From msn.com

10. The Others (2001)
9. Suspicion (1941)
8. Charade (1963)
7. Psycho (1960)
6. Witness for the Prosecution (1957)
5. Unbreakable (2000)

How the heck did Sixth Sense not make the list?!?!

Does anyone have any others they would like to add? I might add Secret Window or one of the Saw movies to the list...

The Crying Game? I remember the surprise that the lady was a dude, but was there also a twist at the end that I don't remember?

The 6th Sense

Skeleton Key - All though I wasn't real impressed with the movie the ending was pretty good.

Oh, for goodness sakes, the #1 twist at the end of a movie has to go to Citizen Kane, hands down! And any list that says otherwise is not much of a list.

I think the ending of the Sixth Sense was a little too obvious if you really paid attention to the movie.

Unfortunately for my son, I had the Sixth Sense figured out very early. He had seen it before and hoped it would surprise me. I still thought the movie was excellent.

Yeah, when the wife dropped the wedding ring in "The Sixth Sense", I blurted out, "Oh my gosh HE'S the one whose dead!" and MOML said, "Oh thank goodness you figured that out, I was so confused!"

Same thing in "The Matrix"; my friend saw it and just did not get it. I had to explain that what looked real was the illusion and the reality was the people in the tanks. She had to go back and watch it again to figure out the story.

Some people just want to go and see a simple story and be easily entertained. I like a puzzle to figure out. We all like to relax and air out in our own ways.

That movie was great! I like anything with Dakota Fanning - I think I hear something a while back that she has had a higher percentage of successful movies than anyone in Hollywood. I really hope she doesn't go trashey teenager and get all wierd!!!

You're right - Hide and Seek was great. Both of them did excellent jobs.

I know they are both kinda cheesy movies, but
Wild Things and
Employee of the month
both movies ended the exact same way and I loved it...

The Usual Suspects gets my vote...one of the only ones that truly surprised me...

Have you ever seen Employee of the Month? its got the same cop guy from wild things and has about just as many twists... Plus as a bonus its the cop guy plays a bank employee in this movie... Great fun!

haha peepers, nice... I saw that coming though peepers. I could tell, because Gary is the kind of man that will get down on his knees and put that [censored] in his mouth.

I don't like a puzzle to figure out. When I figure it out, it usually ruins the ending. I like to sit back and be entertained while a good puzzle comes together before my eyes.

I just watched this over the weekend...Definitely a twist ending. I thought it was a very good movie but of course I love Samuel L. Jackson.

There was another movie of the same title that came out a couple of years ago. I think it had Christina Applegate in it...

Not exactly the ending, but I saw the Matrix opening week in 1999 after seeing Larry Fishburn's trailer. I had no idea what to expect....But people living in cyberspace was not it. Still one of my favorite flicks of all time!

The Village and Unbreakable's ending were pretty good twists.

Also "No Way Out" with Kevin Costner...Although Ken Ober from remote control ruined the ending for me by blurting it out on TV before I saw it!

Empire Strikes Back - COme on...Vader Luke's father...No way!!
