Holy mackerel, what stupidity


While in his garage/warehouse, the one girl shoots him. He falls to the ground. She weakly hits him with the rifle over the back a couple times and then tries to flee with her friend.

Jesus, beat him over the skull until you see broken skull and brain. It's really not rocket science. You have the upper hand. Take advantage of it.

I know. That drove me nuts. She could have looked for his big-ass knife and at least cut his hands off or something!



The ratio of people to cake is too big.

If the shocked/captured dame-duo had even a smidgen of wherewithal, eg: resourcefulness to kill the sonofabitch b4 escaping w/their lives intact, well, that woulda ended this cinematic masterpiece nearly 1/2way thru! Not 2mention- leaving Uncle Michael, er...Mr.Mick, in one piece & alive assured 'fan(s)' of that incredibly anticipated sequel.

That's not the point. Yes, it would have ended it, but the opportunity should not have been presented so goddamn obviously in the first place. You can't use "If they followed logic the plot would die" as an argument FOR the movie. It's the plot's job to avoid these kinds of "JUST *beep* DO IT!" moments.

Andskotinn!

Or take the big "Knoife" and put it in his back a few inches. Anything.

Are you not entertained?!

EXACTLY. But I guess movies would be too short if the protagonists weren't complete morons who never finish off the enemy when they've got the chance...??

"I know, let's just leave him unconscious right here next to his gun, and forget all about that knife...oh wait, gotta run back for the keys!" 😦 Seriously, you fool?!


🐩 Power!

And doing that ends the movie.
The girls being in shock thought he was fatally wounded but he arose on the third minute to provide more torment and a longer movie.

No cash here!! Here, no cash!!! Cash, no!!!! Robbo? No Cash!

Sure, be as bad as him. Some people have morals.

The entire scene should have been rewritten. I didn't think the ending was that good either.... they get to a hill... then somehow get to the car garage.... The film had SO much potential... Mick was a great villain, and the first scene in the torture shed was legitimately terrifying.... but I think the second one was better.

Hopefully there is a third and it ROCKS

It was. And why didn't they push his car down the hill as well before they went back?
