To live and die in L.A is my choice. Its like the Departed only less over the top.

Passion of the Christ, I just didn't expect *spoiler* that he would die at the end. *ends spoiler* Okay, that was a horrible joke from both a moral and comical standpoint. For some reason a serious answer is not coming to mind though...

:lol: I saw that a few years ago. Very eerie. I think The Departed had the best shock ending.

I think No Country for Old Men had a very shocking ending, one that no one in the theater possible could have seen.

Fight Club, Usual Suspects and Se7en all have to have a mention in these threads.

The Departed was the biggest shock though, when i watched it, i was like WTF?! Can something like this happen in a film?!

The entire last 15 minutes of Fight Club is amazing.

I spoiled the book before I read it, though. So the 'surprise' of the book (and, later, the movie) was lost on me.

Yea, it was good but...

[spoiler] I thought the ending kinda fell short when he killed everyone in the car. [/spoiler]

American Psycho was really f***ed up - but I liked it too.

I know there have been a lot of topics about SAW in the past few days, but the ending to SAW I was amazing, come to think of it, they all have some pretty good twist endings, but the first one was like..OMFGWTF? maybe because since it was the first in the series we didnt expect it

The Prestige and if the first Saw was the first one you watched, the ending just blows your mind.
