What are the different types of movie endings?
The ending is the first thing you remember, and arguably the hardest part of any
story to get right. Everyone knows the feeling of a film that lets the whole thing fall
flat in the last five minutes — and everyone knows the opposite, the ending you carry
out of the theater. Part 1 of this series breaks down nine types of movie endings,
which is really nine different arguments about what a story is for. The best movie
endings aren’t the cleverest ones. They’re the ones the rest of the film earned.
We start with the cliffhanger ending — The Empire Strikes Back, Inception, The
Italian Job, The Thing — and the difference between cutting a story off and leaving it
in permanent suspense. Then the ambiguous ending: Enemy, Blade Runner, 2001:
A Space Odyssey, and Take Shelter, where Jeff Nichols explains what his ending is
actually about. Next the twist ending, through The Usual Suspects, Oldboy, and The
Sixth Sense, and why the best ones only pay off on a second viewing. And the full
circle ending, from The Godfather and Blue Velvet to Hellboy, Her, and Parasite.
From there the register shifts. The bittersweet ending — La La Land, Eternal
Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Toy Story 3, Avengers: Endgame — and why it’s the
hardest of these film endings to balance. The death of the protagonist, literal in
Uncut Gems and Network, metaphorical in Shutter Island and Fight Club. Then the
reunion, in Finding Nemo, The Shawshank Redemption, and Interstellar. The
farewell, in Logan, Boyhood, and Luca. And finally the laugh, in Dr. Strangelove,
Burn After Reading, and Some Like It Hot.
Which of these types of story endings belongs on your film depends on the themes
you introduced, the tone you already set, and what you want the audience carrying
out of the theater with them. This is Part 1 — in Part 2 we get into the specific
cinematic techniques that make these endings land, and why filmmakers reach for
them. If you’re working out how to end a screenplay of your own, start here
