Rewind scene completely ruined it Spoiler


I know some people will say I just don't get the "message" or "symbolism",etc. but to me it's all individual interpretation in the end anyway. I was so tense 50 minutes into this,wondering if I could even make it to the end. Because of scenes they did not show,it was so much more unbearable. Great job. Wow. Then, surprise---she grabs the shotgun and turns the tables---a little resolution,OK I'll take it. Aaaah. He goes for the remote and things go backward? I thought there might be something wrong with my player.Or it was a desperate curveball.I hoped it was my player. I couldn't believe it. This was actually intentional. Are you @#$%+$@! kidding me? The continuity was blown and I trudged through the rest. End of story.

I was not thrilled with it either, but I liked it a bit better after they where talking about different realitys on the boat. Like if its a movie its real cuz we can see it but its also a movie to u can like rewind it because it in a way is still not real. It kinda berks the fourth wall to make its point.

I completely agree with what you just said. That guy deserved that buckshot to the belly. He killed the little boy and had just stabbed the dad. The girl would of died either way but I liked that at least for once the bad guy's plan was thrown into jeopardy. Stories should have twists and turns. In what movie does the bad guy have the upper hand 100% of the time? That scene kinda ruined it for me.
