People Are Sharing The Movie Endings That Were So Bad They Ruined An Otherwise Good Film, And I'm Curious To Know If You Agree
Here are some of the best answers, and FYI, some posts have been edited for clarity!
Oh, and you should probably know that there are some spoilers ahead!
1.'Hancock. The first 2/3 was a not bad look at the idea of a being with superpowers who had no interest in being a superhero or villain. Then the movie took a 136 degree turn into some really weird tacked-on plot twists.'
— The1Ylrebmik
2.'Signs. I mean, those aliens came billions of miles, conquered the whole planet in a blink of an eye, and didn't realize they couldn't handle water, one of the most common things on the planet? Same with War of the Worlds and a virus, both were nonsensical.'
— bevymartbc
3.'I remember at the end of Kingsman: The Secret Service, they make a big deal about this dude fucking a girl in the ass as his reward for saving her. It's so awkward and they put so much focus on it. Totally unnecessary and yet I guess the writers, producers, and director fought for it to be in the final cut for some goddamn reason. Did they have a raunchy joke quota that they needed to fulfill?'
— JacobStills
4.'Grease. Why does the car fly?'
— DependentSelect6973
5.'Unpopular opinion regarding a classic Hollywood film: My Fair Lady. I absolutely detested Henry Higgins, and when Eliza came back after he admits (only to himself) how important she is to him, he puts on his condescending act and demands she finds his slippers as she smiles at him. Yuck.'
— GrouchyBear_99
6.'Now You See Me, it was great fun until the reveal, which makes even less sense the more you think about it.'
— shemjaza
7.'As a kid, I loved all the Oz books, where Oz was real. I never forgave the movie The Wizard of Oz for having it all turn out to be a dream. What was the point of it all then?'
— Garbage-Bear
8.'X-Men Origins: Wolverine. First two acts were good, the third act and the screwed up version of 'Deadpool' ruined the overall film.'
— Bigtony7877
9.'Personally, for me it was Longlegs. I was so looking forward to it, and thought it was really good until the very ending.'
— streetxtrash
10.'Glass, dud ending to a decent trilogy. You can defeat Bruce Willis with a… puddle? There's a secret organization that gets rid of people with powers? What?'
— GrumpyOldMan59
11.'The Lilo & Stitch remake going against the message of Ohana.'
— MattWolf96
12.'Joker: Folie à Deux. I was enjoying it (yes, even the musical parts) and wondering why everyone was hating on it. Then it got to the final act, and I understood.'
— Maxhousen
13.'Ocean's 8. All these awesome, capable women, and you get a dude to come in at the end and do the actual stealing? And to top it off, you only get away with it because James Corden decides to look the other way? No thank you.'
— dumblesmurf
14.'Yesterday. Not well known because the ending sucked so much it didn't end up being popular, but it was that movie about the guy who wakes up one day and is the only one who remembers the Beatles. Such a creative premise, and it built a really interesting narrative, that then has the most boring, poorly-written, unsatisfying ending. Ruins the whole thing.'
— NoButThanksAnyway
15.'Interstellar totally flummoxed me on the romantic relationship at the end. They hated each other for the whole movie, and now they're together because they are the highest-paid actor and actress on call, and the producers said the flick needs a romance or something?'
— PublicCraft3114
16.'Life of Pi. 'Did it actually happen? Idk but it made for a cool story' wtf no, don't make me watch a whole movie then end it as if everything was made up.'
— peanut6547
17.'Sinister's ending and final act was so bad that it removed every ounce of rewatchability for me. It took away the unsettling tone of the tapes and it was just cringey seeing the kids in bad makeup dance around the house. Such a shame. It was a really good horror movie up until the reveal.'
— Queef-Elizabeth
18.'Source Code. Overturned the whole conceit of the movie for the sake of a happy ending.'
— third-time-charmed
19.'Gravity. I was buying the whole movie, all the way, even as she splash landed in the lake. But after all she went through, to just get up and walk away ruined the whole thing. IMO it would have been a better movie if she would have died at the bottom of the lake cuz she couldn't get out of her suit in time. At least that ending I could have respected.'
— IndependentFalse4270
20.'I loved Conclave up until the end, it just seemed so unnecessary to add that to the story I guess. Like it served no real purpose to the story or anything. Just came out of nowhere.'
— mrlurker666
And finally:
21.'I've never been more pissed off at the ending of a movie than I was when I watched Promising Young Woman. That movie was super interesting and then it decided to end in the shittiest, most anticlimactic way possible, and before the credits even rolled all I could think was: 'Well, this is the worst thing I've seen in years and I'll never watch this shitty ass movie again.' It was and I haven't. Fuck that movie.'

