8 Movies That Completely Ignored Important Plot Points

During Kingsman’s finale, eccentric villain Richmond Valentine activates the SIM cards he’d previously given away for free, to every consumer on the planet who desired one. This results in anyone near a phone (basically the entire global population) becoming bloodthirsty and violent, killing their families, friends, and anyone else in their way.

Fortunately, the Kingsman spies manage to shut this down and defeat Valentine, but not before the planet devolves into complete and utter chaos for a good ten minutes; buildings were ransacked, vehicles were on fire, and bodies lined the streets.

These events were absolutely devastating, and yet, the end of the movie fails to acknowledge or address the global destruction that just took place, in any capacity.

There’s even a closing scene where Eggsy returns to his local pub to rescue his mum.

This presumably takes place shortly after the events of the third act (after all, why would Eggsy wait months before whisking his mum away to safety? He wouldn’t. He’d do it right away), and yet, the establishment shows no signs of damage, despite it regularly hosting football hooligans who carry guns and knives, and despite the fact we saw it being destroyed earlier.

There would be dead politicians, celebrities, religious figures, service men and women, and sports personalities everywhere; everything would be chaos and the global cleanup would take months. The fact that the movie doesn’t hint at any of this (even with a quick line of dialogue) is just baffling.
