I just saw the movie this weekend.
While, I too felt that the ending was a little bare. However,
I think the reason for that was that it showed that even though
Paulie had his thumb cut off, he didnt learn his leason and
got himself into trouble. I thought Eric Roberts should have
at least been nominated for an Oscar for Star-80. And I think
his performance in Pope was much better with more dimensions.
The scene after his thumb is cut and he goes to his cousin's
apartment in VERY GOOD!! Eric's acting in that scene alone
should be enough for an Oscar nomination.

My rating : 3 1/2 stars out of 4.
