If you read any further in this thread, the movie will be ruined for you. If you haven’t seen it, don’t do it.
I thought that the ending was the worst part of the movie as well. More than the overall tone of it, I thought that little “oh, I got shot back there” Was terribly contrived. In a movie that was, in every other sense, totally inspired, this scene was hella trite.
Anyone else have comments about specific plot issues/awesome points?[/quote]
Hmmm, my only issues:
The Ending: although the sounds of childrens voices give hint to the idea that reproduction was successful, it was a little bit hazier than I would’ve liked.
Also, as Jedidiah said, the “It’s my blood, they got me back there” scene of the death of the main character seemed a bit rushed.
I also think the death of the terrorist character with the dreadlocks could have been a bit more dramatic, considering how big an impact he had on the movie.
A little elaboration into why the government was doing bombings in the city to “instill fear”, as claimed by the terrorist group.
All this said, however, one of the best parts of the movie was the fact that it wasn’t a this-is-how-it-is plot, and it left you to make up your own thoughts about why things are happening/what’s going to happen.
Still one of the best movies I’ve seen in the past year, and I see a ton.
