What relevance has Die Hard got to real life? If your corporate building is taken over by German uberterrorists, when in doubt use the ventilation shafts?

For me its "LIFE". It was a comedy, but to me, it was completely depressing. At the end of the day, the 2 guys stayed in Jail their whole lives for a crime they didnt commit. I found it really depressing.

Oh I forgot to answer the topic ...

Blow. Even if she did visit him in prison afterwards [I had to check on Wikipedia to ease my mind] it's still very depressing stuff. Especially the bit where his daughter is sitting on her suitcase outside the house.

Alot of hyped up flicks that amount to very little really depress me. You know, ones like Spiderman 3, Terminator 3 and 4 etc.

Grave of the Fireflies is heartbreaking. Requiem For a Dream is another one as well.

A recent example for me would be The Road. Seriously bleak.

I think there's confusion between sad and depressing going on in this thread thus far.

I enjoyed it though. Same as I did with The Proposition which is another depressing film.

My Girl is pretty gut wrenching.

@Shaun, the end of the film had me in floods of tears, but more out of the atmosphere. The outcome didn't upset me terribly because I had read the book already [though it is very different to the film]

Forest Gump was quite depressing......loads of highs and lows.....

also I agree with Stu about BLOW, end of that movie really made me think of things differently and stop doing stuff because I didnt wanna end up like him....

If we're talking about bleak ending, it doesn't get bleaker than this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hHFhVasEgA

Any of the Lord of the rings films depressed the hell out of me.
Also any film directed by that M Night Shallahaahaananan who made that kid see dead people.
