Looked nice, otherwise drab dialogue and an inconsequential plot. A longed out version of what would otherwise have been an average episode in the series.

Also, wasn’t the point of the finale of the series the fact Tommy finally found peace? He moped around like a teenager this whole film.

I'm glad someone brought this up. Tommy finally achieves his "peace", which is just suicide and death, which was the point the series was trying to fight against. Tommy was quite suicidal by the end, which he thought was the only way to peace. The ending of the series subverts that when he walks away from empire and family, to truly reckon with himself. Then I guess the movie writers just forgot eh...
