Knowing is a good one and I will also add Pay it Forward. There was ABSOLUTELY NO reason for Hayley Joel Osment's character to die in that movie. What had been a great movie was completely ruined by that. Another stinker that comes to mind is Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married, Too (the second one)? Awful, awful, awful movie.
The Forgotten it was such a great movie until they revealed the aliens... totally ruined the movie for me
First one I thought of too. One of my least favorite Coen movies because of the ending. I will also repeat Contact, which wasn't very good anyway, but the ending made it all worse. Likewise, Mission to Mars really sucked and then the ending was extra sucky. I was so mad at how bad that movie sucked that I took a walk around the block to cool down and then paid to go back into the theater to see another movie -- any movie -- that wouldn't suck so much. Oh, and did I mention that Mission to Mars was the suckiest suck that ever did suck? From Dusk Till Dawn, though the promising part was only 30 minutes, and then it takes a left turn to suck through the last hour. At least it was an unusual way to ruin a movie. I vaguely remember Mary Shelley's Frankenstein decided to completely depart from the book (which is a great book) at the end, thereby ruining it. It wouldn't have been so bad if they didn't bill it as Mary Shelley's. I know there are so many more that I just can't think of.
That movie where the Trees were killing people. by M. knight? shamalaylalalalallalalalallaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalalalallalallala....a.
I loved the ending for No Country For Old Men. I guess I'm in the minority on this board. Can't think of a movie, so I'll vote for Lost.
A.I. Artificial Intelligence...I swear, I thought that movie could have ended 2-3 times before it actually did
Four Feathers remake. It would've been a great movie if they ended it 15 minutes shorter but it just dragged on and on.
That is one for me. The problem was that up until the last 30 minutes it was Kubrick and then Spielberg just had to make it warm and fuzzy. Another one is Signs. I thought it had a great creepy vibe and then the ending just seems hackneyed and forced where Shymalan just decides he needs to tie everything up. The Matrix: Revolutions It wasn't nearly as good as the first and not even as the second so as an ending to the series it was bad but even for a mediocre movie that ending was awful. Blade Runner; theatrical release Ridley Scott was forced to take on an ending that he hated so much that unlike most director's cuts Scott's version was shorter than the theatrical release.
