*This is a spoiler for the film review, please detour if you mind.
"End of the Tunnel" is a Spanish suspense film that tells a suspenseful story about a tunnel. It will be released on July 25, and it is still in the schedule.
When I watch it, 95% of the time I'm thinking "Ah! What to do! It's going to be revealed!" "Why did he do this! He looks so stupid". However, in the last 5%, almost everyone who watched the movie was hilarious.
Maybe it's just me wanting to laugh. The laughing point is that the foreshadowing buried in front finally detonated in a state of ending the boss. There's a bit of a "no-brainer" feeling that the biggest crisis is resolved, but the actual plot fits right in with that phrase "when it looks effortless, it's because the person has put in a lot of effort."
Those "thunderpoints" that detonated are listed here.
1️⃣
The male protagonist has a dog who is suffering from illness. After checking the information on the Internet, he found a way of comfort. Put Anle's medicine in the dog's favorite food. Because of the arrival of the heroine and the mother and daughter, his plan to comfort the dog was interrupted, and the poisonous food was placed on the closet.

At the end of the film, the old man who came to inquire about the last wave of news threatens the male protagonist to give him all the money or kill them all. At this time, he picked up the food on the closet and ate it. It happened to be the comfort food prepared by the actor for the dog... The audience burst into laughter.
2️⃣
The heroine's daughter climbed to the place where the criminals dug the tunnel, which was separated from the hero's house by a wall. She also put the watch of one of them in her pocket. The man was nicknamed "Left-hander" and immediately found it. Others just think that he doesn't know where to put it.
▶The heroine's daughter hurriedly crawled back from the tunnel after they left, and she took the watch with her. ️
At the end of the film, a trio of criminals storms the male lead, aiming their guns at him as if it were a dead end. At this time, the male protagonist used a countermeasure, first calling out the name of "left-handed", and then saying the hiding place of their store that he heard when he was hiding in the tunnel.
When the other two were still hesitant, the male protagonist said that the left-handed watch was somewhere, and the criminal accomplice believed it as soon as he heard it, and pointed the gun at the left-handed, and the death game became a left-handed game...
The use of the watch is the last straw that breaks the trust between the criminal teams, and at the time, it was just a little bit of worry that the heroine's daughter's whereabouts would be exposed and the whole plan would fail.
This reversal of clues, a shift in usage, is unexpected.
When the film saw the end, the entire auditorium was happy, but it was nervous before. I don't know why the male protagonist is doing dangerous things when he is physically disabled. It feels like darkness is waiting for him at the end of the tunnel.
The ending was unexpected and made me laugh with tears. Really interesting.
Because "End of the Tunnel" uses 95% of the time to create an unsolvable dead end and a certain sad atmosphere (the male protagonist has almost no force value), but uses 5% of the clues and time to create a happy ending. However, it does not subvert the essence of the suspense type. The point of breaking through expectations is a surprise reversal, so there is nothing to regret.
