The Ones Below : Thought it would have been 10 x better if… (Spoiler)

Thought it would have been 10 x better if… (Spoiler)

...they just left it as the Mum being crazy and that she had imagined/created all the dodgy things the downstairs neighbours did. It would have been horribly tragic, don't get me wrong... if she had done the unthinkable to her baby and killed herself - but it would have been much more unpredictable and impactful in my opinion, especially the bet where she sent the email saying she's sorry and the husbands reaction, really powerful. Having the final 'twist' of the odd couple setting it all up, made it feel like a run of the mill OK thriller which was very contrived.

Still didn't mind it but that's just my opinion.

More unpredictable???? It would have been very very predictable, and from the US.

I said it would have been more unpredictable 'in my opinion'. Yours obviously differs.

In my mind the movie was setting up the downstair neighbours as the eventual villains, which came to be.

In my head I was thinking the same thing. So much so, I was going back and forth from a 7 rating to 6 rating based on whether or not the mom was really crazy.
