10 Insane Endings From Recent Movies
6. Den of Thieves 2: Pantera
Though Den of Thieves 2: Pantera doesn't quite one-up the first film's wild twist, it nevertheless arrives at a barmy finale few will see coming.
The bulk of the movie sees shady cop Nick O'Brien (Gerard Butler) teaming up with his former foe Donnie Wilson (O'Shea Jackson Jr.) to help carry out an ultra-ambitious heist.
The film emphasises the growing bond between the two despite previously being at odds, and it genuinely seems like Nick has abandoned his desire to capture Donnie in favour of enriching himself.
But once the heist is complete at the end of the film, Donnie and the rest of his team are arrested, as it's revealed that Nick ratted them out.
Yet there's one more sting in the tail to come - though it appears that Nick has decided to rejoin the side of the law, the final sequence has Donnie and company being being sprung from custody by the Sicilian mafia, which a guilt-riddled Nick has helped facilitate.
Nick's wishy-washy allegiances are damn ridiculous, but it sure is fun to watch.
