I thought the ending to Fight Club developed logically out of the beginning. Norton's character's problem is one of sameness -- his insomnia is caused by a culture of mass production, its emptiness and repetitiveness. With that in mind, the ending isn't so surprising. I was, however, slightly disappointed that he lived after shooting himself; if there's a flaw in the ending, that's where it is. Still, not really a "happy" ending, because he's unable to prevent his alter ego's planned destruction.
