Yeah, if Claire had run off with him at the end, I really wouldn't have liked that at all. I loved the actress and she was the most sympathetic character around, along with the baby. Although I did feel for Krista, and Blake Lively did a great job, IMO.
I thought Renner did an amazing job with playing a complete asshole, and I thought he got exactly what he deserved. I'm suprised anyone felt sympathy for him. Huh. I could sympathize with him briefly when it came out that the guy he killed was going to kill Ben, but that only gets him so far.
I find I can sympathize/empathize with people (as I did at times with Ben's character) and still want them to have to pay the consequences for their actions. I don't think he was an evil guy, but he 100% belongs in jail. He wanted out of the life, but he pissed away his chances with hockey. So, you know. Tough shit!
