the fight scene at the end should have been longer


was great when it landed but I really wanted him to see annie physically suffer, they could have added another minute to it, she got off too easy.

On the contrary, it was too long as is

Any longer and it would have been slapstick. Plus, Annie is just human and sympathetic enough that most viewers would not want to see Paul beat her into ground round - that would reflect terribly on Paul.

No way. Lots of fight scenes in movies are unrealistically long. If anything it was a bit too long as it was. Any longer and it would have become gratuitous.
