I know you've got to take a movie as it is, but what did he think he was going to achieve - mass familial suicide? He puts the rest of his family, and their henchmen and their families, in danger from the other family and the Columbians whom they owe a bunch of money to, and at the end of the day the trade continues with someone else getting rich off it. Wouldn't he have accomplished more by going to the police or leaving the country or just killing himself?
Another issue - do you think it was strange that his brothers, etc. would have held him back when he tried to attack his son for challenging him? Or was that a sign of how little they respected him by then?
Interested in anyone else's thoughts.
