The movie was boring as hell, but the ending was just terrible.

That's because they ran out of money. It was so over budget they had to just end it.

You've got to see the Director's Cut. It makes a lot more sense.

To quote Roger Ebert's review:

"Most movies with a zillion clues have the good manners to supply a couple that are helpful. This movie's villain appears so arbitrarily he must have been a temp worker, in for the day."

in that same line, VANILLA SKY

hey, let's make this really intriguing and funky movie, and then at the end, throw a change-up pitch that nobody expects... so we're zipping by this movie, anxiously waiting for all the pieces to come together to stun us with the ending...suddenly this Life Extension cr8p comes in and tries to explain for everything? stupid

I hated the ending to A Perfect Storm...it would have been so much nicer if everyone hadn't of died...but oh well. Lamest ending for me goes to Stephen King's IT....the spider thing just didn't do it for me. Maybe the whole movie sucks, I wouldn't know because I haven't watched it since I was like 8...but even then I realized the ending totally blew.
 
A little note for Queasy: Just because the word "like" was in the first line, doesn't make it a metaphor... 😉
 
You guys are all wrong the worst ending ever and i ever from now til the end of time is

!!!!American Pie 2!!!!

Come on guys back me up here. Tell me you would bang Nadia til she screamed for mercy instead of the band chick. Guys like that ruin it for men.

Movies based on actual events are usually constrained by what actiually happened. 😉

Spielberg is the king of lame "Hollywood" endings. AI and Minority Report both ran for 20+ minutes too long (and please, I know there are legions of rabid Spielberg fans waiting to jump all over me for "not understanding" the meaning of the AI ending....give it a rest, will ya?).

We got bored and walked out when the aliens showed up. AI = teh gay
