Great all the way up until the Hollywood schmaltz at the end

Great fun. Lots of silly bits and plenty of "but he wouldn't have been able to..." and "but they would have..". None of which matter.
But why of why didn't they end it with Neeson and his daughter hugging, sobbing in the master bedroom of the boat. Your heart's beating, adrenaline pumping, even getting into the silly emotion... then... of course, they give you the happy airport reunion... even step dad saying "anything you need"... and oh god, they EVEN go and give you the... "let's see what you got"... just takes away so much from what they've built up over 1.5 hours.... bloody studio crap...
