Spoiler alert!

Rating: 8/10 (23 October 2006)

The script and direction of this film are impeccable right up to the last ten minutes, when it falls apart and turns into a cartoon! The story works fine, through the Third-Man finale at the cemetery( Protagonist leaves graveside, walks out toward main entrance to cemetery, stops, leans up against the cemetery gateway; love interest (Madolyn, played by Vera Farmiga) walks from same graveside out toward main entrance, passes him, pays no attention to him, in spite of the fact that she's PG with his baby.), Then, suddenly, it becomes a Spy-Vs.-Spy cartoon, with A shooting B, then C shoots A, D shoots C, etc. What is this? After a great script, suddenly we run out of ideas? What was in the envelope?!
