Furthermore, without spoiling anything, the ending clearly goes against the typical Hollywood Macho Hero stereotype and is one of the best endings of a movie I've ever seen. Since the movie does show both sides, I'm inclined to give it the benefit of the doubt against what is being alleged in a lawsuit.

This may have convinced me to give it a go. I'll check back with the results upon viewing.
