Not bad but of course the ending ruined it

Rating: 4/10 (22 November 2017)

The ending, the ending...it's always the ending that gives modern movie makers such a hard time. Why is it so hard to have things turn out good in the end? Why not let the good guys win? Is that so hard? But the trendy way to end movies now (and for the last decade or two) is to make you think everything worked out fine, and then right at the end they "surprise" you with some weird twist. Well of course we expect it now. We know movie makers today are not even close to being as good as their predecessors. We know full well they will all do it. We hate it, but that's how it is.
I can picture them rubbing their evil hands together thinking, "Ooooh, this will surprise them. Surely they won't see this coming." Well that's because movie makers (directors, writers, etc) are stupid. That's the only conclusion I can come up with. If they want to surprise us, give us a good ending. If they want to surprise us, don't make us leave the theatre grumbling about it. That leaves a bad taste in our mouths, and we come here and write crappy reviews. Get it? No, they don't get it. They never will.
