Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, review [SPOILERS]

First of all, I want to say the movie it self as a film was very good. But as an ending to those beautiful six seasons, it was the worst thing I have ever seen in my life. The plot is so forced and has practically no correlation with the season 6 ending at all.

In the ending of season 6, Tommy obviously finds out about the conspiracy against him and he "comes back from the dead", even though he never did kill himself. It was perfectly bound for him to re-enter the political world and plot his revenge, or rather continue with his undermining of the Nazis and the IRA. Especially because of all the buildup for multiple seasons slowly showing that the Mosley situation runs deeper and deeper to the level where actions could completely change the direction of the world. And then for the "epic" finale (the movie), it is all dropped and not even mentioned. Jack Nelson slowly showing to become more dangerous and an amazing villain in the show, also. Just gone in the movie.

Ada, who we have been with for six seasons and who has had such a big role in Tommy's life, getting killed by some random man who was introduced less than an hour ago, is so stupid.

And also, the death of Tommy Shelby. What the hell was that? He set up the whole plan and of all the ways he could think of killing Beckett, he chose to shoot him in a moving car? And why did he freeze?

The whole idea of a random new character coming in and killing a major character (Ada), and also being the one to (technically) kill Tommy, is so stupid from a plot perspective. Again, the movie itself is good on it's own as I said, but so many times through the movie did I think to myself, "six seasons built up, for this?" Tommy's death should have been either by himself or by Arthur, no one else would be suited to kill him if you follow the plot of the six seasons.

Maybe I am seeing some things wrong and I would be happy for someone to make me understand certain things if you're disagreeing, rather than just downvoting me.
