Not really. Prospero is always in charge, and he is a good guy, and so are Ariel and Miranda. There is no real threat from the castaways or from Caliban, no matter how malicious he might seem. The ending does not have the ambiguity of the endings of such plays as Measure for Measure or All's Well, and is far removed from the unsatisfying and bleak resolution of Troilus and Cressida. In the Tempest, the young couple are happily married, Ariel is freed, the bad guys repent and Prospero retires. A pleasant resolution all around.
