*** SPOILERS AHEAD ****
This is a good movie that could have been a great movie. For anyone who's seen it, I want you to imagine a different ending. What if Amy died in the end. What if she didn't escape the explosion she created? What if she sacrificed her life to save those kids? What an act of selflessness that would have been. That single act would have elevated this above average adventure story into a story you would remember for the rest of your life. This movie would have been 8 stars on IMDb instead of 4.6. I myself wept bitter tears when I thought that was the ending. And I felt, yes, disappointment when I realized she survived.
