[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels?

Director clearly thought Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

The cinematography in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Honestly, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels?

Look, I wanted to love Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Unpopular opinion: Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels is the most overrated film of the decade

Rewatched Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
