Title: Next

So, this movie looked cool in the commercials, with Nicholas Cage doing the Atium dance. So we decided to go see it on Saturday. And we enjoyed the movie a lot—right up to the point where it ended, and we were like "What? That can't be the end! They must be tricking us!" But no, it was the end, and a horrible, horrible end it was. I mean—everything up until the last microsecond of the movie was just fine, it's just that...they needed another 20 minutes! Or SOMETHING! I never got the feeling that the climax of the movie ever came. It was really frustrating.

So, I'm not surprised it's doing poorly at the box office. I doubt many people are walking out of that movie and recommending it to their friends. Because the end is just not satisfying. At all.
