Top 10 Greatest Movie Endings of All Time!

[jdiba]

The Dark Knight

[cflisthebest]

That Superman ending doesn't look familiar... is that like a directors cut version or something??

[drlove1972]

@cflisthebest yes, it's the richard donner cut of superman 2

[TheChupchup21]

Bourne Supremacy - Landy - "Bourne" - Bourne - "Get some rest Pam you look tired"

She looks out her window and then it cuts to the credits with Moby "extreme ways" playing in the background.

[jimbowie455]

Im sorry dick donnor but i gotta call bullshit on that ending. that was a copout if i ever saw one.

[freestylefootball99]

INCEPTION

[IntoTheValleySkids]

Fight Club! look it up

[TheInspirationExpert]

For me, the top ten (not in any particular order) are Citizen Kane, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, City Lights (which I think ranks at #1), The Godfather, Apocalypse Now, Modern Times, ET, Schindler's List, Pulp Fiction, and Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

[vc4u2c]

best ending in all of filmdom- french connection pt 2

[SjOtRiK]

The ending i find the best must be from "Pirates of the caribbean: Dead man`s chest" when Barbossa walked down the staicase saying: "So... What`s become of my ship?.. ha ha ha ha." *breaks into credits with awesome music"

Must have been the only movie where i went all "OH YEEAH! *clap clap clap* in the cinema. :D

[Pedossaurus]

There are epic endings, like Gladiator, King Kong, etc; WTF/OMG endings, like Planet of Apes and a bunch of Lost episodes; and my favorite ones: twist endings, like Se7en, American Beauty and Shawshank Redemption. But I want to highlight one not yet mentioned here: The Majestic. Epic and majestic!

[TINAandFRED1]

The Sixth Sense has gotta be here!!

[mmmmmmmmmGARY]

[mohamedgna]

@AngryPlaystation yeah I did think about that but aside from a couple of movies like "its a wonderful life" , "planet of the apes" and "Starwars" however I like more recent films more than the rest like "the dark knight" and "fightclub".

[moshie11337]

Um... Usual suspects?

[eskepro]

@moshie11337 It has a legendary ending I agree :D

[WolfZeroBlade]

The One, that movie has the best ending and you all know it...

[SMHS18]

@WolfZeroBlade what the hell is "The One" ?

[SOPARA862k]

@SMHS18 It's a film starring Jet Li in the roles of both the hero and the villain, The end is great but certainly not worthy of a space on a top ten list, well maybe top ten action or top ten martial arts endings.

[jimbowie455]

I don't get it. If superman could fly so fast he could reverse time, then why ciuldnt he just catch both missles?

[hazahaxa]

@jimbowie455 because the missiles flew faster than time.

[jakeo96]

SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION

[soxpatsicecream70]

@jakeo96 I don't think the Shawshank ending is that good

[soxpatsicecream70]

@jakeo96 I don't think the Shawshank ending is that good

[sylwen34]

Truman Show ftw

[GHLIII]

All About Eve. No contest.

[parcheezisoul]

Major League II when Rick Vaughn comes back to "Wild Thing" and strikes out Jack Parkman is the clear number one in my book.

[niall29]

@parcheezisoul And you are aged 6 and have access to a time machine i imagine :)

[msymsed]

It's A Wonderful Life will always have the best ending for me...

[jubim23]

wtf?

[SpiderFan23]

I'M A MAN! well, nobodys perfect.

[unkalifornication]

i think primal fear had a awesome ending

[txmoney]

I agree with most of your picks on this list, however that Superman ending scene never happened in the theatrical version so it should be disqualified (even wasn't very good, anyway). Also, my pick for greatest end in a film surprisingly didn't even make your list. That film is, 2001: A Space Odyssey.

[markko989]

well, sincerily, i've never seen Fight Club, but i know it has a shocking end, but in my opinion, i think that one of the best endings ever was from SAW, its pretty shocking, Six Sense has also a great ending, i knew that that guy was dead, but i didnt knew that his wife also could see dead ppl, but anyway, planet of the apes i also a nice ending ;)

[ben1ben2ben1]

@markko989 I dont think his wife could see dead people

[markko989]

@ben1ben2ben1 then why in the end she was cold and saw him standing in front of her?

[ben1ben2ben1]

@markko989 She never saw him!!!!! She was just sleep talking and just said "why did you leave me". She was asleep the whole time.

[markko989]

@ben1ben2ben1 ...ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh....­..xp sorry, lol i had to ask my brother if that was true

[Pedrotankian]

@markko989 how is the end to fight club shocking?

[ricayovillanueva]

Dont know.. Black swan should be on this list

[writertrump]

@ricayovillanueva no thanks to that DYKE trash

[coolaccountname]

@ricayovillanueva this list was made 3 years ago...

[LiIGreg]

Fight Club

[soxpatsicecream7]

@LiIGreg Fight Club is the worst ending ever

[TheCrenshawpunch]

The Game

Saw

Figh Club

[goceltics339]

the wizard of oz was bullshit in my opinion

[kahael08]

[slide4180]

Ever heard of Rosebud?

