You know how they should have ended this movie?


They should have ended the movie (spoiler alert, spoiler alert, spoiler alert) with at the very last moment his buddy and the girl getting into the boat and either that's how it ends, or they are seen talking to him cajoling him that no one with a slight mental imbalance should kill themselves, which is not to be confused with a fatal, physical illness. The message should have been that mental anguish is not pain and no friend let's his friend die, certainly not without a ceaseless and unending fight, regardless of your word, which you didn't even remember the promise you'd made, and was probably riddled with loop holes and pre-conditions, etc., that it wouldn't hold up in court, etc & etc.

Then, the whole movie would have been saved from the most loathsome piece of senseless crap and undeveloped characters or plot, such as why a horny, single woman falls for a suicidal moron and not the buddy, which was why she went on the trip, yes?
