Kind of jumping off the recent overrated movies thread, but what are movie endings that you think perfectly seal the movie off and make you feel good? For me it's
1) Star Wars: Episode 6, Ewok celebration is easily my favorite ending
2) Django Unchained
3) Trading Places
4) Edge of Tomorrow
5) The Dark Knight Rises
Honorable mentions: Caddyshack, Indiana Jones 3, The Truman Show, Major League

The Usual Suspects
Yes. It makes you question the entire movie.
Wayne's World
The Departed
Nice to see Matt Damon's piece of shit character get what he deserves
+1
I came here to say The Departed. You think the shittiest character in the whole movie successfully fucked everyone over and got away with it and then BOOM! Marky Mark in a track suit has something else to say about it.
He was minor but one of my favorite Mark Wahlberg roles
Never Let Me Go
prisoners
Backdoor Sluts 9
It makes Crotch Capers 3 look like Naughty Nurses 2!
Fury - Kinda sucked they all died but the ending scene was cool
I Care A Lot…stupid bitch lol
The Shawshank Redemption
Seriously, if you haven't watched it, please do.
Almost put that one as well, perfect ending

Hell yeah

This is expressly against your question, but I find a great satisfaction in movies with the bleakest of endings. Definitely at odds with the Ewok scene for sure. Examples available upon request.
While it isn't a movie, The Clone Wars Season 7 finale is a perfect example of this. Also, you don't have a heart if Ewok celebration doesn't boost your mood.
I'm not saying that I don't like the Ewok celebration. I'm fine with them banging on a bunch of dead stormtroopers' helmets. I'm just saying that there's such a thing as endings that "hurt so good," at least to me. Just absolutely soul-crushing stuff, but it fits in really well with the movie or is well thought-out.
Sleepers - such a great ending and movie overall!
Inception for the closure
There will be blood
Se7en
Godfather 1 and 2
Who hurt you?
Joker
The Others.
If you haven't seen it, definitely go in blind and don't google it.
Marley and Me because I'm fucking psychopath.
Remember the Titans
El secreto de sus ojos
Have heard only goods about this movie
It’s very psychologically disturbing. The hottest girl I’ve ever hooked up with said it was her favorite movie. So I watched it and then became very scared of her - lol.
