I dont get the ending. The plan all along was to "clean" both of them orchestrated by their handler? How would the handler know that the kid would take a detour at the hotel and get picked up by the DA and that he'd use the drugs and that he'd get into an accident that would make it look like he died?

It felt like they suddenly lost 30 minutes worth of budget by the end with how that ending plays out.

That's a great point. It was a very messy ending and cut short clearly. There would have been no need for either Brad or George had he not fallen so how did he know

I read online that there are talks and Apple is planning a sequel. The mid credits was supposed to possibly signify that someone has a video of the actual crime in the beginning

What I find interesting is that both the DA and the kid both said they were at the bar and that's how they met, but clearly the kid was waiting for the DA in the lobby with the backpack... That's why I am even more confused.

I read all the articles about the ending out there and they are pushing getting set up as the ending, but it makes no sense at all. So I thought about it, and the only thing that could possibly makes sense is that it was not a set up at the beginning. The DA got the cleaner's number a long time ago. So the DA called the number for Clooney. The hotel owner got the number for Brad contemporaneously from the handler at the time of the accident. The handler had no way of knowing the DA was going to call Clooney. However, over the course of the night, the handler realizes that they got together, and together they know too much and at that point decided they must die. Somewhere along the line, the handler must have figured out (maybe even when they were at the hotel), which can be explored in the sequel. However, the loose thread is why did Richard Kind's character have that look of "I'm going to wack them." He may also have had a part in the shootout at the end.

you are so right, it didn't make sense at all. Also having security camera in the room? and handler knows about the drug?

Had its moments but was a hot mess. Unsatisfying ending and about 25 minutes longer than it needed to be

The start makes me think I am in the wrong movie, like some horror flick.

The kid was a great actor. He had the best monologue and spent the first half doing crazy shit wearing just underpants and socks.

Good movie. The cinematography was great in places. Stuck the landing in the ending

Cherished every second. Nice old school movie no political or agenda talk or having to worry about some drinker popping up on my YouTube feed talking about 'the message'. Really tho it felt like spending time with old friends. Loved every second. Also always get a kick when Richard Kind pops up in a movie. Dude has looked exactly the same as I remember him as a kid first watching Clifford.

It had a few funny moments but I felt like I didn't really care what happened and I just watched it to get to the end. I love Amy Ryan and I thought Austin Abrams was the best part, especially when he got hit by the car!

u/DryScarcity1658 Oct 02 '24

Let me get right. The DA hired the handler to start a drug war for her, the kid is actually a prostitute. He was waiting for her at the elevator and not in a bar, they both lied about that. The DA drugged the kid, but the kid also consuming the H let him to fainting and crashing into the mini bar? Hence the DA panicking at the beginning? The plan would’ve gone either way because the drugs were in the hotel room and the handlers had to get rid of them regardless.

I just don’t understand how these guys are so smart but didn’t think it was weird that the backpack was hidden? This is only thing that made me mad but apart from that is there anything I missed or any plot holes in what I said? Please tell me this movie a head scratcher lol

Guys I don't get the young guy/old guy dynamic. Brad Pitt portrays the character as the younger version of George Clooney that treats him like an old Geezer in some scenes (while secretly admiring him and his tactics) but in reality they're almost the same age and Pitt is only 3 years younger than him... Isnt it ironic

Well, it's a silly movie having its moments.

Not exactly Tarantino, but in that vibe.

I laughed at them two being caught in the Croatian circle dance, that was Jackass material😄

This movie was too good to be released directly on Apple TV plus. I completely enjoyed this movie and I would have loved to watch it in the theatres. I think a lot of people in India would really like this movie. It could have been one of those big hits of the year.

I think there’s a good movie in there somewhere. Dialogue and script needs to be tightened up. Kid should have been a part of it earlier. Must have just backed up the Brinks truck for Clooney and Pitt bc they were phoning it in long distance. Was an OK watch.

u/KinagoOG Sep 30 '24

They relied too heavily on Clooney and Pitt’s chemistry, but at least with Ocean’s 11 they had stellar backup and better writing. This didn’t work for me at all, and as for that ending, why in the name of Parker and Longabaugh did they think that was a good idea?? Clue’s in the question, folks.

I am baffled on how these scripts get signed off on at Apple. There is the bones of a movie here but not much meat. There is lots of money on screen and it looks great but lacks substance. I feel like these producers are just making bad choices to troll the tech companies at this point.
