Had the same problem with this one's ending as I did with (a better film) The Long Walk's ending. I guess filmmakers believe we need comfort right now.
Produced by Jordan Peele, "Him" follows a promising young athlete taken under the wing of a legendary, diabolical quarterback played by Marlon Wayans.

2) Chicago (and Illinois) said "No," and Trump has backed off.

Was it a net positive or a net negative for the world that the US became as wealthy as it did after WWII? If the US economy had been only as productive annually as Europe as a whole has been since then, for instance.
