You don't make a movie without brolins character or TLJ confronting the villain again. Totally unsatisfying ending.
I enjoyed the movie though.

That's the way most "cops and robbers" movies go, yes, there is always some kind of final confrontation...which is precisely why this movie stands out the way it does. It's stark, it's bleak, it doesn't follow cliche story telling methods...hell there's not even a musical score. It was all done that way on purpose.

I don't know how old you are, but watch this movie again in a couple years and it will be better, then keep watching it and it I think you'll like it more. Many of the movies I now consider the best I've ever seen are ones I hated when I was younger.

Couldn't disagree more. Brolin's character dying offscreen is one of the greatest reveals of all time. The movie isn't about him.
