It could have went deeper and gave a better conclusion
400 Days is one those films that attempts to get it’s viewers to think about a deeper theme and meaning. The problem is 400 Days isn’t thought provoking in any meaningful way. The story attempts to do something interesting in the first half and then forces a sort of “twist” half way through. It ends up not working because there isn’t any mystery to solve or even think about. It’s all explained through the exposition as the characters wonder aloud and the new characters flat out explain what has happened. The film then attempts to get the audience to not believe what they just saw by throwing in an ending that doesn’t actually make sense even if you try to give it the benefit of the doubt. Instead it comes off as if the director didn’t know how to end it and doubled down with a twist to leave the ending “ambiguous.”Viewers will more than likely leave confused and wondering why did the film end that way rather than exploring what the ending meant.
Poor sad excuse for a sci fi movie. Doesn't have any resolution. Terrible. Dane cook is really decent. Shame he ended up doing this schlock. Brandon is right at home here.
