The whole delivery room bit was a bit much..

They should have ended the film right after Rigs visited the grave-site but then you wouldn't have the "Why should we be friends" song for the end credits?

The final scene for the photo was nice, but apart from that the hospital scenes felt like it was descending into sitcom territory.

Agreed that was seriously over the top and not in a good way.

A lot of the humor was like that. The humor was pretty bad in this movie at times. I agree that scene was awkward as hell, but the photo at the end was nice.

I loved it. It was a lot of fun after loving the characters so much. Maybe it plays differently if you're not a super fan who watched the movies over and over again.

I know it's cheesy, but I loved it too, AND I am a super-fan who marathon watches the movies every now and then. I actually didn't like the 4th one when I saw it. Now I'm a bit older and have a different perspective on the film. For one thing, everyone who worked on the series looked like they were having a blast. I thought it was a great way to close out the films and show that the cast stayed together through 11 years of great movies.

The hospital scene was hilarious and I couldn't stop laughing, so I cannot help but to love it and give it points, but I see your perspective.

The delivery room scene was a perfect ending.

The delivery room scene was a perfect ending.

Agreed! Riggs's life has come full circle.

From being near suicidally lonely and depressed in the first movie, he now finds himself married with a baby and smack bang in the middle of a huge extended family that all care for him. I really liked the hospital ending and also loved the little speech Leo made to Riggs at his deceased wife's grave site, just before they went to hospital. Leo tells him how important his and the Murtaughs' friendship is to him, making Riggs think back to when he was in the same sort of zone in the first instalment.
