Right? Where’s the resolution? You just finish the movie feeling like the main character is an even bigger piece of shit than you realized? That’s… almost the exact opposite of a hallmark movie - you need everything tied up in a pretty little bow by the end
It turns out his brother didn’t die but was so close to dead they thought he was, he makes a miraculous recovery, and they play Minecraft happily ever after?
It’s the protagonist’s backstory. In the movie he tries to help two brothers reconcile and when they ask him why he is trying so hard he tells about this story and that he tries to make sure others around him don’t make the same mistake as him and suffer from life long regret. Then the two brothers make him honorary big brother.

Yeah, that’s more like some Star Wars level plot twist that turns the character Sith or so.
Sounds like Love Actually
