I love-hated Chinatown because the ending is so damn nihilistic. What are some other entertaining movies that have similar endings?
Edit: PostScript, I found a good article.

Fallen (1998), great movie. Denzel Washington plays a detective hunting a serial killer copy cat but that's just the start. Amazing cast, supernatural storyline, great plot.
I still can't listen to "time is on my side" without thinking of this movie. 10/10 gave me nightmares as a kid
Well shit, now I am wondering if that was intentional.
Excellent movie!
Heh I didn't even think of it till just now...
I watched it in the theater and have had it on DVD since that was released and didn't even think of the possible pun/double meaning until your post!
I had zero knowledge about this movie when I watched it and it really blew me away. I still sometimes think about it today.
