Reception
[edit]Nazamel Tabares of Pelikula Mania gave the film a 4 out of 5 rating and wrote; The challenge in making a film that is set within 24 hours is to keep the audience engaged from start to finish through just the conversations, and that’s what Nuel Naval’s ‘The Last Beergin’ did. Having a good script and great actors, it was probably easy for Nuval to direct the film.[10]
Mell T. Navarro of Tempo gave the film a positive feedback and wrote (translated in English); We're not just laughed, we also cried in the other scenes, skillfully performed by the ensemble cast.[11]
