  • One of the most underrated movies, I remember watching this in Hong Kong and only two other people were in the cinema.

    One of the best movies I have watched.

  • thumbs up if you're watching this movie on new years 2011 and plan to synchronize it so that 2012 starts at the same time this movie ends

  • @fjkgm5 That's a good idea to start the New Year's off right where the movie ends. :)

  • This movie kicks ass!

  • Nevermind the fact that Lenny should be passed out from blood loss, this one scene always gets to me.

  • I want someone to look at me this way.

  • whats the name of the song?

  • @pana5sup The name of the song that plays when Mace and Lenny kiss is Lori Carson's "Fall in the Light."

  • @Catalinaeva2388 Actually, this is part of the film score. It's called "Y2K Kiss." This version is heavily layered with stringed instruments. You can't even find the score anywhere........... but I have ;)

  • @mscubana Where did you find the "Y2K Kiss" score? I'd like to have that song! :)

  • The way Lenny looks at Mace, like he finally got off of the playback and saw the reality/girl that was right in front of him...LOVE THIS MOVIE

  • Comment removed

  • this movie is a double edged sword for me.... I love it .... but it depresses me at the same time some how... Not sure if its because i realize how far those times are gone now...or if i let someone slip away when i should've done what Lenny did

  • There is nothing like watching a good movie for the first time. The part where the kid jumps on the bad cop when angela was getting beaten, got me off my seat. I was standing up for the rest of the movie. And the ending was just amazing.

  • Angela did a great job. If she had been killed I would have been really dissapointed. She's a hottie too! I'm gonna have to catch some of her other movies now.

  • I just finished watching this movie. I loved it! That ending was really good. It kind of tells you, it's never too late. Well unless the other person is dead...

  • I saw this in the theatres in 95. There were 4 people watching it. Why? This and Point Break are my favorite movies of the 90's, both directed by Katherine Bigelow. Probably among my all time favorites. I had so much dreams when I saw this. I still watch it consistently to keep hope alive.I don't know y it didn't do better box office wise.

  • I agree with all of you! Everytime I see this movie, I love it more and more.

  • One of the best movie ending ever.

  • such an underated movie

  • Pre-2001 imaginings of the nightmarish future are so blindingly happy.

  • It was good for me...how bout you? >;)

  • THE WAY HE LOOKS AT HER.....AMAZING!!! And here I was thinking that I was the only person in the world who loved this part of the movie, LOL.

  • Yo i watched this movie for the first time yesterday and i can't believe how much i loved it!!like just the entire way it was done,the story,the dark future,the whole thing with virtual memories being addictive like a drug lol.awesome fucking movie!!i've been hearing about it for years and ignored it until i found out it was writtien byt James Cameron

  • I soooo agree with this comments!! I love love love this ending and the song is just the icing!!! thank you for letting me know I was not alone!!

  • No matter how many times I watch this (and believe me I watch it a lot - this part not the entire movie) my heart races and I get excited by the look in Ralph's eyes right before he kisses her...incredible...

  • Is it bad that I feel like I need to take a cold shower after watching this scene? lol

  • We need to see more scenes like these.........love Angela and Ralph together..

  • Great ending!

  • I uploaded the entire film, enjoy.

  • i would love ta kiss Angela Bassett myself....ummmmm those juicy sexy liips

  • the only problem is that Lenny will have to say what he does while being asked questions by the police...for 6 hours

  • Oh my gosh !! it's beautifull <3333

  • I could try and say something meaningful but I'll leave that to others. All I know is that I would've done as many takes as possible to get that kiss with Angela Bassett just perfect :D

  • Does anyone know the song/music used in this scene? It's beautiful.

  • @Sadja87 Lori Carson Fall in the Light!

  • @Sadja87 Fall in the light by Lori Carson

  • one of the best onscreen kisses ever. this is how i imagined Y2K would be on its eve

  • This scene still gives me chills. <3

  • .... and a big-fucking-screen television.

  • This is the movie I'm buying a blu-ray player for.

