    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.

    I think some are confusing "confusing" with "disappointing"...

    There are many thousands of "disppointing" movies. :-)
