I have never felt this robbed in my life. It's probably just me, but the ending is pretty freaking outrageous. Let me know if you guys liked the twist or not. Great movie til the end for me.

The ending pissed me off so much.

The majority of the movie was kind of dull, the police work in particular. I actually thought the flashbacks at the end tied it all together nicely though. Would have liked to see the FBI swarming on her house at the end.

The Twist was good actually but it literally makes no sense unless you are completely psychotic. She would need to pass the psych evaluation and she clearly is messed up in the head.

How could you knowingly put girls through that for a child to have as your own when I'm sure you wouldn't want someone to kidnap your own child and lock it up.

How could you look at yourself in the mirror everyday. Just plain old nuts.

I understand people more so that just snap and kill someone but planning out this long plot of making girls have your babies...doesn't feel that realistic. Even a serial killer makes more sense than this mentally.

Unless you were having girls make babies so you could sell them for $50k a pop on the black market... I don't understand the motivation behind the twist.

It's not the worst movie I've ever seen though. It was watchable.

Yeah, I think that twist was completely unnecessary. It would have been a better movie without that final twist.

I typically like crazy twists and don't mind him dying that much, but that twist just made an interesting good movie seem a bit absurd.

I have just watched this movie for the first time, albeit some 4 years since its belated release (having apparently been taped in 2007) and -- from an outrageous ending POV -- I'm with jj on this. Unfortunately the risk of spoilers prevents me from elaborating, but the last twist certainly was a bolt out of the blue....The big question I am left with is this: If the story truly was "inspired by actual events" (see opening credits): what, when, why, and whom....?

Hated the ending.

Another one here to say that the ending didn't work, for me. It could've been a serviceable thriller without the ridiculous twist. A twist is good when it's logical, not when it's so absurd that you didn't credit it, because it's just THAT stupid!

I watched it last night. Although I agree that the ending was far fetched- maybe if I were in a different mood when I watched it I would be offended by that- I sighed with relief that it wasn't a 'happy' ending. It's nice to get away from that aspect of Hollywood.

Not to mention that Jennifer Carpenter's character, who we must assume was traumatized in much the same way as the other girls, must eventually be released back into the world by "daddy" and she is well adjusted enough to not only join the police force but get promoted up the chain to detective. I realize many people don't like tidy endings but this movie would have been much better served to skip the twist and have Cusack either save his daughter or die trying without adding his partner to the mix of psychos.
