i was disappointed with the ending. my first reaction was "what the *beep* becuase up until that point, i was really really enjoying the movie. maybe the writers ran out of ideas or something. too bad.
shareI think his dad was playing too. Both were playing and there could only be 1 winner.
shareYeah, I had the same take. To that end, I enjoyed the film's ending. I think I've seen enough of these kind of films to usually have a pretty good guess as to a film's final plot twist, but I didn't see this one coming at all.
This movie isn't perfect by any stretch, but I liked it a lot more than I thought I would.
yea ok the ending is unexpected and everything but the only reason its unexpected is because it came out of nowhere which isint fun, i liked the Sixth Sense ending better (not trying to compare but here's what i think) at least in the Sixth Sense you knew he'd been shot, but you forget by the end of the movie...now it was just totally unexpected and it felt to me as if they just add a twist...to have a twist
Honnestly either you let the guy win or you make a freaking movie about his father.
Really felt like it was a twist ending just for the purpose of having one
it could have been a dark ending, but they way they did it, did not make sense.
if chad simply dropped the knife and then would have been arrested by the police for murder, then that would have been dark and would have made sense. they could have also found some other dark ending easily. i thought it was clear that he would not win and then live happily ever after.

obviously. nevertheless, why would the dad wait 10 minutes to stab him, therefore giving chad the chance to stab him first. doesn't make sense to me.

it telegraphed itself way at the end. about the time the kid said that it wasn't the only game I got a clue. still it kept me watching to the very end.
shareI didn't see it coming. I thought it was the end when he dropped the knife and said he couldn't do it.
The father also plays the game, and there can be one winner. I think the father also created some of the challenges? Or at the least the one when he had to eat poops and when he had to make kids cry. Basically the father did that so Pusit would think of his childhood (and the father) while playing the game. So when it was time for him to kill the father, he wouldn't be able to do it because he had [good] memories about the father.
What confuses me is, at the end, the dad was sitting in a chair "pretending" to be unconcious. Why would he do that, knowing that his son had a knife and was supposed to stab him? The son, of course, doesn't stab him, but how did the Dad know that he wouldn't? People can't read minds. I don't get it. I was very interested in the movie til that happened. It was realy a let down.
share<<People can't read minds.>>
yes they can, im reading yours right this instant.
actually it would have made sense if the father had planned the game through 13beloved.com. it would have made it an even darker movie, but unfortunately there are not enough indications in the movie to support that theory.

My theory: The Father was the one who actually planned the whole game, or at least made some of the challenges.
Also, I did not know this was a sequel. I thought this was a stand alone film.

My take was that there were many games running simultaneously. The old woman was involved in a game, part of which overlapped with Putsit's game. The first scene shows the old woman "fall" on the zebra crossing to lure the young boy into the path of the bus.
shareThe biggest problem here seems to be that the movie is a sequel, and it seems to assume that the viewer already knows, or understands something, about the kid and the online game. Also, the final scene of the cop walking to the girls just leaves no real concluscion at all, more like a way to open the window for the sequel, which again, just damages the film as making one of a "series" that you need to watch everyone one to understand them all.

That's a very interesting observation, and would sure add something to the logic of the movie. I wonder if anyone involved with the movie has ever confirmed that to be the case.
