Same problem as 'The Eye'

This is nothing like "The Eye" plot-wise really, but it is like that earlier Pang brothers movie in that it starts out really well, but kind of falls apart in an ending that is too long and only belabors the things that are obvious while making the things that are confusing more confusing.

I liked this movie, but it could have ended ten or fifteen minutes earlier (when the first credits appear). Nothing that happened after that made the movie any more clear or any less ambiguous.

I am not fan of simplistic endings "a la Hollywood". I happen to love these kind of endings that you call "confusing". Yeah, they might be hard to be fully understood but at least these endings aren't your typical pre-digested food for little children. Au contraire they let you wondering for entire days. Something that I like.

Yes, please do. Let's start a list so I'll know which movies to entirely avoid. I HATE the ones that leave you wondering - they leave me feeling entirely unsatisfied.

there's a difference between thought-provoking and confusing. i suggest you learn to distinguish between the two.

There's a difference between capitalization and writing like an illiterate moron. I suggest you learn to distinguish between the two.

I didn't find the film confusing in the slightest or ambiguous, I thought the story was perfectly well explained, I didn't like the first credit thing though.
