Old shaking doctor

I wish they would have made Jack a little more intimidating (after he is revealed). When he's speaking to Nedley from the shadows he sounds very big and ominous, when it's revealed he turns out to be a 5' tall wrinkled up old doctor, just didn't fit to me. The actor who played him did fine, but it just took the wind out of the sail to see him. I think the ending would've been better if it showed the rippers sillouett walking away fading into the shadows.

I agree it would have been a better ending to not find out who the Ripper was, like in real life.

No power in the verse can stop me

I think the fact that he was just a 5' man that was so dark and evil is what made him so intimidating to Netley.
