimoi In what amounts to a TV Special, Monk’s Last Case gives the audience a good dosage of nostalgia by bringing the entire gang back one more time. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media Ultimately, the sequel manages to deliver a strong message of hope, and those who enjoy the original series will find it entertaining (if not as upbeat). Jan 10, 2024 Full Review Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Derek Sante KSNV (Las Vegas) A fun TV film, but the darker tone definitely rubs some people the wrong way.

Joshua B Very unbelievable, monk is all around a bad person who gets personified as a hero. Cast does a great job but some of the worst writing I've ever seen Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Avindu G Tales of Adrian Monk brings back memories of good old days and it's like nothing has changed ever since. It's same old funny little things monk does with the supporting cast returning to the scene as well. Considering this movie one would think why wasn't this done before but the timing was perfect to light up Monk for at least once more with his unique character. Great work by the cast, especially by Shalhoub never missing a beat of Monk's persona. Visual effects were a reminiscent of the tv series. Great background music. Despite the title many viewers might want to see Monk working on those cold cases for sure. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Yuming J The killer waited at the bridge and told Molly that it’s 6 feet longer!? Give me a break. Is this made for kindergarten audiences? Also, why would Eden even tell the guy what’s wrong with the tape? He’s just there to switch the tapes. Unbelievable this is RT rated 96%. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/19/24 Full Review JUGRNOT R Monk is one of my favorites. The movie was fine but I'm still giving it 5 stars because of how glad i was to see then make a new chapter for us. The comedy wasn't there but it's understandable. Thanks for giving us some more Monk! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review Lae i I loved Monk and this movie is so good in every way and every emotion. I wish I knew about it when it came out. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/09/24 Full Review Renée d I always loved Monk. I was so sad when the show ended it's 8 year run. But, to see it back 15 years later, written by the shows creator, and with the best ending I could ever hope for. Love you, Mr. Monk, and you love Tony Shalhoub. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/11/24 Full Review Read all reviews
