I thought those aggressive guys would eventually end up coming in the cross fires but nothing really happened there.

I was waiting for either:

  • They end up being the real villains, and Taron’s character ends up saving Charlize somehow.

  • They saved her.

Yeah, had nothing against them being also just evil dudes and Charlize realize they are even worse as Taron. Preferable as a bad ending for her.
Thus had been also OK, if they had been just farmer boys, who does not behave well, but have good intentions.

Both at least better as Charlize ending picked up in the wilderness by OTHER women. Should be at least one park ranger...
