1* 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 (although not on charges of attempted murder of a cop, so there is that). 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.
2* HesJustHiding:
3** 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.
4** [[spoiler:Will shoots Danny InTheBack]] and he seemingly dies from it. But it is never confirmed, never stated and last time he's on-screen, he's still very much alive, if in very bad shape.
5* SweetnessAversion: While the film did get positive reviews, almost all of them tear the ending apart for its saccharine overdose.
6* WinBackTheCrowd: The film is director Creator/MichaelBay's highest-rated film on Website/RottenTomatoes, with [[https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/ambulance 69% of the reviews on the site]] giving the film an overall positive reception and many critics hailing it as a surprising gem from this polarizing director.
