This time, we examine the ending of the Hulu movie Boss Level.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Joe Carnahan<\/strong>\u2019s <\/span><strong><i>Boss Level<\/i><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> doesn\u2019t attempt to depart from the norms of the prolific subgenre of time-loop movies. Nor does it pretend that it has a particularly fresh or unique take on the concept. Instead, it leans into the trademarks of the category \u2013 the stuff that really gets people excited: a high-concept plot, over-the-top and well-choreographed action scenes, and a whole lot of violence. The result is a film that feeds into our every movie-watching craving while emphasizing the value of cherishing relationships and rejecting cynicism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For ex Delta Force agent Roy Pulver (<strong>Frank Grillo<\/strong>), it\u2019s easy to have a negative outlook on life. He doesn\u2019t even get a chance to sip on his morning coffee or crack open a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>paper before he has blood-thirsty assassins at his door wielding pretty much any weapon you can imagine. And, if that wasn\u2019t bad enough, it happens every single day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most frustrating parts of Roy\u2019s situation \u2014 if getting your head cut off before noon on multiple occasions doesn\u2019t quite do it for you \u2014 is the fact that he doesn\u2019t know what everyone is so darn upset with him about. After <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">many<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> days of trial and error, he finds out that this hellish version of <em>Groundhog Day<\/em> has everything to do with the evil Colonel Clive Ventor (<strong>Mel Gibson<\/strong>).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The day before his time loop began, Roy was called by his ex-girlfriend Jemma (<strong>Naomi Watts<\/strong>) into her super-secret, high-tech, government-secret workplace under the false pretense of applying for a job. It soon became clear, though, that they were not hiring, and Jemma actually brought Roy in to warn him about imminent mass destruction that was slated to start with the very machine she is building. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She took some samples of his hair and blood, and, without him knowing, planted him in the time-bending machine she is building that will apparently usher in the apocalypse. Hopefully, after reliving the day enough times, Roy will be able to figure out what the heck is going on, she thinks. And then he\u2019ll figure out how to stop the planet from being wiped out. Got it so far?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Surprisingly, Col. Ventor doesn\u2019t like that his evil plan is being tampered with. So, he sends a band of sadistic assassins after Roy in his time loop to stop him from doing so as soon as he wakes up in the morning. With nothing but time on his hands, Roy tries every trick in the book to defeat these bloodthirsty killers. But every day ends the same: in a pool of blood.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lot<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of trial and error, Roy discovers that there is a way to save Jemma\u2019s life, and he knows she\u2019ll shut down the machine herself if she lives to see the day. So, he goes to the lab and, indeed, manages to save her life, and she subsequently puts him in the machine and launches him back into real-time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Roy wakes up the next morning on the same day he\u2019s been stuck in, but now, time is moving forward again. All he has to do, he explains, is survive the day. Then the film comes to an end, but just before the credits roll, Roy flashes a cheeky smile indicating that he will indeed beat the Boss Level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the surface, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boss Level <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ends the same way a fun yet hollow video <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a> might. Roy has beaten all but one level of his personal game and unlocked the most challenging one of all. It is a fun, lighthearted ending to an entertaining story. But on second look, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boss Level<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> carries a number of important \u2013 and timely \u2013 messages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyone who keeps up to date with new movie releases knows that we\u2019ve been seeing more <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Groundhog Day<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-style movies than ever before. With <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Palm Springs<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Map of Tiny Perfect Things<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and now <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boss Level<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it\u2019s almost hard to keep track. But this isn\u2019t a coincidence. As we come up on the one-year anniversary of quarantine, it\u2019s hard to believe there haven\u2019t been <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">more<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> movies where a character just can\u2019t seem to escape the day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indeed, at the beginning of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boss Level<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Roy approaches his time loop situation the same way most of us approached the gloomy reality of quarantine. His condition is disheartening, depressing, and nothing he does is really of consequence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But at the end of the film, his perspective has changed. He sheds his pessimistic attitude and becomes determined to, literally, solve the world\u2019s problems. Waking up in the morning is no longer a curse, but an opportunity. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boss Level<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> emphasizes the power of a fresh start \u2013 which is something we all could learn to appreciate a little more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And this fresh start mentality doesn\u2019t just apply to Roy defeating those who set out to kill him. Roy and Jemma\u2019s son, Joe (<strong>Rio Grillo<\/strong>), doesn\u2019t know who his father is. Jemma insists that he is too old now to know the truth, but Roy disagrees. He believes that it is never too late to make things right and tell someone you love them, and he turns out to be right about that. In the end, Roy and his son\u2019s relationship is stronger than ever before.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indeed, the end of the film also teaches us that, even amidst defeating mass catastrophes and sword-wielding assassins, we are nothing without the people we love. To sum it up: always tell the people you love them, and never miss an opportunity to start fresh. And if you get to learn some badass sword-fighting moves along the way, well that\u2019s just a plus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch <em>Boss Level<\/em> again (and again?) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hulu.com\/movie\/boss-level-622e81d6-ba3b-47f3-8e78-71fe742ade9f\">on Hulu<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
