Best Ending

[Jack Rabbit]

Silent Hill, by far. Mysterious, and leaves room for a sequel without being an outright cliffhanger.

The Prestige, Spider-Man 3, and Pan's Labyrinth are all tied for second place.

Yeah, I love it when every major character cries like giant, sopping vaginas. It was awesome.

I really liked the ending to What Dreams May Come, Matchstick Men, and the Departed. I agree with a lot of the others posted, too.

Letters From Iwo Jima

On the island of Iwo Jima, they dig out a bag full of the letters written by the Japanese soldiers. It gives us a full circle effect, a wow effect, and a this all happend effect. The music playing during this is very well done.

I haven's seen either Letters from Iwo Jima or Flags of our Fathers (I would love to though). Is that where the two films are connected to each other, through the letters?
Do the actors from one movie appear in the other?

Giant, sopping vaginas? Kudos on the brilliant word choice, sir.

Throughly agree on The Departed, espically the final shot of the rat on the rail with the justice building in the background.

It's Scorcese, of course he has a brilliant ending.

I think only one actor is seen in both movies, but I am not sure who.

The Letters were used for telling the Japanese side of the story. Flashbacks from the soldier sent to get people to buy war bonds in America (since they were in the famous Iwo Jima picture) tell the story of that movie.

When you watch one, you can picture events of the other happening (such as the American soldiers wondering why the Japanese were not firing immediately, and the Japanese ones sitting in hiding waiting for their orders). Both movies make a wonderful whole.

You know what, I just recently bought it on DVD and the ending of Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines is really beautiful.

It totally took me by surprise in the cinema as I expected Judgement Day to be stopped again but when John Connors and Sarah Bruster start hearing the cries for help on the radio in that bunker, then the beautiful score starts and we see the missiles being fired - it's just a gorgeous sequence, really emotional and a really somber and melodramatic way to end the movie. Powerful stuff!

I agree,the score at the end is great.I also agree that Dawn of the Dead(NEW) had a good ending.

 

[sithgoblin]

Yeah, too bad John Connor is a little ninny when the world needs a great leader.

Yea,Kate Brewster(claire danes)was more of a leader than him in the film.

 

[Qwerty©]

Spider-Man had a great end sequence.

 

[black_dust]

Terminator 2! ""

 

[DarbyD53]

I like a lot of the ones mentioned so far, so I'm going to list 2-3 thats not be listed I believe.

I really was into the end of Armaggedon. Bruce's face up on that big screen infront of Liv, I guess the reason I liked this one is it played with my emotions and made me think of what it would feel like to be him and knowing as soon as I pushed that button I'd be dead.

I also enjoyed the ending of Scream 1. Took me by surprise it had two killers and one was her boyfriend who had been 100% cleared earlier in the movie. Thought it was good.

and the last one is The Illusionist, I know probably everyone on here saw that ending coming, but I didn't. It was late, I was sleepy, Jessica Biel was being hot as always, so I never saw that ending coming.

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon has one amazing ending IMO, she says something like "make a wish" and jumps off

T2 " " is classic

Braveheart

T3 had a great ending, just a shame they completely f**ked up everything the first 2 movies were saying, it went from "you can change the future " to "you're f**ked" :

Collateral had IMO a good ending

Vanilla Sky is one of my favs, great ending, great music, just perfect ending

[Carmine Falcone]

The Taking of Pelham One, Two, Three and Peformance both have pretty genius endings. With killer final shots.

 

[Matt]

I notice a lot of love for The Usual Suspects. I don't like the twist myself. It is too much a twist for the sake of a twist. Your twist shouldn't negate the rest of the movie, and that is exactly what The Usual Suspects does.

 

[Bat Attack]

Aliens.

The originals ending was great as well:

[Golgo-13]

The Hulk. I was extremely pleased that it was finally over.

 

[co2]

I do like the ending of the original Planet of the apes

If you are talking endings that just left you so surprised and impacted that you have to sit there for a moment to wrap your mind around what you have just watched for the last 2 hours....then this is now and forever the King.

Yeah I agree

 

[Space Moose]

Die Hard. Everybody in that movie got what they deserved.

True. Except the black cop's wife didn't get the twinkies he purchased for her. If they were for her that is...

 

[Redwoods Wolf]

^^True.

I liked Broken Flowers' ending.
