Goodbye Lenin
So, "No Way Out", seconded by me.
Thirded. 🙂
Take the mick if you want but the first men in black ending was quite thought provoking. The scene where it pans out from the city to the state all the way to the cosmos. Ending up with two, ermmmm things playing marbles with us. On other words we're naff all in the grand scheme of things.

I thought that was a nice touch too.
Whatever Scarlett whispers to Bill Murray at the end of Lost in Translation.
I know it was technically a TV series, but the finale was feature length so I'm going to throw it in: M*A*S*H. Never fails to bring a tear.
No Way Out? Fourthed.
Birdman was pretty good in a pick what you want to think way.
Usual Suspects. I'm jealous of people who haven't seen it as they get to see it.
Toy Story 3. Sob.
The Matrix. As said before, stop right there.
Gone Girl. Much better than I was expecting.
I've read this thread in frustration, hoping for some decent spoilers. Instead all I get is lists of films to which I've forgotten the ending.
Anyway, for total wtf confusion how about Kubrick's 2001? No idea what that was about. Then again, I was nine.
Or for seen late at night student freakout paranoia how about Donald Sutherland's final line in the first remake of invasion of the body snatchers? (Spoiler alert, it's "xxxxxhhaaaaar!")
French connection: sweaty fat git harbour boat chase shooting?
Actual tear jerker for me and I can't even remember the title, is an Almodovar film. In the final seconds it jumps forward in time from a silent nightime street in Franco's Madrid, which becomes party town a couple of decades later. The authorial voiceover says something along the lines of "how frightened we were then, but we're not frightened any more." Ah for a bit of 90s optimism.
Most now taken but Gomorrah surprised me at the end with its almost throw away treatment of the main characters.
Dirty Harry.
Green mile.
Back To The Future.
"Where we're going we don't need roads."
Much as I like them, the sequels couldn't quite live up to the promise of that closing scene. Ace.
Someone must have said Casablanca already yes?
Pan's Labyrinth, tear jerker
Little miss sunshine.
Another Donald Sutherland one: How about Don't Look Now, for a devastating conclusion?

I liked the way Downfall ended, really great film.
The supposedly improvised last words by Rutger Hauer in Bladerunner......tears in the rain....
