I feel like Coldplay just had to hurry it out and couldn't write a good end to the album. Its not their best album but it is still great Coldplay music.
4/5 stars.

Well, I know that the word "great" is subjective, but I can't for the life of me divine any sense whatsoever from the lyrics to "Paradise":
"When she was just a girl / She expected the world / But it flew away from her reach / And the bullets catch in her teeth"
I think my accusation of rhyming for rhyme's sake is justified. What tense is it supposed to be in anyway? The song is insipid enough anyway without this kind of sloppy, careless songwriting.
I do agree with you on two things: that the ending is rushed and that it is not their best album.
