Could have been an excellent movie!

Warning: Spoilers
For an hour and 20 minutes this was a very good movie. Unfortunately the movie is an hour and 35 minutes long. The acting was very strong, the plot kept you wondering what was really going on, and you really wanted to see where this movie was going. Unfortunately, that's when Hollywood got their hands on it and made it a "happily ever after" movie. The last 15 minutes you just wanted to yell at someone because you were completely ripped off. I will not give away any of the plot or twists but the writer/director should have stood by his guns and given this gritty suspense thriller the ending it really deserved. It is so sad that in todays world, movies have to, so many times, fall back onto an old formula that says there are no bad things in the world and everyone lives happily ever after.