  • I love how this intensely strong woman becomes so vunerable at this moment she has been longing for so long... better than any kiss in any chickflick!

  • @jestersfrown I love your comment! So true

  • The Blade Runner of the '90.

  • @PatrickBateman47 Awesome comparison!

  • LOVE THIS FREAKING MOVIE!

  • This is one of the best fucking movies I've ever seen.

  • I'll get this on Blu Ray.

  • Trully beautiful film and ending Kathryn Bigelow has been underestimated for a long time. I always felt this film had strong, believable characters and the production is enormous and breathtaking. Basset in an old interview said this final kiss made her knees weak during and afterwards. Apparently, Fiennes is quite the kisser :)

  • @cheerchic82 wowee wow! I'd be weak in the knees, too! When I first saw this it became one of my fave passionate moments in film and set the standard by which I view cinematic romantic gestures. Angela Bassett and Ralph Fiennes were/are so gorgeous, and gorgeous together. Yeow!

  • @Trund27 I could not agree more...

  • Angela Basset is my favorite actress, and I like Ralph too... but this scene... is just awesome! I've seen Strange Days so many times and I'm still crying at the end. BEST ENDING EVER!

  • seen alot, but theres no other scene that reminds me more of a love in coming than this one.

  • I don't get why Faith got arrested

  • 2 counts Obstruction of Justice (not telling the the proper law enforcement personnel about Jeriko 1's death, DeAmanda and Iris's deaths), 2 counts Aiding and Abetting (helping Gant try to cover up Jeriko 1's death and helping Max in killing Gant by not warning him), Accomplice to Gant's brain-frying (by giving the trodes to Max) and Gant's death (by not warning Gant or police that Max was looking to kill Gant),

  • Accomplice to the attempted murder of Lennie Nero (by failing to provide him with the information she withheld about Jeriko and DeAmanda and Iris's deaths, failing to notify Lennie that Max was looking to kill him and set him up for the death of Gant.) Also, Involuntary Manslaughter for the death of Tick, seeing as how it could have been prevented if she told Lennie everything.

  • I uploaded the entire film.

  • One of the greatest endings in movie history, my favorite scene in the film.

  • My favorite scene is when the bad cops are beating up lenny and this kid jumps onto one of the cops backs and starts a riot...its amazing

  • Maybe the most underrated film of the last 20 year`s.

  • @MrValiant61 THANK YOU! This flick is my favorite of ALL time, atleast tied with Empire Strikes Back with Bladerunner and Gattaca in the line ups...

  • I love this movie. This is my fav scene. So HOT together. The song was perfectly placed there.

  • It was so obvious throughout the movie she loved him but he never noticed. When he finally realized and went back and kissed her it was AWESOME

  • The ending was the best part of this move.Because when it was all said and done. She was always there for him no matter how bad the situation was or if they would ever make out alive. He new this. And it wasn't until the end that he realized finally that it was now or never. That he needed to show her how he truly felt....True love finds away.

  • Some decade 2000-2009 turned out to be.

    Let's see if we can make the new one any better.

  • The Ending AND credits are one fo the BETS in cinema history!

  • I LOVE the character of Lenny. Flawed, human, heart hanging out...

  • That was extremely sensual. Damn.

  • I about died when he kissed her...Best kiss ever is an understatement.......

  • Angela is 1 beautiful woman!

  • @judaschongo You are right. I am a big fan of Angela. I have a feeling Fiennes had a crush or something on her the way he kissed her, either that or he is one hell of an actor ;-)

  • Well, as far as his character of Lenny Nero went, he never had a romantic thought of Macey until the very end when it finally dawned on him what he had, so when the big scene came it was really powerful I also love how Nero and her switched places, at First he looked out for her until she became the strong one and then she looked out for him as he went wayward in life, then Nero was saved from darkness by her.

