Joe discovers Emily's surviving daughter with dragonfly birthmark
Joe jumps into river and enters submerged bus wreckage
The film plummets from a strong journey to Venezuela sequence to its weakest point with the widely criticized underwater bus scene, then rebounds dramatically with the surprising child reveal.
Dragonfly follows a consistent moderate trajectory through its supernatural mystery elements, with reviewers appreciating the atmosphere and Kevin Costner's grieving performance despite some awkward dialogue. The film stumbles badly with an implausible underwater sequence that critics universally panned, but recovers powerfully with a genuinely surprising and emotionally satisfying ending that many found touching and unexpected.
