There's nothing quite as frustrating as a bad movie ending. Failure to stick that landing in the final act can totally ruin an otherwise great film, or give us one more reason to hate one that was already a dud. Here's a look at some of the most annoying movie endings in recent memory. And it should go without saying, but spoilers ahead
The Matrix Revolutions | 0:23
X-Men: The Last Stand | 0:59
Signs | 1:44
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 | 2:43
Now You See Me | 3:27
I Am Legend | 4:15
Man of Steel | 5:14
Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King | 6:06

“On Her Majesty’s Secret Service.”
You just don’t kill off Diana Rigg!
Yes, and I remember how the founders of Hollywood, a full century ago and ever since, have been adherents of satanic New Age ideas and how they have incrementally introduced into movies the subtle seeds of their lying doctrines.

I seriously doubt that reading the rest of this thread will provide a better comment...
Completely agree. Avatar was awful. A replay/combo rippoff of same tired theme like Dances with Wolves or the kids story Fern Gulley.
Matrix Revolutions? What was supposed to happen? Stupid.
Return of the King? If they had followed the book it would have been a four plus hour movie. Again, stupid.
“The Man in the Bigh Castle” Season 1. It had the trite ending that would have earned you an “F” in High School English Composition.
I will add one, Hannibal. Ending should have followed the book in this case. It changed everything and not for the better.
I hate spending two hours watching a really good movie to have it flop over dead at the ending. It's like the writer or director just wanted to get it over with and/or they ran out of creative bullets and were shooting blanks by the time the end was upon them.
Ruins the whole entertainment experience sometimes.
You'll love her "death" in Team America.
THE MIST
I have hated that movie from the day I have seen it and the ending still infuriates me.
It hurts and angers me and I wish I had never seen it.
Much of Cormac McCarthy’s works are this way- Dark, Violent, Foreboding with no happy ending and usually no resolution.
I can’t watch that puppet show. I hated puppets even when I was a kid..............except for SuperCar...............
So here’s one so everyone can laugh at me...I won’t even pretend you are laughing with me.
Our family, me, wife, two teenage boys are in the Hobbit 1st movie a few years ago...I’m so taken away I didn’t realize the movie was nearing the end, and since we never watch the news no one told me they hacked a 289pp book into 3 movies...the movie ends and it is so shocking to me, I said aloud, “you gotta be kidding!”...I was really loud and several in the packed theater looked at me like I had two heads. My oldest to my right leaned in and said, “you mean you didn’t know?”
So that is my personal worst movie ending of all time.
Umm, remember Lost?
I thought Inception was Chris Nolan’s best work. It’s not an easy film to wrap your head around and it rewards multiple views. It raises profound questions about the nature of consciousness and reality, it plays with the theme of redemption and it is both a tender and tragic love story.
In real life, Winger hates Geer.
I cry every time and I really hope that was a stunt double Chevey Nova fill in
Yes, the reality is that nothing is even close.
