[Movies] Films that start well and end terribly

[xylophone]

Agreed! Bane was so badass one of the greatest movie villains of all time imo. BUT the way he died was lame! wich destroyed the ending of the movie.

The thing I didn't like about Bane was how when he first fights Batman he seems to have a pally bubble on or something, Batman, an expert martial artist, lands several solid hits that don't seem to do anything. Then when they fight at the end of the movie it's like he had Forebearance.

His mask numbs him to pain. Second time the mask was getting focused.

Prometheus Rant

I'm sorry, but you have no idea what you're talking about. First and foremost, I fail to see how Prometheus takes place in the future when they clearly show you the year, and it clearly takes place just a teeeensy weensy bit before the first Alien movie. Also the AvP movies are not canon, this has already been explained in-depth all across the internet.

There were no aliens in the original Predator movies. Sure, there was an alien skull in the trophy case, but it was more an easter egg than anything. Besides, do you REALLY think, back in the 80s, they were worried about keeping the canonical history of this franchise organized and without error? I'm gonna go with no.

Yes, Prometheus leaves a lot of questions...I wonder why that is? Oh, because 1) Ridley Scott is an amazing director, and 2) There are going to be SEQUELS? Damn dude, you just went on a total rant without knowing a damned thing about what you were ranting about.

The Last Exorcism started amazingly well, but the ending was beyond stupid. It COMPLETELY ruined the film for me.

Buzz kill Lol but really it made sense to me and i like to think of them all connected and so do others. So to me what i said stands and if my imagination can go that off about one thing that's amazing. Still good movie just ended badly to me.

Prometheus.

It started sort of ok but as soon as they landed on that moon, everything went downhills. It's as if the script suddenly decided to commit suicide and everything that was left was what someones 14-year-old kid wrote. It even has giant squids. For a movie that could have been awesome, it was pretty tragic imo.

[pyrostick1515]

Hancock definately

The Village is the first that came to my mind

His mask keeps the pain at bay it flows with some sort pain releaving gass. Batman finds that out in that pit prison, in the second fight batman breaks the mask. And batman was out of shape in the first fight cause he had not train or fight in 8 years.

Agreed, was just about to mention this too. It had potential to actually be something original and it took that opportunity and flushed it down the toilet and decided to make yet another Alien-like movie we didn't need. Glad I didn't go see it at the theater I would have been pissed.

[rayden54]

I agree. A.I. ending seemed to be fully integrated/consistent with the film. Is there a book that it clashes with or something that turns some people off?

Never seen it. Damnit, now I'm intruiged!

I've heard people "blame" the ending on Spielberg while they "credit" the rest of the movie to Kubrick.

The Prestige. When did it start being a sci-fi flick?

The movie was so different from the comic. In the comic bane put batman thru a long grueling ordeal with his former enemies and then fought a weakened batman.

[cubby]

There are quite a few but the latest one I can think of is Looper
It started out better than I expected but the last 20ish minutes where going from meh to worse until the end ofc wich ruined the whole movie for me.

I seriously expected he'd shoot the kid in the face

How did you not like the ending?

Well i havent seen it but it just looks like a retelling of pinocchio in a modern setting from reading the plot synopsis on imdb.

I wouldn't trust IMDB to summarize a movie like that. Give it a shot, you might like it. I thought it was fantastic.

I liked the ending to AI.

[An-Tuirseach]

Any M. Night Shalamalamadingdong film other than 6th Sense. Then again, they usually don't start that well, either.

Law-Abiding Citizen

The premise was ok, but it felt like they wrote themselves into a corner.

am i the only one who was hopin gerard butler would have killed everyone? including jamie foxx?

hmm, recent movies would be sort of hard. babylon ad's ending was kinda shitty imo.

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith was great at the start with the Battle of Coruscant but then it all went downhill
