Scarface. The ending was perfect for the movie, and really shows what happens when you live the life of a drug kingpin.

Oh... Good question, I don't know. I kind of feel like no ending to any film can top The Brady Bunch Movie (1995), but that's just because that is the best film ever made. I'm apt to say it also has the best death scene (even though nobody dies), contains the best acting in cinema history (although if it really had good acting, it wouldn't be a masterpiece which it clearly is), and that it can actually as a piece of filmmaking- bring about World Peace (which is clearly... bullshit).
But I guess that doesn't work, since the best part of that ending is Grandma curing Jan of her inner voices. Too short.
So... I might say a movie like Citizen Kane. But, what would that ending be without the beginning and middle?
Well... my favorite endings always involve women alone after a long struggle. Something like Dust Devil or Wild Things comes to mind.

I always liked the endings im most of Kubrick's movies. Especially 2001: A Space Odyssey and A Clockwork Orange.

This is a really hard question to answer, I don't really like the ending of many movies. I guess I'm going to have to say Billy Madison just because it was a perfect ending, everyone making out with random people including frank and the giant penguin.

I thought it was good, but HIGHLY overrated.

I thought, no matter what anyone else might say... It glorifies drug use and makes mobsters, gang members, and hitmen into people the public respects. Both of those things are totally wrong in my book.

Both of those things are totally wrong in my book. Good point. I've realized pretty much every "gangsta rapper" who talks about selling crack or killing people idolizes scarface. A lot of people I know wouldn't have become coked out losers if it weren't for this movie either. Everytime my friends did that sh it they thought they were tony montanna. Wat a joke, and a joke movie.

I wish I could say I hated gangsta-rap music, though. I don't. But where I grew up, the people I went to school with (at least, until Junior High when the lower grades mixed in with us) liked rap music and they were all cleancut and none of them became drug addicts or killed anyone, were arrested, went to jail. So, I still think gangsta music gets a bad rap, so to speak... I've never known anyone who turned bad because of that music.

I like the music, but the whole image and attitude and lying about being a gangsta has to go.
Project Pat is my favourite rapper

I agree about the posing. That's why it's dangerous to be a gangsta rapper. And most of the people who buy and listen to the music do it for the actual beats and rhythm or style of the rapper's voice, and not really to hear the "tales of the street" (or ghetto, or hood).
