What’s not there? The ending is predictable, and so you always know how the film is going to end. It also has an ambiguous message at the end, and it leaves you hanging in thought. The film is not without flaws at parts for it becomes a little dramatic even. Though individual performances by the two actors in incredible, the pair fails to put up a good chemistry. The film was also not widely accepted.
