Burn After Reading-
Brad Pitt's death,
I watched it with a bunch of friends and all our mouths dropped in wtf shock and then we just cracked up because that seemed like the only response.

Yes! I could I forget this? That ending was really effective, the best Saw of the bunch. If only they didn't make those silly sequels.

The Thin Red Line - Woody Harrelson
grabs his grenade by the pin and it goes off while he's carrying it. Just his reaction and the sudden silence surrounding it is crazy. When he's actually dying it's really unnerving, what with the look of pain on his face and the horrified reactions of the soldiers around him.

The Usual Suspects ending was too predictable to me. I had it all figured out within the first 20 minutes. Kinda disappointed me.
