WARNING!!! This review contains spoilers!!!

I don't completely hate this movie just because I really really liked the first 99% of it, but the ending makes the whole experience feel worthless for me. The ending should have been the pay off, not a slap in the face. If you feel differently about the movie, I'm happy for you, because I WISH I could have felt like my time spent watching it was spent wisely.
