Ending would've been better IF...


Doomhead handed Charly one of the knives implying he gained some respect for her managing to fight and stay alive and "may the best one win."

I was thinking the same thing.

Spot on

Still debating the "better", but that is exactly what I expected was going to happen.

The ending is left to your imagination.

She only won because time ran out. I personally liked the ending just as it was. It was creepy and you don't know if he is going to kill her, take her back, give her the knife, etc.. so many possibilities. It also leaves it open for a sequel if Rob wants to do one.

Seriously? The ending was clear as a bell. He was there to finish the job. The clock ran out on the "job", but his insane ego was not about to let her go.

We've met before, haven't we?

That would have been a very good ending, but I admit. I was still surprised at the poignance of the last moments, with her life with the carnival flashing before her, all the great memories. All gone and dead now.

There is another reason to fill your heart with hatred.

reply

What I got from the ending is that he passed his title onto her.

reply

That would be a cool ending, but I have to disagree that that's what happened. Simply because, there had never been someone who won before. If he had been the only other previous winner I could see where you were coming from. Cool idea, but I doubt that's the way things went down.

reply

MAYBE he was inviting her to join him in the next game or something bc if u watch he goes to hand over BOTH The knives if I'm correct not just one. Why have the game at all if the winner is just gonna be killed off when it's over. Isn't that against the rules or something lol

reply

I was hoping he was going to give her a ride to Captain Spalding's Fried Chicken/Gas Station.

reply

I liked the downbeat nature of the ending.

I've been chasing grace/ But grace ain't easy to find

reply

It's fine if you enjoyed the film/ending, but there is no ambiguity.

ambiguity
[am-bi-gyoo-i-tee]

noun, plural ambiguities.
1. doubtfulness or uncertainty of meaning or intention:
to speak with ambiguity; an ambiguity of manner.
2. an unclear, indefinite, or equivocal word, expression, meaning, etc.

It's all straight cut and obvious.