  • @silbitnuoc So it was love for mace, or reward for her loyalty? Maybe both, as love as an element of admiration in it. We admire what we love. We do see Faith as someone who cares about Lenny in her own way (trying to dissuade the record producer from going after Nero and later on helping him during the knife fight). But Faith is too flaky. Mace was more of a steadying force in Nero's life (which he needed badly). IMHO

  • @mrsotter19 I really think it was love. They could have had him replay things she said in her mind like the "have you ever been in love with someone who didn't return that love?" speach, but I think all the hints added up. So not a reward in that sense, but he definately had admiration and respect for her, and more, so in this case....love was its own reward for them both. Faith just wasn't extreme enough to stomach killing, that was human reaction only.

  • @silbitnuoc Thumbs up for you! "love was its own reward for them both". Gosh, do you mind if I use this quote sometime? Beautiful comment :-)

  • @mrsotter19 Thank you.

  • Kik asz Testament played at the end! Great band!

  • This was directed by Kathryn Bigelow!!! Anyway I love this movie and shame it didn't do better when it came out. BTW One of the best kiss scenes ever, and the chemistry was perfect.

  • really? kathyrn Big huh? wow, she's been doing wonderful things for a while

  • @similik101 My comment was more of the "Go Girl!" type than trying to be informative, you know. Most people don't think woman can direct action movies, so that Oscar award to Bigelow has made history. So happy for her.

  • VERY UNDERRATED!... so brilliant..

  • Another great james cameron story.strong women.love story.great action

  • this movie was done by his ex-wife(Hurt Locker director)she learned from the best.

  • THIS IS AWSOME!!!

    I was looking at your "splinter in my heart" vid (once again =P) and i saw this vid in your channel and i've just finished seeing this movie on "the film zone" a channel here in argentina. this is mad dude, really mad

  • Dear God I love the way he looks at her just before kissing her. Every woman wants to get this look at least once in her life. Love this movie.

  • one of the coolest movies of the 90s!

  • What a kiss! I want to work with Ralph just to kiss him like that :P

  • Nero's Ex was such a bitch,I was relieved that the cliche "Gets back together with her" end didn't happen.

  • The ending to this film could not have been more perfect.

  • Strange Days is underrated masterpiece - unique storyline, great acting, directing, producing...

    Ralph Fiennes (Lenny Nero) is always brilliant no matter it's comedy, drama or sci-fi movie. Angela Bassett did a great job as well. The final kiss scene was so sweet.

    I don't know why but this film reminds me another underrated SCI-FI/Action movies of the 90's - The Lawnmower Man, Johnny Mnemonic, Deathline (Redline), New World Disorder, Futuresport, Barb Wire......

  • Best scene ever

  • Beautiful scene. I love this movie.

  • I remember when my girlfriend first introduced this movie to me when I watched her videotape at her house after she explained it to me for 3 years when we were in high school.

  • Shouldn't that be on AFI's best kisses ever in a movie. It should be up there.

  • Ralph, you can certainly pull me out of any car any day and start my year off right like that lol

  • Watching that kiss all I can say is, WOW!

  • I don't care if some thought this movie wasn't good because it wasn't high budget, et. I saw this once late at night, instantly loved it. Had the ending song stuck in my head forever even.

  • Very well spoken. Your words seem to be from the good memory section in my head too. I have never got bored watchin' this great movie again and again. The endin' scene is touched me inside.

  • perhaps one of the greatest movie endings ever. ANY flaws this movie had I felt were forgiven by this moment.

  • @dragonfly4200 This movie is tied with 3 others for my ALL time favorite...

  • @dragonfly4200 I couldn't agree more....It is so haunting and emotional...

  • @dragonfly4200 I wonder if Ralph Fiennes is a good kisser in real life because on he sure has the on screen kiss down to perfections. In every movie I've ever seen....he is the best kisser I've ever seen.

  • @TrixieBelaire Ralph Fiennes and Jude Law, they both look like good kisser. I am a die-hard Fiennes fan but check out the ending kiss in "My Blueberry Nighs" and tell me if JL is not right up there with RF.

