I tend to agree.
The "85 minutes of boring" was actually the movie foreshadowing and building up to the ending.
It was mostly the plot and the movie in itself.
People who say the ending was the best part, or "came out of nowhere", I assume weren't able to notice all the hints building up to the climax?
Not everyone can follow things that aren't spoon-fed to them (although this movie flat-out tells you what's happening near the end, it's still not 100% forthcoming), so I understand why some people are so confused by the higher rating others are giving it.
Your question makes me think of that one scene in the movie.
The one that answers your question and they explain *exactly* why Mike can't go party anywhere and should lay low instead.
The first scene Mike speaks, right after they introduce him in the field.
Him and Geoff are talking and Mike talks about how he can't (doesn't want to) go on the field trip and will go somewhere else.
Geoff mentions the "paparazzi had it out for him" and he'd be found & hounded anywhere he went.
"It's gonna be laying low in Wales..."
The difference(s) between Saudi Arabia and the USA are in their locations (one is in North America, while the other is in the Middle East), their geopolitics, state religion, education system, culture, industry, media, etc.
Did/does Clayton Lockett have something to do with anything or something?
"He took 43 to die". Okay... soooo... what?
I wonder how long the woman he kidnapped and buried alive's ordeal lasted? Or the people he raped?
Almost *nobody* gives a shit it took him 43 minutes to die. Could have taken an hour and 45 minutes, nobody would care.
(Except you, apparently, and other murder/rapist sympathizers).
I'm sure most of the COs involved in his execution believed in God as well, though.
I guess you could say they were just doing the Lord's good work.
Although, God/the Bible (Leviticus 24:19–21) says "what he has done, so shall be done to him".
So, I guess... *technically*, were they REALLY trying to obey the word of God, they'd have raped him and buried him alive instead of letting him off with a 43minute lethal injection.
12 years later, but that's the nature of the internet lol
You've got the correct idea, and have obviously watched the movie (and understood it).
"Kerrydavis" is not making any sense at all.
She was so very brutally, obviously willing to sacrifice her friends to sleep with Mike. We KNOW this because that's exactly what happened.
If she wasn't willing to do it, she wouldn't have done it.
"KerryDavis" is only arguing tooth and nail because they very clearly cannot tell the difference between "willing" and "actively plotted/planned and executed".
Nobody (nobody) said she planned to kill her friends. They said she was WILLING to do it Because she was... because... she, well... y'know.. *DID*.
Not sure who "the guy in the bar" is, or why their opinion would matter.
The people who investigated their claims said they were frauds though... and the guy that ate dinner with them said they weren't.. so it must be true?
Seems to cut the one way, mostly
If you'd like.
The boy's father didn't seem very dangerous, tbh.
Probably didn't hurt that his mother was the casting director for the movie, as well.
Kind of like the freed slaves from America who decided to go back to Africa (Liberia) and promptly went about enslaving the local population to work on the plantations and farms they started.
I know I'm 7 months late...but this is the first time I've ever seen a "this will flop" post where OP came back to say they were wrong.
It's...unheard of...