[1999UTD]

@slide4180

Citizen Kane is undoubtably one the greatest films ever made, but the whole rosebud ending is soooo corny.

[teddybearhunter]

One name will sum up the greatest ending of all time... Keyser Söze...

[MelanieLouM]

[MTVGUY4]

1) The Usual Suspects

3) The Godfather

4) Scarface

5) 21

6) Crank

7) Back to the Future

8) Rocky III

9) Defiance

10) Mississippi Burning

[Jonebag99]

@MTVGUY4 good, nut i don't see the departed? :O and godfather 2 is probably better

[MTVGUY4]

@Jonebag99 watch the ending of the usual suspects you will think different

[BoboboBoBoBoboSucks]

@MTVGUY4 no The Shawshank Redemption is #1

[teddybearhunter]

@BoboboBoBoBoboSucks Both brilliant, but i think Shawshank is #2 and usual suspects is #1.

[alexalex3131]

Yes, great choices. The "Some Like It Hot" ending is now legendary. The "Planet Of The Apes" ending knocked people out in the theatres because it was a genuine surprise.

[pamann2323]

Have you seen a movie since 1980??

[charliedemar]

That's great.....giving some love to March of the Wooden Soldiers! COOL.

[gaje90]

Great list, you also could've added a bunch of movies to the list as well (Inception, Seven, Fight Club, American Beauty, The Departed, The Sixth Sense, Back to the Future, and The Terminator)

[TjinDeDjen]

good list....for a dinosaur....

[sunblockboy]

Best trilogy all time no exceptions(as well as books) ------

The lord of the Rings

[YoungGrizzly82]

Great movie endings: The Sixth Sense Saw The Usual Suspects Seven Psycho The Vanishing (foreign version) Dressed to Kill Oldboy Memento Secret Window Planet of the Apes (1968 version) Arlington Road The Skeleton Key Fight Club Jacob's Ladder

[ThaMovieManiac]

@YoungGrizzly82 You missed, The Prestige, Identity and The Departed

[itchyhole]

No Scarface? Braveheart? Shawshank? Come on.......

[twagner84]

SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!!!!

[TechnologyMAN1245]

my top movie endings (no particular order)

8.Close encounters of the third kind

7.E.T. the extra terrestrial

6.The sixth sense

5.The sting

4.Monsters Inc.

3.Blair Witch Project

2.Ghost

1.whatever happened to Baby Jane

I haven't seen as many movies as most people who are watching this video

[Mattamster]

"Remember... The force will be with you... Always. "

[Rockboy58]

"Uuh... i'm a MAN" "Well, nobody's perfect" i almost lold at that ;D

[chrisman737]

Very good choices. I know there are so many to choose from, but I would have certainly put the last few shots from "Psycho" in the top ten, without any doubt at all. Another possibility would be the end from "Sunset Boulevard."

[Rumisonqqo]

Yeah. I like that type of "WTF! endings" like that one from "Planet of the Apes".

[montecristo73]

Good choice. I would also include the endings for The Wicker Man and Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

[wookie72]

/I just noticed Perry White is smoking and brushing his teeth... WTF?

[zagui33]

HOW OLD ARE YOU MAN, 101 YEARS OLD???

NAH JUS KIDDING, I LIKE SOME OF THESE CLASSICS TOO...

[Rumisonqqo]

@zagui33 He might have died 50 years ago and his grand grand grand son uploaded this clip XD

[baseball1949]

I'm gonna put The Island's ending in here if that's cool.

[frtw4428]

Quite a few others I wanted to see on here: "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," "Rashomon," "The Shawshank Redemption" among others. Good selection though. One thing for certain - I agree completely with #1!

[spazzjam669]

@frtw4428 if you could consider the entire last half hour of SHawshank, it may even be number1

[mariostud]

Whenever I see the World Trade Centers in NYC I want to turn the world into a parking lot. You should count your blessings, world, that the US isn't really has horrible as you want to think. If it were, you'd be dead by now.

[WorldWatcher9]

carrie had a good ending

[MadaraXIII]

#4.....OOOH so that's where they got that meme from.

MMmm Soylent greens they're People Flavored XD

[redhairmarimo]

these aren't good endings. They are good movies,but most of the endings are unsurprising. Oh, in Jaws the shark is killed. Big surprise.

[Qweeirdough]

@mrsmaul2010 the Shawshank Redemption ending is a trillion times better than all of these put together.

[ninefivesuited]

Debbie Does Dallas?

[dvir971]

Fight club....

[tro0llgores]

Usual Suspects anyone? 

[GnRSlash88]

RUDY RUDY RUDY RUDY RUDY RUDY RUDY

[erialton]

Superman? Really?

Dude, I totally agree with you with the endings. These are classics and classics deserve to be remembered. Perhaps you could've moved Casablanca up a little farther up the list, but thats my opinion. You definitely know your movies.
