I felt as though this internal struggle was going on for a long time and was saying the same thing over and over. The ending almost defeated the point of all of that. Wasn't necessarily the most clever ending but I can appreciate it.

Also, wasn't quite sure whether this “love” between “Jasmine” and him supposed to be viewed as consensual or if it was meant to be commentary on something. Just wondering if we're supposed to genuinely believe this woman loves her captor.
