Since we all love watching movies, I want to ask something- how do you describe a perfect movie? What matters to you the most in a film? Is it the destination, journey, or characters? Does the movie need to have a good ending? Well, if you are a sucker for great endings, you would not disagree with the list mentioned below.
Here we have compiled a list of movies with endings so terrible, they ruined the entire movie. Like c’mon who becomes a flash drive or who can reverse the time by flying backward around the earth? These endings surely sound too weird to be true but well, they ruined the entire movie.
1.
Signs.
You’re telling me that this alien species that are vulnerable to water was trying to invade a planet that is 70% water?
2.
Lucy. I hate that movie.
It’s a really good concept and movie until the very. It tells the story about a girl that is kidnapped and used as a drug mule for this new drug, but the bag inside her leaks, and she gets overdosed. This doesn’t kill her though, she’s now able to use more than 10% of her brain (which I know is complete bullsh*t cuz we use 100% of our brain but not at the same time) and gets superpowers. Then for some reason, she needs to take more of the drug to reach complete usage of her brain and, when she does, she becomes a flash drive. A FLASH DRIVE. SHE BECOMES A FLASH DRIVE
3.
City Of Angels, where Meg Ryan (human) dies in a bike accident right after Nicolas Cage (angel) decides to give up immortality to be with her
4.
I gotta go with the flying car in Grease
5.
Indiana Jones and crystal skull. Big bloody spaceship just coming out the ground like that. That whole film was a farce actually.
6.
Superman (1978), reverses time by flying backward around the earth.
7.
I Am Legend.
Stupid test audience approved happy ending
8.
Ready player one
the guy is the gameworld every day all day long because his life sucks and that’s understandable
the movie ends with him getting the company, and one of the rules he implements is that the game world gets shut off 1 or 2 days every week… AFTER HE GOT A GIRLFRIEND! what an unbelievable ass that guy is, he was literally online every single day when his life was [miserable], but now that he has a girlfriend he shuts it off so people can ”enjoy life” you didn’t seem to enjoy it in your abuse household earlier in the movie…
9.
Spielberg’s version of War of the Worlds, somehow Robbie is still alive and waiting for them in Boston. Not only did the circumstances make his survival virtually impossible, but his character was so annoying that the twist of him being alive just destroyed all my previous satisfaction in him being deceased
10.
Downsizing. A great concept that could’ve been done without the forced love story.
11.
Hancock. Loved the premise and seeing Hancock start as this sarcastic, alcoholic, and bitter hero who’s hated by everyone and then turn into an actual hero who people look up to and respect is touching. The PR angle for a superhero movie was interesting and unique. But then all of that is ruined by the lover’s twist. I’m fine with either the superhero PR angle or the tragic lover’s angle, but they’re way too different, and the latter is introduced too suddenly. Hancock really feels like two separate movies stitched together
12.
The Aladdin remake. I was beyond disappointed to not see a battle between Jafar as a snake and Aladdin. Nobody asked for the giant nameless parrot to chase them through the city. No one. Give me a snake battle
13.
Frozen II. I don’t think it was nice of Elsa to miss her sister’s coronation! She wasn’t even doing anything important
14.
The Circle…seemed to be a film warning of the dangers of sharing too much online, only to do A COMPLETE 180 on the message at the end!
15.
The Breakfast Club.
The premise of the whole film is, “teenagers can be judgy and awful to each other, but everyone is fighting their own battles so we should try to be nicer to each other”
Then they give the weird quirky girl a makeover to look more like the normal girl, people partner up in order of attractiveness and the nerdy dude is left on his own…
16.
Batman v Superman was pretty weak. Hyped up a big fight throughout the movie which was fizzled out to some other bs.
17.
Toy Story 4, almost as if Woody had a complete personality shift
18.
Passengers. It could have been an amazing sci-fi movie where Jennifer Lawrence was forced to make the same decision Chris Pratt’s Marvel character Star-Lord did. Instead, they went for a happily ever after
19.
My Sisters Keeper. Especially since I read the book. I very nearly threw my remote at the TV I was so pissed
20.
The ending of the horror movie 1408 where he dies. The version I saw was way creepier where he lived and they were going through the box of stuff and found the tape recording he had used while in the hotel room and they heard his daughter on the tape. That was a damn good ending
21.
22.
The very last moment of The Crimes of Grindelwald. Hey, let’s upheave tons of established lore in the last 30 seconds! The [hell] was that?!
23.
24.
Click. A fantastic movie about how life can pass you by if you let it and the consequences of your actions. If they ended it in the hospital as he was dying, it would have been a fantastic, insightful movie. But no, let’s let him rewind and live happily ever after.
25.
“500 Days of Summer. Ooh, he met ‘Autumn.’ How quirkyyyyy. Lame.”
26.
A Simple Favor. It was all mysterious with some good twists, then she just gets hit by a car and the moms group is like, ‘Don’t mess with moms’ or some sh*t? The ending felt like it was meant for a different movie
27.
I hate the ending of a classic 1940s film called Gentleman’s Agreement. Gregory Peck plays a journalist who pretends to be Jewish in order to write an article about antisemitism. His girlfriend knows about the ruse and as the story unfolds, it becomes clear that she’s a closet antisemite. They argue about this but in the end, he stays with her.
28.
Bridge to Terabithia broke me as a child. No one can watch that movie/read the book more than once. I went into the theater as an 8-year-old expecting a fun fantasy movie and that is not what I got.
29.
Justice League, Superman gets resurrected and immediately beats the sh*t out of Steppenwolf. The conflict was just gone, the heroes had no difficulty after he came in
30.
Zootopia. The teeth for all the animals had been spot on (appropriate and detailed morphology for each taxon) but the final bit where they have Flash open his mouth revealed they gave him additional and inappropriate teeth for a sloth. As a slothologist and mammalogist, this was a huge letdown and betrayal.
