10 Insane Endings From Recent Movies
10. Better Man
Better Man is about as insane as musical biopics get, depicting pop icon Robbie Williams as an anthropomorphic chimp as a reflection of how Williams views himself - totally unevolved.
The film climaxes with Williams' (Jonno Davies) record-breaking 2003 performance at Knebworth Festival, where he finds himself overcome by his own thoughts of self-doubt - symbolised by past versions of himself verbally abusing him.
This leads to a mesmerising sequence where Robbie clashes with his other selves in a surreal, battle royale-esque fight to the death, stabbing the other Robbies with a sword while accompanied by Williams' anthemic "Let Me Entertain You."
Though a moving sequence follows in which Robbie reconciles with his father Peter (Steve Pemberton), it's the fight scene that's most likely to stick with viewers as the end credits roll, the battle finally allowing Robbie to realise that he needs to address his personal issues.
Can we get more bold, off-the-wall musical biopics like this, please?
