Try to imagine that you are not an American, and you don't know anything about Charles Mason crimes. Then you will realize that the movie ending is not great, it is just ok. So the 2 and a half hours of boredom are not a justification for 10 minutes in the end that are ok. This film is very far from a masterpiece ! All 9 and 10 reviews are from paid people or from ones that tries to stay in line with Tarantino's hype. But the king is naked, there is nothing great about this movie, you should simply admit that is at most a trivial one, way too long, with some good actors that have not plot to play
