* EsotericHappyEnding: In the end, [[spoiler: Danny is dead -- and shot by Will, no less -- while Will is captured and will probably spend the rest of his life in prison. His wife still has cancer and there is zero guarantee she will get better]]. But Cam regained her empathy, so... yay? It is especially jarring since the ending tries really hard to be upbeat in nature, while the actual events really aren't.

** Last time we saw him, [[spoiler: Captain Monroe was shot with a machine gun]] and bleeding to death. But he is not actually ''declared'' dead and like with the grand majority of such situations, the film deliberately maintains ambiguity about the ultimate fate.

* IdiotPlot:
** The entire premise hinges on the fact that the brothers can't let the cop in the back of the ambulance die. The monumental collateral damage their car chase cause and the eventual [[spoiler: cartel involvement]] easily killed dozens. [[NeverSayDie Or at least should have]].
** Hey, how about calling back the car chase after bank robbers, because your dog is one in the chasing cars. How Monroe was planning to ever explain that one to his higher-ups is a mystery.
