Don't yell at me, but I thought the movies ending was going to be predictable in the way that Iris wins and her brother gets the transplant. Honestly, did you really think he was just going to kill himself? My mind was blown and it left me angry.

When she came home I thought she was going to open the door and see him hanging by the neck. Not far...

That's exactly what I was expecting. Movies just love to throw that karmic justice at the audience.

me too! but then they showed him laying on the bed in an odd way and i knew he committed suicide
i've got feelings too, ya know - inbetweeners
I pretty much knew that the brother would kill himself; because she told him a lie. If she would have told him the truth, he would have been anxious, but would have never killed himself. He thought she was going out for a night of fun with some girlfriends, which got him to thinking about how he was stealing her life; he killed himself to set her free to live her own life and not have to care for him all the time. Happens in movies all the time; no one wants to tell the truth and it's almost always tragic.

that was exactly what I was expecting too.
shareI honestly did. Thought she would come home to cops or paramedics in the driveway and get a nice big dose of predictable horror irony.

I didn't until she saw him 'sleeping' before her shower. I did notice the foreshadowing though, the brother saw himself as a burden to her, he wanted her to live her life and he thought he was going to die anyway.
The foreshadowing that you mention was the point that I predicted it would end with him killing himself. Ironically, the sleeping part made me reconsider. I thought he might've actually been alive at that point.
It's one of those days...
Not so much predictable as ridiculous and pointless. After all that sour taste built up in the mouth throughout the movie, surely it could have ended on a slightly sweet note? Nope, it just made you realize you've wasted 90 minutes of your life.
shareThat would have been predictable. Almost every movie does that. Therefore, you think it was a waste because you didn't get what you always get?
shareThe moment that she shot him I knew the brother was going to have killed himself when she went home. Literally out loud I said "& the brother killed himself while she was out so she did that for nothing". I'm sure for some people it was a surprise but I've got a bit of a movie mentality & realized that was more than likely how it was going to end. Can't decide if it would have been better or worse for him to have been alive or for the ending that actually happened.
I would've like to see an extra scene of someone being recruited by her for next years game. It would've added more surprise & the overall theme of helplessness & being forced to do things you'd rather not.
i didnt see the ending coming atall. i didnt expect her to shoot him like that i thought she would just be last man standing. i didnt expect the brother to be dead.

That's what I thought also. I think that would have been more ironic than suicide.
shareWell it managed to shock me, and I thought it was a fitting end to such a gruesome tale.
