30 Unforgettable Film Scenes Where Characters Have Groundbreaking Realizations

“That word, I do not think it means what you think it means.”

I saw this movie in an original language theater here in Germany (mostly we dub movies). Audience was about half German, half English-speaking foreigners. During that scene literally every German groaned, followed by confused whispered questions from foreigners. Very funny.

Yes!!!

Se7en right?

Still want to know how he stuck that poster back up after he'd gone into the tunnel...

That moment when you realise will always stay with me.

Very good Mr. Gordon. May I use your phone please?

Never saw that one coming when I watched it.

i love this movie so much. gary oldham is that dude frfr...

My favourite film of all time

You're a battery, Neo

(it's a) nice day for a / red wedding

It was Verbal not Keaton

And it is for this reason, and for the full impact of this moment, that you watch star wars in the following order: IV, V, VI, rogue 1, I, II, III, solo, VII, VIII, IX. Don't get all pretensious on me and say you shouldn't watch VII-IX because they're just rehashes of IV-VI. They aren't. I actually like them. There, I said it. Also, I hated the ewoks. So if you think you want to skip an episode, I'd say please can they edit them out and edit out JarJar. Great.

He didn't realize it. He was told :O

Empire strikes back, not Star Wars.

poor joe pesci, between this death and the one in casino... guy couldn't catch a break!

"My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next."

Oh yeah, this was a great moment!

Again.

You think best on the can..!

this is one of the best "the killer isn't who you expected" moments ever. literally nobody guessed.

Die Hard is not only a Christmas movie, but it is the best one. Fight me.

"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!" 🤣

All of it? Thanks for the spoiler...😑 edit: /s not so serious 👍

i think it was called "the bus that couldn't slow down" :)

I've never seen the movie but the book, when you realize what's happening, it's soo shocking.

Edward Norton was amazing!

“Poor dumb Fredo.”—my dad

I was thinking of Shutter Island which was one of the craziest endings I remember and hope its on this list

I'm your Huckleberry

“Game over, man! Game over!”

Based on Infernal Affairs, an amazing film/trilogy

I've lived in Thailand and have visited the Kwai Bridge a couple of times. If in the vicinity, I highly recommend seeing the Krasae Cave and the surrounding stations along with the bridge itself

Dad — Dad — Daddy-O

Still one of the best suprise endings ever, really didn't see this one coming!

If you build it, he will come

I didn't like the movie but yes, that's a plot twist

This was such a cute fun movie

I think the bigger reveal was the alien...geez, that freaked me out as a kid. lol

Upvote for Gary Oldman!

One of my favorites. If I could re-do, I'd go into linguistics.

Haunting music, too. Original by Dave Berry (although Boy George did a cover version but not as good IMHO) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c9W2-uGvQQ

One of the best scenes in film. The dialogue is great and Walken and Hopper are mesmerizing.

I love this movie! Great twist.

This clown needs to stop being celebrated as if he was some hero. He was a freeloader, a thief and a poacher.

I think Ransom 1996 is TEN times better than this.. surprised it is not no.1 on this list. That is true portrayal of fear and realisation. Google it.

2 goes in, 1 goes out

Incendies, after Tarek/Nihad receives two letters, one addressed to the twin's father, one to their brother. He's both.
