The movies was good up until that point, but it didn’t stick the landing. On the other hand, it’s possible that a movie was bad from the start, with the bad finale fitting well. In any case, these are the worst movie endings ever. Regardless of how much we appreciated the remainder of the movie; they all left us with a terrible taste in our mouths.

Here are 10 good movies with terrible endings that you should know if you haven’t watched any of them:
1. LA LA LAND:
The film was filled with romance, singing, and dancing, and then they fell in love. At the end of the film, Mia finally came to Sebastian’s Jazz club with her current husband.
The screen then shows a final dance sequence of Mia fantasizing about her life with Sebastian, only for her to be snapped back to reality. They both chose their career over each other which left the audience heartbroken.
2. 500 days of summer:
The movie started off great, the screenplay and music is quite great. However, the final note is a slap in the face to everyone watching.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s Character meets a new woman after a difficult, unpleasant relationship with a woman named Summer. What’s her name? Of course, it’s autumn. Which made the ending Clichéd.
3. I Am Legend:
In addition to the “Darkseekers,” albino zombie mutants, it comes out that there are a few people left on Earth.
The movie has a director’s cut ending that is actually rather interesting, but in the theatrical edition of “I Am Legend,” Smith’s character develops a cure for the Darkseekers, distributes it to a few individuals, and then dies. Everything is fine after those people deliver it to the military. It’s all a little too neat and a little too lame.
4. Lucy:
The movie was really interesting till the first half, but the ending is absurd and unworkable.
Lucy’s mental capacity reaches 100%, and she…disappears? Or does it transform into a supercomputer? Perhaps a flash drive? All we know is that her voice can be heard on the evil guy’s phone saying that she is “everywhere” at the moment. Yep, it’s as out-of-left-field as it sounds.
5. Birdbox:
Some could argue that Birdbox wasn’t a particularly excellent film, to begin with, but there’s no doubting that it had a major cultural impact.
The whole blindfold thing made sense until Sandra Bullock’s character got caught in the river rapids with two children in tow. Those blindfolds have no chance of staying on. And, if that wasn’t far-fetched enough, the entire trip leads to a blind school, where they take refuge with other survivors, but nothing is addressed. It just makes the whole thing seem kind of pointless.
6. Identity:
The movie begins with ten strangers confined in a hotel, each of whom dies one by one. Is this a murder mystery? Nope! Instead, the characters are all personas inside the mind of a murderer.
Yes, we spent time watching a bunch of individuals who weren’t real die. Which really disappoints the audience and makes the movie a waste of time.
7. The Mist:
Following his failed attempt to flee the titular mist, protagonist David Drayton (Thomas Jane) believes that he and the survivors, including his small son, are better off dead.
He shoots everyone in the car with him who has taken sanctuary with him, and he wants to murder himself as well. Worse, the US Army has swooped in just in time, and the mist has receded, putting an end to all the carnage.
8. Source Code:
The movie is about Captain Colter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) is a man who can inhabit other people’s bodies for eight minutes at a time and uses this ability to stop a terrorist attack on a Chicago train.
After an attack on his unit in Afghanistan, he is revealed to be on life support and eventually dies at the end of the movie.
9. The Life of David Gale:
Death-penalty abolitionist David Gale (Kevin Spacey) is executed after serving time on death row for the rape and murder of a friend. His pal, however, committed suicide after getting a fatal cancer diagnosis, according to a videotape leaked to the media following his death.
Gale and his now-deceased companion were merely attempting to persuade everyone to reconsider the use of the death penalty. The American criminal justice system has an egg on its face!
10. Remember Me:
Remember Me spends the first two hours of its runtime delving into the romance between Tyler (Robert Pattinson) and Ally (Emilie de Ravin) and reconnecting the characters’ estranged families.
Tyler gets killed off in the final ten minutes, when the audience discovers him in his father’s office at the World Trade Center’s North Tower on September 11, 2001.
