The narrative holds few surprises. We know a character who’s headed to the police station is not going to end up confessing — then why this rather drawn-out scene? And do the friends who end up putting ideas in the hero’s head have to make such obvious suggestions? The ending is a copout. Why take an inherently feel-bad genre if you’re going to insist on souls being salvaged? The audience should feel the blisters, not the balm.
