He couldn't murder her. Especially after all that happen.

Is this movie good enough to buy? Thinking about purchasing a digital copy instead of seeing it at a theater.

The ending was great. I think it's awesome (well I guess it's terrible) that she has him trapped. It makes it less cookie-cutter and truly shows just how much of a psychopath she is. Just because it's not the ending you'd like doesn't mean it's a bad ending.

I wouldn't buy it, but I am not a big "buy it" kinda guy. I mean, watch it once, awesome. After that I can wait till it hits the movie channels to see it over and over again.

As mad as he was, killing her would of been far more believable then her just getting away with everything. I think it would of been beautifully ironic for her.
And I'm speaking to before the pregnancy bs.

Well, whether you think something is a bad ending or not is kind of subjective so if you don't like how it ends that makes it a bad ending.

The movie was good but needed to be 30 mins shorter. End was fine.

I was kind of pissed by the ending but then after I ruminated on it for a few days I came around to it.
I find there's been a trend in more serious movies to have a sort of "non-ending," I guess it has something to do with art imitating life, and life has no clean cut packaged endings, blah, blah, blah.
Before this movie I watch The Master and There Will Be Blood back to back. Both of these movies have huge build-ups and then basically no climax or the climax happens at the very end of the film (some may debate whether "milkshake" scene is indeed the climax, but for my viewing experience, it was. Once I regained blood flow in my legs and thought on it a minute (a few hours) I decided these endings are kind of cool.

I think him Murdering her would have been better than what was given.

Heard from a reliable source that it relies on characters being stupid to advance the plot. Haven't bothered watching it

Haven't watched the movie. I'm guessing she tried to frame him? Then found someone else to put the blame on after being "rescued" or had escaped.

This is key to getting it, but I think I was the only person in the theater laughing regularly.

Gone Girl is one of the best of the year IMO. I was a bit put off by the ending on my first watch, but after reading the novel and a second watch I think the ending is brilliant.
Like someone said before, just because the ending didn't satisfy what you were hoping to happen, doesn't mean the ending was bad or sucked.
I did think the book did a much better job presenting the ending than the film. The film sort of forced it because the movie was already running long. The book was able to take it's time and fully develop the ending and why that really was the only way for it to end.
