The Cloverfield Paradox: 20 WTF Moments

2. Jensen's Comically Over-The-Top Demise

It's a grand cinematic tradition that the villain has to die a comically exaggerated death, and that's exactly what happens to Jensen.

After wounding Schmidt and attempting to convince Hamilton to take the escape pod down to "her" family, a fight breaks out, with Hamilton eventually shooting holes in one of the space station's windows.

Jensen ends up pulled into the fast-shattering window, which eventually breaks apart, catapulting a helpless Jensen into space for a quick death while Hamilton scarcely makes her escape.

It's goofy as hell, sure, but undeniably entertaining, even if Jensen's utilitarian motives probably made her ultimately undeserving of quite such a horrifying fate.
