I definitely think the trilogy would be no less great without Red's ending, but taking into account Kieslowski's metaphysical and fate angle (like in the wonderful Blind Chance and semi-wonderful Double Life)...it so works for me.
First viewing, I was like, "Oh shit!."
On face value, yup, it's contrived; in terms of context, it's wonderful.
