The ending was a little too convenient...spoiler

Okay, so it's a pretty convoluted story that they try to wrap up neatly, but one thing is abundantly clear...the last girl standing (who was a knockout) was the one responsible for this mess so why did the kid pull the pin and do her job for her? In his condition would he really care if the video got out? Wouldnt he be more interested in scar face exacting some more payback?

Obviously he wanted revenge against all four of the kids since he was able to communicate after a fashion and had the video set up so he could watch the events unfold. Obviously he should have known that at some point the video would get disclosed as his motivation for hanging himself...so what then? I guess we're supposed to believe that his desire to keep the video from getting out was stronger than his desire for revenge and since he brother saw it he had to die to?

An entertaining enough movie that I enjoyed, just not very logical in how it ended.

I don't think he wanted revenge at all, it was all his crazy brother's idea. He wasn't able to communicate enough to get his bro to not do this. And at the end he pulled the pin to end his suffering from his almost total paralysis and brain damage and because he was ashamed that his bro had found out his big secret.

Yeah, I'm only two years late here, but what the hell, I saw it tonight and I also noticed he used his eyes to show Gemma the phone in the room. I really think he wanted to help and was sickened by the whole thing.

I'm pretty sure Felix didn't want revenge. It was Justin that was doing all of this because HE thought Felix would want revenge, and also because of the whole pride thing (as per his little diatribe).

In fact, the reason Felix attempted suicide was because of his brother. He didn't want to face his brother, a clear homophobe, and risk him finding out about what he did at the party. I think he was then even more upset at the fact that he killed Jemma and the others. If anything, I think Felix wanted revenge on his brother.

Indeed, Felix wanted nothing to do with it.
In fact he seemed sad when Justin killed Gemma.
It's quite possible he wanted to kill his brother for it, so wanted him to know everything so give him the shame he was afraid of and then finsihed him off.

If he wanted to kill the others, he would have opened the grenade before she got out.

Yup, the cause of it all was the one who got away with it. Not a very satisfactory outcome.

It would have been better if Eleanor and the other kid died and then the brother found the video later and put the pieces together and ended up killing his brother cause he hates gays. Would have been a much darker ending.
