You are quite right. Perhaps some people would be better served by knowing the ending in order to better grasp the story.

I'm not sure about that critic's critique. Did he not know that Llewelyn's fate was cast the moment he left with the bag? Llewelyn's character is a good example of a plot line that demonstrates tragic inevitability. It was never a question of "if," it was a question of "when."
If the critic wants to whine about losing a character midstream, I wonder how he felt about Pulp Fiction?
Is he still wondering what the Hell happened to Ophelia in Hamlet?
