JACK NICHOLSON - THE PLEDGE (END) - SEAN PENN

[GettnBooted]

thanks for answering that...the movie is clear as mud now...lol but i appreciate the effort i guess it's supposed to just stay a mystery i bet if I asked Jack himself he wouldn't know who da man was either...I guess I missed the point of the whole movie...I had forgotten I'd even asked...ty alot!

It makes you look at the homeless dude differently

[RightWingHunter666]

Great movie but this was one fucked up ending. Damn

[buffdrink]

great movie and a very bad ending...

@buffdrink

私は逆に、エンディングが最も素晴らしいと感じました。

真相が曖昧なまま終わりそうでモヤモヤしてた所に

この芝居があって、ああ観て良かったって気分。

...?

[GettnBooted]

am I just a dummas? or was it impossible to tell who the killer was? i never figured it out! can someone spoil it for me and tell me who the killer was? he's the burned guy in the car right? but who was he before that? thanks...GB

[jegspillerpiano]

@GettnBooted Yes he was the guy in the car crash, but we never see him and we don't know who he was before that. We don't need to, because the movie is the story of Nicholson's character. We find out he was right all along, and the sting operation would probably have proved him right if not for the crash. It was a real ball-acher of an ending.

[gramic88]

@jegspillerpiano Actually there is a scene in that movie which gives you a chance to see murderer's figure. Watch carefully a moment when det. Black enters shop to speak with an older woman.

I watched this movie when i was way too young...Strange thing is, it stuck with me and it's one of my favourites.

[EyeHeartTrexes]

@HeyYashamaru i know exactly what you mean! the same thing here, strange how that works!

[waldenpondogre]

There really was a killer on the way to see that little girl at the end of the movie. Benicio del Toro's character was innocent. But one of the movie's flaws is that Jack Nicholson kind of just "goes crazy" out of nowhere, there's really no backstory or explanation to why he starts drinking, talking to himself, or hearing voices. A "normal" 60 year old man just cracks? Not all that believable if you ask me.

[EyeHeartTrexes]

@waldenpondogre It makes perfect sense. Have you watched the entire movie? He swore an oath to a devastated mother. She even said do you swear on your soul? he was dedicated from that point on to finding the murderer. And he came close to proving who it was. He was absolutely sure but noone else was. Then when the murder (Pastor Simon) only Jack knew for certain. And since the guy no showed (died in the car crash) he probably believes hes still out there. Thus probably driving him crazy.

@EyeHeartTrexes Wasn't pastor Jackson the killer?

[SmokinGun95]

@nemzoldszemu666 we dont speak arabic habebe

[Roswellsounds]

@nemzoldszemu666 What the hell are you talking about, man? I´m interested now! =D

[sushiboi66]

too bad

and jerry became the crazy guy in town

[sushiboi66]

i didn't understand what happened

can someone explain me?

there really was a kiddnapper on its way to hurt the litle girl?

or its was just jerry's idea?

[kieffelstein]

The killer dies in accident car at the end (crash with a truck). The killer was real.

[Roswellsounds]

Excellent film...

Why did he keep working on the case? Because he didn´t want to retire? Because he made an oath in front of a devastated mother? Black suspected that the monster who killed those childs wasn´t captured. After his investigations, he was SURE.

But random situations came in the middle. The man who continued working to stop the killer ended up alone, lost in his insanity. And the stupid cops who wouldn´t lift a finger to investigate went on...

Amazing story indeed...

[TheDayfornight]

@Roswellsounds why did he continue? because he was right

[Roswellsounds]

@TheDayfornight Yes he was. And sometimes in this fucked up place, when you are right and want to press on, you end up alone, crying at the moon with a bottle in your hands...

[TheDayfornight]

@Roswellsounds i totally agree

[etbella3]

@Roswellsounds The movie opens with wild mustangs running free.

[PheboisPictures]

@Roswellsounds

such a police man you wouldnt find in reality because they are all lazy ...

[Noodles37UK]

@PheboisPictures Your cops must be as bad as ours. Brit cops are a JOKE now.

[AirinTenenbaum]

Thanks for posting this. It's one of the most amazing performances ever, it makes me cry everytime I see it. Sean Penn's such a great director! His movies are so intense.

... so sad...