  • i just saw this movie

    its very good =]

  • The "Critics" who gave this movie bad reviews are and were retarded. I saw this movie in theatre and I was blown away by how awesome it is. The best thing is the fact it's 14 years old but doesn't seem the slightest bit dated. That's hard to pull off!

  • Ralph Fiennes has some kinda weird power... He just dissolves women. Yay for interracial love! Gives me hope.

  • I remember when I first watched this scene, I rewinded it over and over again. I felt like someone had reached in and twisted up my insides, it was so intense. I LOVE this kiss! Even to this day it still makes me weak in the knees. Always been a big fan of Ralph's, and even more so after this movie. Thanks for posting!

  • I remember sitting at the end of my bed slack-jawed when this scene happened. That look he gives her just before he kisses her. -sigh- It's so intense. All my kisses since seeing this have been compared to this one...

  • I love his sense of urgency. He comes rushing to the car, banging on the windows like something's wrong. If I were Mace I would have been afraid something had happened. Lenny looks like he's saying:

    "Stop the car! Get out now! Your life depends on it!"

    He pulls Mace out and she's like "What?!"

    Lenny's like, "Oh, nothing. I just wanted to kiss you." *smack*

    I love how his world had to stop on a dime just to lock lips with her. So passionate and intense. Best kiss ever.

  • @stolenturtle So erotic. I found their chemistry scorching!!

  • @stolenturtle You totally, totally nailed it. It's such an urgent, desperate moment of passion. It's so great when characters you love come together, esp. when their chemistry and the story is so well done.

    This scene is sooooo awesome!

  • @stolenturtle Also, cocks.

  • @stolenturtle After a kiss like that from Ralph Fiennes, I could die of euphoria.

  • ditto

  • ha ha me too!!! I rewound this scene like 10 times :) I love ralph & angela!!

  • I liked this movie in its entirety, but yeah, that kiss! OMG, it put me on a Ralph Fiennes trip for a long while after I saw it (like five times, lol). He has great hands too, if those were his and not a double's. Swoooonnn...

    The music for this flick was also right on the mark. Silver Forest, is it?

  • The song in this clip is Lori Carson "Fall into the Light". I love that this song can still give me chills. That's why I don't listen to it often.

  • My god that has to be the hottest kiss I've ever seen in a movie. The look on his face melts me everytime. Angela is a lucky woman to have been on the receiving end of that - acting or not!!!!!

  • @Twilight97Chick She stuck her tongue in his mouth , I am so sexually threatened.

  • great fkin movie!... got 2 stars.. on boarderline of 3 to me

  • i <3 the ending, a great touch 2 the movie

  • best ending ever!

  • Sigh.~

  • I love this movie and the ending!!

    <3

  • ralph fiennes is freakin smokin. he was sooo into the kiss. it was hotttttt ... i wouldve probably fainted if i were her lol

  • Great combination of music and images, romantic, powerful.

  • This was an amazing scene. When they interviewed Angela, she said her legs almost gave out it was such a great kiss. It is off the chain. So much is in a scene through eyes and a kiss. WOW.

  • do you know which interview that was? i've been searching interviews of this movie, only found one, but wasnt really an interview

  • Oh how I love Angela basset. I had a big crush on her and this movie just made me fall in love with her. I still am in love with her and have a huge crush on her. her and Pam grier.

  • Such a great ending to a wild movie. They were HOT.

  • The song , the setting , everything was perfect one of the most beautiful endings i've ever seen.. Seeing it at the movie theatre was even more amazing

  • amazing movie

  • thaks for the vid!! i love this ending

  • Damn! Ralph was going for it. That was hot.

  • I remember very well when I saw this movie in the 90's, amazing movie indeed. Angela Bassett should have got 2 or 3 oscars in her career, the only reason why she got none was being too black for the film industry, really shameful

  • Im glad somebody else agrees. Theres only been four black women to win an oscar. Three were supporting and one was for lead I think.

  • Gives me chills... I love this ending.

  • I love that scene!

