I don't get this movie. Anyone willing to briefly explain the ending?

There was no ending. Maybe I'm looking for something that isn't there. And I got NCFOM.

They basically explain everything that happened in that conversation between J. K. Simmons and Sledgehammer. Cox kills the gym manager and in turn gets killed by a spook who was trailing him IIRC. Any bodies have been disposed of discretely. Linda gets her surgery money from the government to keep quiet. I assume Clooney gets picked up - can't remember if they say this or not.
I love fact that all these people die or have their lives ruined, but she still got her surgeries.

If you mean how it abruptly changes over to J.K. Simmons in his office after Clooney starts running, I think that was a great ending. They really didn't need to show anything else from there.
