The Sixth Sense definitely has one of the biggest surprise endings. Also, Identity, The Others, and even The Notebook also have some nice surprises. What other movies have some nice shocking surprise endings, endings that you don't see coming and make your mouth drop open and say, "Oh my goodness, I did not see that one coming!"?

This isn't necessarily the ending, but i was quite surprised at what was really goin on in the movie The Forgotten. I was just watching the movie expecting it to be about some off the wall kidnapping or she was crazy or something. And then the scene comes when the person is snatch up into the sky! Scared the hell out of me!
And I think Premonition ended different than i expected. Not terribly surprising, but I was sure it would go the other way.

Body Heat.
If you'd like to read a short story with a good surprise ending
read THE NECKLACE by Guy de Maupassant.
The Necklace" tells the story of a nineteenth-century middle class French couple, Monsieur and Madame Mathilde Loisel. Monsieur Loisel is a clerk in the ministry of public information. Madame Loisel is a beautiful young lady, who might have been married to a richer man, if her family wasn't poor. Monsieur Loisel is invited to a distinguished party, and wishes to take his wife with him. Madame Loisel, however, is hesitant to attend, complaining that "there's nothing so humiliating as looking poor in the middle of a lot of rich women." In addition to acquiring a new dress, at her husband's suggestion she borrows a diamond necklace from her friend, Madame Jeanne Forestier, and attends the party. She is the wonder of the night, and all the men wish to dance with her. Disastrously, Madame Loisel somehow loses the necklace during the evening.
Monsieur and Madame Loisel decide they must buy an identical diamond necklace from the 'Palais Royal' as a replacement for Madame Forestier. Unable to bear the shame of this, they do not inform Madame Forestier of the change and spend the next ten years of their lives paying off the debts, which costs them about thirty-six thousand francs, a fortune at the time. Both Monsieur and Madame Loisel are forced to take on extra jobs and live in abject poverty. At the end of the ten years, Madame Loisel, now older, tougher and less graceful from years of hard manual labor, has an opportunity to tell her old friend of the lost necklace. Madame Forestier is shocked and informs Madame Loisel that her original necklace was, in fact, an imitation "....worth at the very most five hundred francs!"

Layer Cake had a suprise ending...the movie itself kinda sucked but I didn't see the ending coming.
the first Saw movie had me guessing right up until about 2 seconds before the killer was revealed. As for the rest of the Saw movies, if you've seen one, you've seen 'em all.
I saw the Sixth Sense before I saw the Others so I pretty much had that one figured out, it wasn't much of a suprise.

The Village has a good one. The Reaping had a surprising ending which set it up sor a sequel. Also Stay Alive, even though I don't totally get that one.
