After enduring the dreadful Martha Marcy May Marlene complete with its non ending here we have yet another movie with a non ending. At least in the case of The Good Doctor the movie was moderately interesting up until the final two minutes.
The doctor in question played by Orlando Bloom is a difficult character to fathom. There is no Vietnam war experience to explain or excuse his actions and patient obsession. It may be a problem if you like to have a reason why he is so messed up as none is given.
Following the despatch of the blackmailer the film descends into American Psycho style with a tenacious detective looking like he is about to calmly intimidate Bloom into accidental confession. Alas the viewer is presented with a Bret Easton Ellis fantasy/reality double ending which merely perplexes.
Defeat snatched from the jaws of victory.
