Too many fakeouts
I knew nothing about this movie going in. Having seen so many blockbusters, I told myself, "oh theres no way Christian Slater will die. He's the star." Well once he died I was excited to see how else the story would defy my expectations. That scene with the lights and the water had me on the edge of the seat, and overall I was pretty engrossed.
Then the ending. It's cliche enough to bring back somebody the audience thought was dead, but this movie did it at least 3 times. I was already a little put off by this unimpressive gimmick, but when Gabe showed up to save the day, it was just overkill.
