That's an explicit bad ending, no? Unless you view his parents as representing conformity and then now he is FREE, but I don't think that's how the movie plays it.
I often think of Gilliam now as a relic that should be stowed away, and lord knows his personal behaviour does him no favours, but this is still such a perfect movie.
