Fallen, but it's not really that good a movie. Just the best twist-ending ever.

The twist is good, but made great by Sympathy for the Devil.

I thought "Time Is On My Side" was the song at the end?

No that's just what the demon sings throughout, and opening titles.

Fallen is one of my favorite "mystery" movies.

First movie that popped in my mind.

Not sure we can actually count 'The Empire Strikes Back' as it is, technically, just the middle part of a 3-act story.

As for other orig. thoughts of my own, I have none.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid.
Tora! Tora! Tora! is kind of obvious from the start that the bad guys will win.
I think the bad guys win in The Spanish Prisoner, but I've yet to figure out anything about that movie.
One could argue the bad guys win in Brazil, but that's debateable.
The good guys lose in Breaker Morant, I suppose that's a bad guys winning.

I disagree with this. All Balboa wanted was to "go the distance", which he certainly did. For all intents and purposes, he absolutely destroyed Apollo.

Empire Strikes Back seems to be the obvious answer.

thats a trilogy, and you know in the 3rd film, a direct contination, [censored] will be rectified.

Alrington Road is a good one until they make Alrighton Road 2: cul de sac bitch (in which case the son tries and gets revenge and could even be the bad guy of the film).

Heat.... Sort of.
