What was wrong with It Follows? Teens battling an unkillable force they don't understand, they come up with a plan, plan doesn't work, they think they killed it, they didn't. It's like how the teens in movies try and kill Freddy or Jason.
Everything after Anderton inadvertently murders Leo Crowe is so fucking bad. Like, just the absolute worst Spielberg tendencies wrapped up neatly in one final act that feels so wrong for a movie of this type. Anderton proves that the system doesn't work ... there is a 'minority report', human have free will and can choose. Their actions aren't predetermined. Anderton and his wife make amends and she ends up pregnant. The Precogs live out their days peacefully on a little house on a prairie. What a false and pat piece of shit ending
The ending was a dream. In addition to the warden's quote, the screen literally fades to white after they halo Anderton. It was a brillant move.
yea, i thought i wanted some answers, until i got them, then i didn't want them anymore
Come on, man. This is Spielberg we're talking about here. Where is the tip-off to the audience that none of this was real?
this is one of the best owns i have ever seenLike the literal guy screaming to the audience "They Say you have VISIONS, that your life flashes before your eyes that ALL YOUR DREAMS ... come true"
Holy shit I want to kick Spielberg in the nuts for AI so hard.
The Devil Inside ends in a cliffhanger that cuts to black, says 'the mystery was never solved', then a URL pops up that leads you to a site that advertises the movie.
That's the end.
There's a psychological thriller/horror film called Pet which released some years ago which if not for the ending I would have regarded in the same breath as Alien/T1/Carpenter's The Thing.
It was that close to being perfect.
It explains all your complaints about the ending being wrapped up with a neatly tied bow on top.It's really not. It's a bullshit internet theory desperately trying to make sense of s bad ending
It was a full fledged theatrical release too. A full on movie with a ton of advertising. So as you can imagine, people were less than thrilled in the screening I went to.
Same, I don't get the hate
So so sick and tired of vague horror movie endings. I am a big horror movie buff and there is nothing worse than a vague ending. Its the ultimate let down for me. I much prefer solid explanations like Us, Get Out and VVitch. Each of these movies falls apart under logic, but they feel complete. They arent supposed to be reality, they require you to suspend your disbelief and go along for the ride. But they offer a complete picture of an alternate reality.The "rules" for Us when fully explained fully broke the movie for me. They make absolutely no sense. It would have been better to leave it vague than try to explain it the way they did.
Robert Rodriguez is such a hack.
Ain't a thing about the movie is fully explained. The only one that tells a story is a unreliable narrator due to the story of the filmThe "rules" for Us when fully explained fully broke the movie for me. They make absolutely no sense. It would have been better to leave it vague than try to explain it the way they did.
I was surprised at how quick it seemed to moving at the beginning.Once Hemsworth arrives the movie goes in the tank, and I like Hemsworth.
Goddamn that ending is great. Movie version loses that, and the fact that Robert was learning on his own and not already a top tier scientist.I Am Legend was worse, because the book already had an all-time great ending and they just cast it aside for a bad ending.
I thought Glass was great until I realized that it was almost over and that they weren't going beyond that parking lot and that Mr Glass was actually a clueless dolt who had very little idea what he was doing but was saved by the utter incompetence of everyone else on earth.
It's really not. It's a bullshit internet theory desperately trying to make sense of s bad ending
And both movies were bad.

I loved Us because it felt complete. I feel like too many times directors use vague or open ended endings as a crutch and it is especially overused in the horror genre.
