The twist itself doesn't bother me at all. I don't think it's stupid, silly or funny. In fact, I thought it was very clever. I never suspected either of them of actually committing the crime so I never saw it coming.
What bothered me about the twist is the way it's revealed. The way it unfolds is the part I found very disappointing and unrealistic. Why on earth would the man go through all that trouble and just when he's about to be pardoned; free and clear, never to be tried again, he spills the beans? What the F#$@? Go ahead, make your grand confession but, for goodness sake, wait until you are out of the clutches of the law.
That ending, him walking free even though he's guilty, would have been disturbing. It would have bothered me but I would have thought it a better movie. Then, if when he walks out of the prison he gets hit by a bus, oh well; or an actual jealous lover of the girl shoots him dead, too bad. That would have been an ironic double twist.
Woman, man! That's the way it should be Tarzan. [Tarzan and his mate]
