Charlie Kaufman - Adaptation

24.59.147.48

What's the deal with the ending in this flick? I thought this movie was pretty clever and I was enjoying it up till the last 15 minutes or so. The ending seems really inconsistent with the rest pace/tone of the film.

I had the same feelings with Matchstick Men. I enjoyed the movie up until the very end which seemed inconsistent with the majority of the film. Were the endings of these movies rewritten? It almost seems as if someone chopped off the director's original ending and slapped on a lame "summary" final scene. I would have much preferred if both movies just ended a little sooner, maybe a scene earlier. Instead of having some neat "wrap it all up nicely" ending that seemed totally forced, why not leave it up to the viewer with something to think about?
