chaya bat woof woof Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Ghost Story (read the book and the ending wasn't like the movie). Any recent films with Marvel et alia super heroes (because they want to keep a franchise going) If you misinterpret it, GWTW Suspicion is anti-climatic because people didn't want to see Cary Grant as a murderer. I don't know if it is anti-climatic, but The Big Sleep (I think - with Bogie and Bacall) is too convoluted - can't keep players and murderers straight. Mildred Pierce is also rather anti-climatic 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Peebs Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 I agree about Suspicion. I was hoping that Cary Grant would knock off old monkey face. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) 3 Link to post Share on other sites
shutoo Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 anti-climatic for laughs...Murder by Death (even the fog is phoney) I know why they ended The Next Voice You Hear... without a 'message', but when the minister says "we forgot it's Sunday, and God's resting" as a reason.,..that's beyond hokey 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see the anti climax. Link to post Share on other sites
