The main plot of the movie is entertaining although somewhat slow building. The numerous sub-plots that mean nothing, very weak character building attempts & unneeded scenes are surprisingly frequent in this movie.
The "big scene" at the end has been done in hundreds of movies before this, yet it caught me completely off-guard! After thinking about it for a day or two, I realized that I spent more time trying to reconstruct the loose ends at the theater than watching the ending!
I had to laugh at the final scene as the credits rolled. An exhausted MC hands a taxi driver 50 bucks & tells him to "drive". With traffic, 50 bucks will take you from Lower Manhattan to Central Park. Not nearly enough time to decompress, just enough time to end the credits I guess :-)
