from an otherwise decent product. sad.
spoiler:
when something like this happens it really kicks the audience out of the mood. srsly.
why couldn't he have taken the tape with him to the police first before saving his girl? smdh.
Thats not a plot hole, thats just a poor choice that the character makes.
He could have done tons of things with the tape like hide it, take it to the police, put it back where he found it, try to find a way to copy it... etc. But he just left it in the tape player which is very much in alignment with his childish characterization I thought. He, like a child, decides in that moment to take on someone like Nigel who, to any rational person, would not be the first option to pick a fight with. Charlie is literally living moment to moment this entire movie, it would have been out of his character to begin in the final chapter to actually think before he acts. He moves to another country on a whim, sleeps outside on concrete, does LSD with strangers and wonders around chasing only whats on his mind in the present. Thoughts?
I think a 5 year old would've taken the tape. xD so the story itself just fails completely on that point.
he's living in the moment, not stupid (i hope).
yeah. it's like at the airport where he didn't bring up a stupid lie to get the airport police of his back. but is it a new fact that you don't make good decisions when you're on drugs/meds all the time.
i would have uploaded the vid to liveleak to make sure it's online, then bring it to the police. but he didnt has a smartphone or anything like that.
Oh I thought this post was about the police waiting outside the Marco Polo.
The tape WAS brought to the police so that 'plot hole' is filled.
I see movies.

People should look for definition of plot hole.
The minute I saw there was a dangerous guy chasing the girl, my decision would be to forget completely the *beep* girl, go to another country or whatever.
He didn't.
And that's NOT a plot hole, just because I wouldn't do what he did or I would do different from what a character did.
lol he's in a foreign country where he's been repeatedly *beep* by the police. Why would he take the tape to them? What a ridiculous idea.
The people you idolize wouldn't like you.