  • Real and beautiful

  • I remember watching this film waaay back in the day, I believe when it first came out and I loved it! RF/AB had fabulous chemistry and I loved the whole sci-fi, film noir aspect to the movie.. LOVED this ending song, and that kiss?! THUDD!! I waited the ENTIRE movie for that kiss, and for Lenny to finally realize that Mace was sooo in love with him.. talk about not being disappointed. RF just NAILED that ish! And AB was just gorgeous and kick azz in this movie! (love her!) GREAT film!

  • THis movie is one of the best movies ever!

    I dont know why it didnt get so famous:/ its so under rated :(

    the atmosphere the acting the music....the whole package is amazing.

    lets face it ..anything has to do with james cameron is an epic!

  • I like this movie very much becasue the woman takes over many times and kicks butt---and not in a skin tight boob bouncining outfit most of the time either, yaay! She's sooo cool!

  • Oh to switch places with Angela Basset!!!! But how did Lenny not bleed to death with such a bad wound????

  • such snags make it less than ingenious but just a bit! maybe thats why it got under rated, GusStorms.

    i mostly got annoyed with ppl looking through the window on left when bassett destroys leni's faithful, lets call em, clips. that's the scene just after the one she kicks 3 of gant's men butts in some basement where the lamp dangles...

    ladies, gentlemen, a picturesque description i gave u!

  • Amazing kiss - one of the best screen kisses ever next to Romeo + Juliet and Desperado

  • Agreed - I swoon every time I see the ending of this great movie!!

  • yeah its great - its a lot like real life

    too - there are people out there who really

    love us and sometimes they can be right in

    front of you and you dont know it yet.

  • I loved Ralph Fiennes in this. He looked similar to Dave Gahan during his "Devotional" days.

  • this is da film that fatboy slim sampled "right here right now" from its around 1 hour nd 39 minutes swear ta god

    boom boom waaaaaaay ;ljffijf:):):):):):):):):) wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo they call me mista boom bastic

    haha whey hayyyyyy ;) =] dance wiv m3m3m3m3

    first person to reply to this comment gets an autographed picture of me ;)

  • I like this scene.

  • i bet he can do other things with that tongue and then some..... my my he is gorgeous!

  • Damn! If only it were longer

  • *whistles* Hot stuff! He gave her some tongue! Eff yes! Way to go, Ralphy! Lucky Angie!

  • really an awesome soundtrack grame revell is really very good even the song is performed buy a woman i forgott now thename but i have an album from her

  • ah yes lori garson lol :-D

  • Now I'm not generally down w/ the swirl....but this was def a fav scene

  • That was a really great kiss!!!!

    Very good hot, passionate lip pressing action.

    Best scene in the entire movie.

  • Yes thank you finally someone with some taste.

    Thank you.This scene is so natural and faith instilling.You can almost feel for forever.True movie craftsmanship.

  • Gracias por subir esto. Es una película hermosa, de gran guión de Cameron y dirigida por una chica. Una gran historia de amor.

  • Tongue and everything. Man, I remember when I first saw this movie, and I was like when is Lenny going to wake up and realize Mace loves him. And he grabbed her out of the car, and went to town. Go, Ralph.

  • One of the greatest ending ever.

    Along with Shawshank Redemption, Truman Show.

  • damn i love this movie. and that kiss. funny how he goes the whole time without ever noticing that mace was in lvoe with him. it took faith's betrayal to see that.

  • What a kiss! Ralph -- so hot!!! This was a really good movie.

  • Soo true. That was a great kiss. Ralph Fiennes, Jonathan Rhys Meyers and others are great at delivering good passionate kisses on-screen.

  • That made my day...I love the movie!!

  • Absolutely Breathtaking

  • Did they REALLY kiss? I mean it looks like they were neckin' for real.

  • Are you kidding? He obviously slipped her the tongue. How can you even question that they were really kissing?

  • I wish the soundtrack version was more like this version...seems cooler from the movie. Either way though, awesome song.

  • I LOVE THAT SCENE! its so emotinal and romantic...its better after seeing the whole movie though.
