I thought they did a good job of demonstrating John to be a knowing hypocrite, like when he gets bad news from the radiologist and immediately fantisizes someone in a trap. I also like the part where he throws away his schematic on the rack when he thinks he is in remission.
Up until this point I didn't know if he was deluded or if the tumor in his brain hurt his sense of reality. I think he is very clearly a villain and hypocrite and I take the part with the kid to show that he is arbitrary. He arbitrarily likes the kid here but not the teenager or the young daughter.
I do agree about the Cube 1 type ending that was cheesy and I'm not sure if that was an attempt at irony.
Yeah I thought the final set up was especially contrived and it almost put me off. I really enjoyed everything through Valentina's test so I wasn't soured by the Act 3 twist
I didn't like the third act with Parker's arrival. I thought that he was in on it, I mean even the cabbie was in on it. There's no way they let two marks in the same room to compare notes.
The walking out to white reminded me of the first Cube
That could be cool
Right. If so it would be cooler if she escaped as opposed to being let go
She didn't play her "intended" game (the bloodboard) and by his rules that he told all of them when he greeted them that meant she would be trapped there forever.
It's not that they lack the will to live when they run out of time at the last second. It's more like Jigsaw is betting against their survival and is setting up an unfair over-under. At least that's how I see it, a low-key way of showing he doesn't mean what he says about every subject's survival
I liked Leprechaun Returns. I liked the meta humor and some of the call backs.
I thought Deb's portrayal made sense given that he had successfully gone 10 years without killing. I can't picture Dexter as a character making it that long without killing if Deb had been understanding and told him to move on.
