  • Jonas feels underdeveloped: more rivalry scenes or removing him altogether is proposed, and neither he nor his driver seems to deserve death.
  • A longer, more graphic Jonas death is desired, though the distant airborne truck is defended as terrifying.
  • A dedicated map reader is obsolete beside a phone.
  • The decline of drive-ins is lamented despite a temporary pandemic revival.
  • Hunt’s running is criticized as awkward; injury and obstacles are offered as defenses and Bullock as a hypothetical replacement.
  • Hunt’s loose hair and bangs are criticized, with a ponytail preferred.
  • Cutaways to an unidentified meteorological center add unnecessary storm exposition.
  • The parental-trauma explanation is considered unnecessary for an already frightening story and compared with Batman’s lifelong response to loss.
