Jonathan Rosenbaum
The overall 'philosophical' thrust -- that good guys finish last and that crime does pay -- is designed to make the audience feel very wise, but none of the characters or ideas is allowed to develop beyond its cardboard profile. [More]

Yeah but for him, crime doesn't really pay, because he's never punished for it as he expects to be. In fact he needs to pay the consequences for his actions, in order to validate the religious upbringing that he still so obviously believes in on some level, even though he has long since rejected it. When he doesn't "pay" for his crime, is validates his fear that there is no justice in the universe. Which to him is worse than being brought to justice for his sins.
