Devious Journal Entry
7 min read
Nothing pleases me more than a nice, solid ending to a fantastic film. They can be epic, meaningful, or melodramatic, but for various reasons, I name off my Top 20, spoiler free.
Honorable Mentions!
The Empire Strikes Back: Alright, this ending is a perfect example of everything going wrong for our beloved characters. It ends on a nail biting cliffhanger that continues quickly with Episode VI. However, this one does not get a spot because of that. IT'S A CLIFFHANGER!
Monty Python and the Holy Grail: This ending, at first, comedic genius. I honestly never laughed harder at an ending. However, the novelty runs out too quick and you are left feeling angry and cheated as one of the most shocking endings becomes the worst.
The Green Mile: Points lost for being the only film to make me sob. Hard.
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street: I love this ending oh so much, but it does not earn a spot for being relatively new.
20) Lost in Translation
The definition of an unconventional love story with no romance, this is a film you either love or hate for how bland and uneventful it is. I love it, and the ending shows the bitter truth, that love never pays off.
19) No Country For Old Men
A revoltingly dark and hopeless film throughout, this film's ending is no exception, where literally nothing good happens and all right is killed by wrong, in the form of a sadistic yet unwilling psychopath.
18) Gran Torino
Sometimes, the best way to stand up for a cause is to step down.
17) The Invasion of the Body Snatchers
I wish I could explain this ending, but I can't without revealing the unbelievable twist.
16) Blazing Saddles
Let's just say that this farce comedy classic ends with the longest, best, most outrageous, and most clever middle finger to the 4th wall ever conceived by man. And unlike Monty Python's 4th wall breaking joke, this one gets funnier every time you see it.
15) A Clockwork Orange
Oh Alex, everyone's favorite sadist who knows how to rape his way into all of our hearts. Congratulations! You're cured! What is the first thing he does? Imagine a disturbing yet comical lesbian orgy in Heaven surrounded by men in suits and masquerades. It's a perfect window into Alex's fucked up mind., an ending not even the book it is based on could out-do.
14) The Blair Witch Project
This film is not scary, more creepy as Hell. But all of this changes in the final 10 minutes, where you will beg for mercy. The less you know about this genre-smashing masterpiece, the better.
13) Oldboy
Easily THE most fucked up and unorthodox twist in cinema, it's a remainder of the Hell we as men really live.
12) Requiem For A Dream
I really don't want to talk about this emotionally scarring film.
11) The Mist
Oh, this ending. One of the hardest to ever watch without shaking your head and cringing. Once you watch this film, go straight to your loved ones, and cherish them. Without a doubt the perfect example of just everything falling apart. Once again, the less you know, the better.
10) The Thing
John Carpenter's horrifying tale of survival and paranoia reached its climax in the closing seconds. What is The Thing? I think the better question is, "What has The Thing become...?"
9) The Usual Suspects
IMO, the most mind blowing and genius twist ending ever.
"The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled...was convincing the world he didn't exist...."
8) Reservoir Dogs
In one of the most blood filled endings ever shown on mainstream film, Quentin Tarantino's underog classic holds a special place in everyone's hearts and showed just how desperate a group of paranoid heist men could become.
7)Schindler's List
Besides The Green Mile, I find this to be the most heartbreaking ending ever. For one simple fact, the ending is in fact real life. It is even more sad if you know your history. Since this is real, this is not a spoiler. Oskar Schindler was a truly good-willed man. Because of his selflessness, over a thousand of Jews's lives were sheltered from the Holocaust through his connections, charisma, and loads of personal wealth. When he finds out the war is over however, he breaks down morally. He gave up all of his wealth to save as many Jews as possible, but this was not enough. He is ashamed of himself and beats himself mentally of his proposed failure. He beats himself with the idea that if he was less greedy with money in his past, he could have saved more lives.
It wasn't enough for Schindler and despite his good, he would never forget his failure. He would live the rest of his live in miserable and hopeless poverty, always in woe and never forgetting how pathetic he was when in fact he did save so many. The movie ends with every living Jew Schindler saved along with the actors who played them giving their sincere gratitude to Schindler's grave one by one, ending with Liam Neeson himself, who took it to himself to give one of the greatest performances I've ever seen on film. However, this ending loses points for the ending itself being, once again, real life, and not a film.
6)Se7en
You know a film is good when it forces you to question your religion, spirituality, and morals. This is exactly what Se7en did to me. The gut wrenching and hard to digest ending is one that will always linger in your mind, and make you question, "Are you really doing the right thing?"
5) There Will Be Blood
In this epic homage to Stanley Kubrick, PT Anderson has crafted a stunning tale of one man's slow and painful decent into Hell and madness. Every human can contain only so much hate and rage before snapping. This film stands as a close lesson to me to keep myself in track. "...I'm finished!"
4) 2001: A Space Odyssey
Yeah yeah yeah, my favorite movie blah blah blah. In one of the trippiest and most mind blowing final sequences ever conceived, this epic anthology of fear of the unknown and the next steps in evolution and beyond ends not with a whimper or with a boom but with a literal Big Bang. It's infamous for being "too mind blowing" and "too druggie man. What was Kubrick smoking?" but this ending will leave you questioning humanity for the rest of your life.
3)Inglourious Basterds
In Tarantino's impressive and ever growing fictional universe, this is it. The moment that started it all. In this universe, WWII was won not by brains but my ruthless brutes who took matters into their own hands. A resolution that would lead to the popularization and embracing of extreme violence and force. An ending that will leave all of the United States as blood thirsty badass killers. In Quentin Tarantino's universe, there are no good guys.
2)Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
Without a single doubt my personal favorite. A truly bizarre ending to a quirky satire from master Stanley Kubrick. What makes this ending so amazing however, was it was a filming accident. Not willing to let go of his time of shine, Peter Sellers improvised the greatest closing words to any film ever. It's unique, it's funny, it's strange, it's perfection. Accidental perfection. Not since Tortilla Chips or Penicillin was there a greater accident.
That is, except for one. What could POSSIBLY beat 2001 AND Dr. Strangelove? A exceptional masterpiece of an ending with over 3 hours and 20 minutes of buildup. The ending that left the largest impression on me ever in cinema. An ending that does even need words to explain it........................
1) Apocalypse Now Redux

Kirby is the single most badass stone cold killer in fictional history. Want proof?
A giant mecha bird is taking crops to feed her kids. What does Kirby do? Pulvarize her.
All "enemies" are cute, cudly, and many won't even attack. What does Kirby do? Eats them alive and/or beats them to death with various objects.
Kirby once BLEW UP the Sun AND the Moon just because they were in his way.
On all American covers for any Kirby game, Kirby has angry eyes and a determined look.
Kirby kills everything just because.
A knight challenges Kirby to a fair fight. What does Kirby do? Beat him to death with his own sword.
Kirby then blew up that knight's ship, killing everyone on board, for no reason.
Kirby broke into an ancient cave and stole ALL the ancient treasure just because.
When Kirby finally finds Dedede, he's a wimp compared to him. Did he REALLY do anything bad?
Kirby traveled to different planets, killing EVERYONE in his path.
What a badass.
