I just caught Disturbia on Cinemax.
Its a close call, but I think it may have beaten out Boondock Saints for the coveted "Ending So Bad It Ruins The Entire Movie" award.
haven't seen it, but my number 1 "ending so bad it ruins the entire movie" would definitely go to "3:10 to Yuma" which is a really good movie all the way through until the ending is so illogical it makes you want to get shot.

I agree. It was a very good movie up until this point.
As for Disturbia.. it was just an ok movie anyhow.

I thought he went to jail so the kids memory of his father wouldn't be ruined. He can obviously break out of their jails any time he wants.
I saw Disturbia awhile back, but I forgot how it ended.
The ending in The Mist sucked!
Disturbia threw in the towel and began using cheap tactics to get jumps from the audience instead of using things like suspense and atmosphere. Usually I don't mind a movie going the cheap route, but they had been doing well up until the end, it was disappointing.
Also they ended the movie with the teens having one last wacky afternoon, instead of, you know, wrapping up the loose ends concerning the multiple homicide next door.
And they killed the cop, for no reason other than to kill him.
As for The Mist, it depends what you went into it expecting. If you wanted a monster flick, you were probably disappointed (as were a lot of people who saw it thanks to the misleading ad campaign). If instead, you rewatch and consider the tremendous evils inside of humanity that come loose in situations of life and death, thats a brazzilion times scarier than extra dimensional monsters. As for the ending,
can you imagine the abject horror and despair of a man who has just shot four other humans, including his young child, only to discover that had they waited a few more minutes they all could have lived happily ever after? King's works don't always deal with creepy crawlies.

I don't think that Boondock Saints could have ended better. I mean, their father was hired to knock them off, not realizing they were his kids, then becoming the ultimate vigilante family, fighting crime by slaughtering the guilt-ridden. I mean, come on, that's the epitome of a super-hero family.

What are these clips from?
Ahhhh that's right. Now I remember. Yeah, stupid ending.
I'm sick of that kid from Even Stevens invading my movies.. First A stupid role in I-robot, then Disturbia, Transformers. And lastly Indiana Jones. I hate that kid.
