When we invest our time and emotions in watching a movie, we expect it to provide us with a complete experience, where the ending is the ultimate prize that leaves us satisfied or surprised. But there are movies that, despite their exciting beginning and suspenseful events, ended with an ending that spoiled everything. Let's talk about this disappointing feeling and how it affects our overall experience.

For example, the movie "I Am Legend", was an amazing journey with a great performance from Will Smith, and a tense script. However, the original ending of the movie, which chose sacrifice and self-sacrifice, felt less impactful compared to the alternative ending that was more profound and connected to the movie's idea of humanity.

Also, the movie "The Mist", which presented a shocking and unexpected ending. While some praised the boldness of the ending, others felt that it caused tremendous emotional frustration, as it could have been less harsh and left a little hope for the audience.

Then we have movies like Game of Thrones (despite being a TV series), where the ending was a disappointment to an audience who invested years of their lives in a complex plot and amazing characters, only for the ending to fall short of expectations.

Can a movie ending change your mind completely? Some may argue that the ending doesn’t detract from the quality of the movie as a whole, while others see it as the main factor in the success of the experience.

What do you think? What movies did you feel were great but ruined everything in the ending? Share your thoughts and experiences with us!
