To me, that deus ex machina ending is intensely realistic, because that's how such things tend to actually end. If you look at the most notable examples in our own lifetimes, it was always just as sudden, surprising, and inevitable in retrospect.

Without spoiling, I'll say that I had the same issues with the ending as you did.
