The Departed (absolute finality) and No Country For Old Men (ambiguity).

I thought No Country For Old Men was really good until they just decided to quit writing and rolled credits. Weirdest ending I've seen.

The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas's is one of the ones I'd put as the best.

Also the Sky Crawlers and Grave of the Fireflies (I've never been able to watch the latter twice sad )

Definitely would have to be "The Departed". One of the best movies I have ever seen.

I think "The Family Man" is a really good movie. You don't know if it's a happy ending or not

Casablanca, hands down. With honorable mention to Cannonball Run. Everyone knows the traditional happy ending would have been Dean and Sammy winning the race.

Romanov: The Imperial Family a Russian film about the last years of the Imperial family when Nicholas II abdicated to the murder of his family and their servants. This is a more accurate execution scene then other films which is based on the Russian imperial family. Especially when the guy shot one of the daughters under the chin.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Knowing that it's not a perfect ending but hoping they make movies for the other two books :P
