I liked the movie a lot, but there were a few things I found puzzling, or lacking. At times there was still too much of a tv-mentality going on where they would say stuff was happening instead of showing it (where showing it would have meant a great deal more in this case; I'm talking about a bit at the ending), and the
Spoiler:
unprovoked killing of a major character that had a vital function in the synergy of the team was of course uncalled for, unnecessary and far too random. There's just no reason other than trying to be edgy and 'unpredictable'. And that's a shame, because the writing is so good it could've have handled a little more clichéd narrative in that aspect.
