The ending Also made no sense, guy was having a meeting about the fact he was a 'trigger' (a cop that shot people too often) yet he killed so many other cops at the end and just walks away? Sooooo unrealistic. The premise of closing down the island was good but the way it's mentioned is like its common practice, I mean, surely shutting down the island would be something thats completely ridiculous and take more than 2 minutes to be decided?
They were given a time limit that in the end made no difference, why bother giving them one when nothing happens when it's not abided by?
The bad guy dies way to easily .(not that im a masochist LOL just that after all he does, he dies essentially from a really easy wound)

Thematically (as well as chronologically) this is somewhere between Mission: Impossible and the first Bourne film, initially given a wistful, existential quality by the script (co-written by David Mamet under a pseudonym). It gives an extra lift to what was already a very robust and engaging thriller. What really makes it sing are the action scenes and car chases, which are superb. The movie cops out in a few places, particularly the end, but remains extremely engaging and polished: superior stuff.

I sold my soul for a sitcom
By C. Guyer
Name – Kendyl OwensAge- 23 Occupation – Super spy/Malcolm in the Middle Fan-Club president Dislikes – Baddies, people that don’t like Malcolm in the Middle, Brussel sprouts.Hobbies – Watching Malcolm in the Middle, catching baddies, despising speed-dating.***There’s been a rash of young girls going missing in a little town a few miles away. The cops have no leads, no evidence, and no bodies. The only thing they know is that the girls all went missing at a hole in the wall bar that caters to the supernatural. With nothing else to go on, the locals do the only thing they can.They call Bump in the Night Investigations. And I get the case.
Ok so as short as this was it was so well written! The main character is funny and witty! I really would love to see a series of this as it left me wanting so much more!!
