​@@purplebean8989 In my opinion, I think the ending was perfect. They weren't killed for shock value at all. I really just can't get over how ignorant that statement is. The thing that makes the father regret working for Hitler isn't the mere fact that his son died, but the fact that if he didn't work for him at all, he and his family wouldn't have had moved there. Not only that, but if Hitler didn't make the camps at all, his son wouldn't have died. I don't mean to be rude but the only thing that seems lazy is the story going exactly as it was perceived to be going (the mother taking the kids and moving away). The fact of the matter is people died. Children died. The father was only able to see how wrong it was after his own son joined that number.

@@nitrogenz6921 I suggest that you please please read the book, that this movie is based on, and then come back and judge my opinion. There is many differences that make the ending better in the book, but the main big difference is it doesn't just end in shock value. The mother goes back to Berlin and leaves her husband behind. He becomes depressed and starts assaulting his own soldiers. It ends with the allies liberating the camp and ending the war, and the father goes with them willingly, hoping to die because of the guilt and grief about what happened to his son.

His death is the exact same in the book as the movie. The only difference is that his body is very found but his father pieces it together from the fact that his clothes were left by a hole under the fence. It's less that he's unwilling to follow Hitler's orders and more that he has a complete breakdown over his son's death. He's eventually taken away by Nazi soldiers and doesn't fight against it.

#1- Yeah that was so sad. I actually watched this movie when I was 11. It was for an assignment in 5th grade where we had to watch a movie we’d never seen before and then write a paper about the movie. Unfortunately for me I ended up choosing that movie and because I was under 13 I did watch it with a parent which was my mom. We were both utterly shocked at the ending. I’m pretty sure I was crying. Now when I think of that movie, that horrible ending is all I can remember. Even 16 years later I haven’t forgotten that ending.

Because Titanic was about the Titanic. Remember Me was not about 9/11. Granted, no one who showed up to the towers knew that their day was going to be all about 9/11 either. I can kind of see where making it a shock is a good way of portraying that. I'm not sure if that was their initial plan going in. But to a lot of viewers, it just seemed like "oh, guess they couldn't figure out how to end the movie so they just did this instead."

I didn't see the ending of the Woman In Black as a bad or negative ending, I think that Arthur earned the right to be with his wife and in the end, it was worth it, because he was really struggling as a single parent to his son, through the whole movie, you could feel how much Arthur struggled to do the right things by his child to be the breadwinner and take up his duties as a father and a dad. So, despite their violent deaths, they were all together again as a family in the afterlife.

If you read the book of the Boy in Strioed Pajamas it's taken from the wee boy's point of view. His innocence in what is going on and the wanting to build a friendship with the boy over the fence. Theres a part where he says how he wants pajamas the same as his and it hurts your heart. The worst is the end of the book..again all taken from the child's POV...right up until the dreaded scene. Absolutely NO nazi sympathising at all. Just a story to point out how adults lost the ability to see the humanity in each other and despite everything going on, two young children still found friendship. Making the adults involved feel disgraced and ashamed. Stunning and powerful story

The entire plot of the movie led up to that point.

*The Boy in the Striped Pajamas* There seems to be a lot of discussion about how this movie ends. My parents lived under Nazi occupation not far from Anne Frank's family home. Now anyone under 30 doesn't know what a "9/11" is anymore never mind the Holocaust. 1 in 10 Americans have never heard the word "Holocaust" before. 1 in 3 thought the death toll was fewer than 2 million. Nearly half of Americans could not name a single concentration camp. Are these the same air-heads who smile and take selfies at the gates of Auschwitz? It's not a Disney movie or Free Willy. Please someone tell me I'm not the only one.

Boy in the Striped Pajamas ending wasn't the worst part. Actually I rather thought it was the ONLY part of it that fit. The idea that Bruno and his family wouldn't know the full extent of what the Nazis were doing...that is bullshit. At Bruno's age, he would've been well educated into Hitler's beliefs and would've known exactly what was happening at that camp. Also it plays on the myth that prisoners just blindly accepted death at the camps, when there were a lot of recorded uprisings even at Auschwitz.

High Tension was pretty good. The ending was literally the only part of it that I hated. Not even just because I hate pretty much any horror movie where the protagonist was the killer all along, but because in this one it raises some legitimate questions about what her mind was even doing in scenes where you know the killer and protagonist are in different places doing different things at the same time. Idk, I just always get hung up on details like that. Same with Fight Club. Love the movie, but I'm like "so this guy was banging Helena Bonham Carter, and instead his brain decided to just...picture him hanging out downstairs? Is that like thinking of baseball?"
