Well, the folks at BonusFinder Canada (www.bonus.ca) have come up with
the top 10 most confusing movie endings for Canadians.
Ranked at No. 1 is American Psycho, based on the novel by Bret Easton
Ellis and starring Christian Bale as a knife-wielding investment
banker-turned-serial killer. The film was directed by Canadian Mary
Harron.
Using keyword analysis tool Ahrefs, BonusFinder Canada set out to to
find which movies audiences can't wrap their heads around by analyzing
search terms such as "(movie) explained" and "(movie) ending meaning."
American Psycho had 40,320 annual searches for explanations of the
movie's ending, while Ari Aster's Midsommar was Canada's second-most
confusing film with 16,680 searches annually.
Christopher Nolan's Interstellar arrived in third position with 16,200
searches from Canadian viewers annually, as well as Nolan's most recent
film about the atomic bomb, Oppenheimer, which placed in fourth with
13,800 searches.
One of the all-time head-scratchers, Donnie Darko, came in at No. 5
with 13,560 searches, while Nolan's Inception placed No. 6 with 12,720
searches.
The Coen Brothers' No Country for Old Men was in seventh position with
11,160 searches and Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island placed eighth with
10,800 searches.
Nolan's Tenet -- OK, he's officially the most confusing filmmaker, at
least on this list -- placed ninth with 9,600 searches and Tom Ford's
Nocturnal Animals rounded out the tops 10 with 9,120 searches.
BonusFinder began by using a seed list of notoriously confusing movies
compiled using CBR, Collider and The Wrap, in addition to new releases
from the last couple of years using ScreenRant.
Data was collected on Monday.
