Long movie, but the moral is important.

Rating: 7/10 (13 December 2016)

I believe that Mike went back for Nick because he felt bad that he was left behind. Nick is confused on who he is and what his life will actually be. Initially in the film, nick enjoys life, but as time passes he changes. The scene later in the film where Nick and Mike forcibly play a game of Russian roulette is what mostly affects Nick psychologically, taking away his happiness. This traumatizing experience makes the case of Nick being a confused person that much more intense. I feel that Mike knows how he has changes and thinks seeing him might make him come home. But Nick is to far gone in his own darkness and can't be saved.
