15 Movies With Endings That Broke the Rules According to Collider

"Ideally, there shouldn't be any 'rules' when it comes to art, and people should be able to express themselves freely within a chosen medium. However, the reality is that movie-going audiences, particularly Western cultures, have certain expectations when they see a film. One of these is a satisfying or 'happy' ending to proceedings. Of course, to challenge, play with and defy this convention is a way of making your work stand out from others. From some stellar and shocking final-act twists that recontextualize what you've just seen in the last two hours to endings that don't tie everything up in a neat little package, sometimes this subversion of our expectations (and movie rules) can be thrilling and leave its mark on us." - collider.com
