10 Sci-Fi Movies That Pissed Audiences Off In The Final Scene

Luc Besson's Lucy touts one of the more infamous endings of any film from the last decade, when Lucy (Scarlett Johansson) finally unlocks 100% of her brain capacity, causing her to undergo an epic transformation.

She hits 100% just as drug kingpin Mr. Jang (Choi Min-sik) is about to shoot her in the head, causing her to suddenly disappear into thin air, much to the amazement of everyone in the room.

At 100%, Lucy has transcended her physical form and entered the spacetime continuum, where she now possesses the ability to be everywhere all at once, while leaving behind a USB stick containing all of her accrued knowledge to help humanity.

Though Lucy doesn't "turn into a USB stick" as many flippantly suggest, the ending isn't really much less ridiculous than that.

The many viewers hoping to see Lucy go full-on Super Saiyan mode at the end were surely left disappointed that she just... disappeared and the film then hastily ended totally out of nowhere.
