I don't know!
First of all, I liked the movie, I watched because of Zoey Deutch since I adore Vampire Academy, and I'm glad I did, but I just want to talk about the ending.
"Samantha dies saving Juliet and by that ends the cycle".
It sounds good, but I have to ask again, why? A lot of people (me included) probably thought that saving Juliet will be "the endgame", but how Samantha knew that from the information she had and how she figured that she herself has to die? And did she really save her? Juliet was suicidal, May be if she had convinced her not kill herself, then we can say that she really saved her (Although Juliet seemed moved by what Samantha did).
But what's important is why this life is more important than the other one. Both of them are young, both deserve a second chance, and mainly the movie wasn't about sacrifice, Samantha's journey wasn't about sacrifice.
Samantha wasn't selfish and need to sacrifice her life so we can say "she learned her lesson", she was self involved,may be apathetic, and during the movie she grew up, she began to see, understand and empathize with people round her. Her journey shouldn't have ended that way.
