If you look at this movie as a whodunnit, yes, its ending proves disappointing.
However, the themes of obsession and jealousy are at its core. In that light, this ending is brilliant and shows what rivalry can do to people.
Perhaps the reveal could have been a bit more graceful, making it seem less convoluted, but I think that would take away from the shock its has at the end.
I really think very few directors besides Nolan could pull this off.
