Great movies usually leave their audiences thinking, and films like The Shining and Inception stuck with audiences because of their confusing endings.

Typically, this means raising some questions about the story and concluding the film without providing any answers. This approach can sometimes tank a film’s reception, but there have been multiple cases of movies winning over audiences with confusing and ambiguous endings.