Owner Believed Her Dog Was Husky Mix—Then DNA Revealed a Surprise
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. When Sarah Alvarez adopted her dog from a Maryland animal rescue, she was told that he likely had husky in him. But after a DNA test revealed he was 100 percent collie, the unexpected result quickly gained attention online. Alvarez shared her discovery in a Reddit post on July 25 under the username u/Same_Parsley565, where she included photos of her dog, Cid, and a snapshot of the DNA results. "Shelter told me he was supposed to have husky in him," Alvarez wrote in a caption alongside an image showing the breed test result: "100% Collie." The post has since received more than 2,300 upvotes, sparking laughter among users charmed by the dog's unique appearance and the surprising revelation. Alvarez told Newsweek that she and her family adopted Cid after fostering him through the Last Chance Animal Rescue in Maryland. Alvarez said that the rescue had noted that Cid's mother was a collie, while the father was unknown and could possibly have been a husky. That possibility led her to seek clarity through a DNA test. Cid the collie rests on the floor. Cid the collie rests on the floor. u/same_parsley565 "We fostered Cid for two weeks, and he was such a sweetheart, we decided to fully adopt him," Alvarez said. "As Cid grew up, we were curious as to how much of a collie he really was because he really looked 100 percent collie. "So, I bought an Embark DNA test kit and sent in his DNA. After a few weeks, we got the results and were pleasantly surprised that he was indeed purebred." Alvarez's photos showed the playful, expressive 1-year-old dog that did not immediately resemble the sleek profile of a husky—something that made the reveal all the more entertaining to readers. "He's a very sweet and mischievous boy and really loves playing," Alvarez said. "He loves to annoy his big brother, Freddie, and play tug with us. "His favorite toys are rope toys and he chews them to pieces," the owner added. Despite being born with a condition called "cow hocked" legs—a structural issue that affects movement and may be the result of inbreeding—Cid is still active and playful. His littermates, Alvarez said, also appear to be doing well with their new families. "He has difficulty jumping or doing anything strenuous with his hind legs," Alvarez added. "Regardless, he still loves running around the yard and chasing me down." Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share?

Bride furious after groom invites parents to crash honeymoon
She's ready to say 'I Do' — but not to the groom's mommy and daddy, too. After swapping rings, the cherry on top of most holy matrimonies is a hot honeymoon holiday for the enamored newlyweds. However, that sweet escape can quickly turn sour if the in-laws tag along, so fears one freaked-out bride-to-be. 4 A 22-year-old bride-to-be took to Reddit, begging for help after learning that her future in-laws planned to crash her honeymoon. Getty Images/iStockphoto 'We're getting married in [November] on [a] property that my [fiancé], his sister and their parents own together,' said the distressed damsel, 22, to Reddit's anonymous 'Am I The A—hole' community. 'Everyone is leaving the day after the wedding so we can honeymoon for a week there,' she added. 'That is, everyone except his parents.' While the Gen Z admittedly 'loves' her future mother- and father-in-law — who live on the 40-acre property she and the groom, 24, also call home — she's not too keen on them cramping her style during their post-vows vacation. 4 The Gen Zers, who already share a 40-acre property with her mother- and father-in-law, says she doesn't want them to join her and the groom on their romantic trip. Take Production – Her objection isn't rooted in bratty bridezilla behavior. Instead, it's all about setting boundaries. Unfortunately for young couples tying the knot, Gen X and Baby Boomer parents are now horning in on their honeymoon fun en masse. It's a phenomenon that's rising as a cringy, controversial travel trend. And although having elderly chaperones on a romantic getaway might not be as egregious as a 'toxic' mother-of-the-groom who wears an all-white gown on her son's big day, or one who splashes the bride with red paint, it's still being deemed a 'red flag' by whistleblowers online. 4 The bride-to-be says she and her fiance argued about the issue until he ultimately 'refused' to discuss it any further. Getty Images/iStockphoto 'If [the 22-year-old] marries this guy, she will spend her entire life either with her in-laws, or arguing with her 'husband' about her in-laws. He isn't mature enough to be married as he is still his parents' child,' cautioned a concerned commenter, regarding the groom's unwillingness to disinvite his folks to the honeymoon. In her digital cry for help, the beleaguered bride explained, 'When I found out they were planning on staying, I told my [fiancé] I didn't want them there.' 'He said it wasn't a big deal. I told him it was weird and I wanted it to just be us,' she continued. 'I said he needs to tell his parents to leave at the same time everyone else does,' said the Zoomer. 'He told me no since his parents are part owners (even though his sister is leaving with everyone else).' 4 Redditors rallied around the soon-to-be-bride, telling her that the groom's allegiance to his parents is a major 'red flag.' Elnur – The stalemate left the nearly-wed feeling 'invalidated,' prompting her to wonder if 'I crossed a line by telling him he needs to set boundaries with his parents.' But social media supporters assured the heartbroken belle that her would-be Prince Charming is being childish. 'This is a red flag [there] will always be 2 extras in your marriage and you will NEVER be a COUPLE,' warned a Redditor. 'Don't do this to yourself! Life is way too short.' 'Why does HE want his parents on his honeymoon?,' questioned a skeptic. 'If your partner doesn't want to be alone with you on your honeymoon, they just aren't that into you.' And a no-nonsense critic encouraged the bride to surprise her guy with a spicy ultimatum, suggesting she say, 'I plan on us having sex three times a day for the entire week. Would you rather do that or have your parents there?' 'Because you can't have both.'
