10 Things Wrong With Jupiter Ascending

2. Sean Bean Doesn't Even Die

If there's one actor in the entire world who could be described as Hollywood's cinematic punching bag, it's Sean Bean, who has become infamous for dying in an overwhelming majority of the movies (and TV shows) in which he stars. It'll be a surprise to most audiences, then, that he actually survives the events of the movie, despite it looking like he'll bite the bullet on more than one occasion. For starters, he appears to turn bad half-way through the movie, which seems to blatantly set him up for a grisly, satisfying death later on, but when his true allegiance is revealed later, he's given a reprieve and spends most of his remaining time on a ship away from the action. So, yep, the Wachowskis signed Bean to their movie and didn't even give him a customarily awesome death scene send-off. That might be the biggest tragedy of all.
