10 Movies That Completely Wasted Awesome Twists (Whatculture)

"A twist doesn't make a movie great. Take away the last-minute reveal from any bona fide classic and you'll still find everything else working underneath. Not all movies are this smart though. Of course, it's easy to see why movies would want to include a twist; done right, they're an excellent way to solidify a film as a smart, entertaining experience you definitely, definitely, definitely, definitely, definitely want to read up about online after. Yet so many manage to !*$% it up. And I'm not talking about dumb twists either, like our hero is really the killer the whole time or the evil future computer is just an app, but the times when a movie has a genuinely awesome concept that it completely wastes. A lot of the time it's shoddy writing, with a great idea not explored to its full potential. However, judging by the way some films barge through interesting plot threads, some directors don't seem to even realise what they've got." - whatculture.com
