At the end, I thought Vince was going to...


...kill the couple and make out with their cash and split it with his (former) friend or something. I didn't see the ending coming that actually happened. Good film.

I thought it was going to turn out that the money was fake or something.. That they did all those things for nothing. I didn't particularly enjoy this film... Found it a bit boring and didn't come away feeling anything other than disgust for pretty much all the characters... They could easily have walked away with however many thousands they'd managed to collect up and split it.. But they got greedy and I'm just not sure I buy it.. I know that desperation can do a lot of things but he's supposed to be a family man and he does these things? I don't really get why this film was rated so highly

Part of me thought there would be a twist, it could have gone a lot of different ways, like the taxi driver killing the finger-less guy, but I liked it better that it ended the way it was intended, the guy gets all the money and to go home but knowing that he's killed his friend and lost his finger but having to explain all the cash. I liked it.

I thought the money maybe fake and also the taxi driver killing him at the end, I was expecting more of a twist but am ok with the ending as is.

The best part of the movie was how nonchalant the rich couple was about whether they stayed or went. There's a movie like this(called "Would You Rather") where people get killed if they leave the game, which sucks. Cheap thrills was 100% voluntary.
