澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Ozark season 4 part 2 has wrapped up on Netflix – and, naturally, people have a lot of thoughts about how it all went down. Major spoilers ahead! 

In the episode, we finally find out🅠 how the story ends for Marty and Wendy Byrde (Jason Bateman and Laura Linney). Their foundation fundraiser is a huge success, but things take a dark turn when new cartel boss Camila Navarro (Verónica Falcón) finds out Ruth Langmore (Julia Garner) ki꧙lled her son Javi (Alfonso Herrerra). 

Ruth is then shot dead by Camila, and it seems the Byrdes have got away with everything until private investigator Mel Sattem (Adam Rothenberg) shows u♚p. He knows the truth about Ben's (Tom Pelphrey) death, but Jonah (Skylar Gaertner) arrives on the scene with a shotgun, and the screen cuts to black – followed by the sound of a gunshot. 

"Okay, Ozark had to have the most unsatisfying and dumbest ending of any singꦬle show I've ever watched. What a massive disappointment," said . 

"They made Ruth seem s🍸o slow and dumb in the ending that was horrible writing y'all made her pull up to her crib saw a Cadillac truck that she KNOWS the cartel drives and made her turn her car off to go see who it is ??? You got to be fucking kiddin𒈔g me" criticized . 

"Anyone else VERY dissatisfi𒈔ed with the ending of the season 4 part 2 finale of #Ozark? #RuthLangmore deserved a better, more intelligent, happier ending," said . 

"I sat through four seasons of Ozark🎶's despicable charaജcters for THAT ending? Seriously??? I'm literally fuming right now. What's the point of a story where nobody learns anything? Spoiler alert: waste of time. Wish I could rewind and not watch it," complained . 

"Guess I have to add #Ozark now as one of the great series that got a disappointing finale. I get the "sometimes the bad guys win" ending but it went out with lots of loose ends! Like thཧe story just stopped," noted . 

But it defi𒐪nitely isn't all bad. In fact, a lot of people enjoyed the ending, and thought it was a fitting send-off for the Netflix show.&nbsꦇp;

"That #Ozark ending was just perfect. The show not having a slam-bang finale and having a slow burn instead was the very ethos on which it was built. The theme persisted... that the world is an unfair place, no matter ❀what you feel about it. Hats off [Jason Ba🎶teman]," said . 

"The end of Ozark was unfair... but fitting. It perfectly sums up American culture.🀅 Look at the last few scenes. Pay attention to what color Ruth is wearing. Would I have preferred a neater ending?? Sure. But this one... feels appropriate," . 

Another viewer also of Ruth's white dress: "#Ozark had a༺ perfect ending and the negative reactions prove it. The Byrdes get their happy ending, all dressed in black, and Ruth, dressed❀ in white, has to die for it. It isn't right, but for four seasons we watched Marty and Wendy win as everyone else lost." 

Someone else noted : "I liked the #Ozark ending. They didn't baby us, stayed true to themselves. Didn't need to be a neat little bow on top. I get the picture. The Byrdes are covered in blood and dirt, but they're about to be one of the prominen꧂t political families in the country. American way." 

"Here's an unpopular opinion: I thought the seri﷽es finale to #Ozark was perfect for the story it was telling. Not everything has to have a happy ending and sometimes the bad guys DO get away w🉐ith it. That's real life. It started with the Byrdes… It ended with the Byrdes…" says . 

Another watcher has : "That Ozark ending was harrowing as fuck. The predatory glint in Jonah's eyes. The pride on Wendy and Marty's faces. Chills. Jon꧅ah was the last vestige of humanity the Byrdes had and the show ends with the dark rot consuming them all. A perfect ending."
