We asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us which sad movie moments completely caught them off guard. Here are the emotional results.
🚨 Spoilers ahead, people! 🚨
1.
In Avengers: Endgame, when Tony sacrificed himself to save everyone and bring back the people who were lost in The Blip, and Peter and Pepper said their tearful goodbyes.
Marvel
“I was not expecting Tony Stark to go out like that. The goodbyes to him made me cry, along with the funeral scene. I’ve seen every Avengers movie in the theater, and it felt like I was saying goodbye to a friend at the end of this one. I was devastated.”
2.
In A Star Is Born, when Ally sang Jackson’s unfinished song as a tribute to him after his death, and then the camera abruptly cut to the first time he played it for her.
MGM
“His death wasn’t a surprise if you’ve seen any of the other movies, and Ally’s final ballad is totally heart-wrenching, so it’s totally appropriate for people to get teary as she sings his farewell song. BUT the moment that I did not see coming was when the camera cut directly from Ally’s performance to Jackson singing it for her at the piano for the very first time. I just didn’t see that transition coming at all, and it really hit me.”
3.
In Remember Me, when the love story was finally coming together, but then the camera zoomed out to randomly reveal that Robert Pattinson’s character was in one of the Twin Towers on 9/11, and he died.
Summit Entertainment
“The 9/11 twist in Remember Me really wrecked me. I cried because, like, who was expecting that???”
4.
In Coco, when Miguel returned back to his family and sang “Remember Me” to Coco, and she started singing along because she remembered who her father was.
Disney
“When Miguel gets back to the Land of the Living and sings to his great-grandma…I sob when she slowly smiles, starts remembering, and sings along with Miguel. I never expected my heart to be ripped out like that.”
5.
In Jojo Rabbit, when Jojo was playing in the town square and suddenly discovered his mother’s shoes, realizing she’d been hanged, and he tried to tie her shoes but couldn’t.
Fox Searchlight Pictures
“The instant you saw the shoes, you knew exactly what had happened. I teared up the second I saw them, especially because of the built-up shots and the relationship between the two characters.”
6.
In Last Christmas, when Kate learned that Tom was actually dead the whole time, and his heart was the one that saved her during her transplant.
Universal Pictures
“When she figured out that she only imagined him for the entire time…my mom and I watched this movie together, and we both just couldn’t stop crying.”
7.
In The Sixth Sense, when Cole finally told his mom about his special abilities, and then he revealed what happened when he spoke to his dead grandmother.
Buena Vista Pictures Distribution
“I literally teared up just by thinking about this scene.”

8.
In I Am Legend, when Will Smith’s character had to kill his dog — his only living friend in the entire world — after it got infected.
Warner Bros. Pictures
“I still can’t talk about it. I went into the movie thinking it’d be an action-y kinda thing, and I sobbed.”
9.
In Love Actually, when Karen opened her Christmas gift and realized that her husband gave the necklace to another woman, so she excused herself, cried for two minutes, and then had to pull herself together for her kids.
Universal Pictures
“It’s a gut-wrenching moment because she now knows that her husband bought the necklace as a Christmas gift for another woman. The affair is now a certainty, but she has to slap a smile over her tears in front of everyone. So awful!”
10.
In What to Expect When You’re Expecting, when everything was super happy and cheery, but then it cut to Rosie having a miscarriage in the middle of the night.
Lionsgate
“This was such a happy rom-com, but the miscarriage was quite unexpected and occurred so early on in the film, so it really caught me off guard. The whole thing was very well handled, though.”
11.
In Knives Out, when Marta found out that Harlan’s death was avoidable, and he would have survived if he simply listened to her about calling 9-1-1.
Lionsgate
“It’s a freaking murder-comedy movie, and I still choked up. Also, Detective Blanc telling Marta that she was a good nurse really hit me. Great movie. Just great.”
12.
In Inside Out, when Bing Bong sacrificed himself so Joy could save Riley, and he faded away forever.
Disney / Pixar
“Inside Out hurt me. A lot. Bing Bong was assumed to be the comic relief character who we needed to move the story along — he wasn’t meant to die! As he just slowly faded away and said, ‘Take her to the moon for me, okay?’ it broke my heart. It was the first time I ever cried in a movie theater, and it was full-on BAWLING. 😭”
13.
In La La Land, when the final montage showed Mia and Sebastian living happily ever after, but then it cut back to reality, and it was revealed that Mia actually ended up with a different guy.
Summit Entertainment
“I really thought they would end up together. I cried for three days straight.”
14.
In One Day, when Emma was casually riding her bike and randomly got hit by a truck, which instantly killed her.
Focus Features
“Anne Hathaway’s character finally found happiness, only to be hit by a bus while riding her bike. It was completely out of nowhere. I was traumatized.”
15.
In The Best Man Holiday, when Lance had to say goodbye to his wife, Mia, and he fell to the ground in tears.
Universal Pictures
“When the casket lowers and Lance falls to the ground, crying…I can’t.”
16.
In Parasite, when everything got flipped upside down, and Ki-Jung was attacked and murdered
in front of her family at the birthday party.
Barunson EA
“It was bittersweet to see that Ki-woo somehow survived, but this scene was so unexpected and had my emotions running wild.”
17.
In Kingsman: The Golden Circle, when Merlin sacrificed himself and stepped on the land mine so Eggsy and Harry could save the world.
20th Century Fox
“The ‘Country Roads’ song destroys me instantly because of this Kingsman moment.”
18.
In Atonement, when Briony revealed that she completely made up what happened, so in reality Robbie and Cecilia died and never got to live happily ever after.
Focus Features
“I sat for about 10 minutes after I finished Atonement, just angry and ugly-crying. Wow, I’m going to start crying again because I’m thinking about it.”
19.
And in Click, when Michael realized that he abandoned his entire family for decades, and then he collapsed in the rain and said his final goodbyes to everyone before dying.
Columbia Pictures
“I remember watching Click and thinking it was going to be a funny Adam Sandler movie. Then I was hit with that storyline and scene out of nowhere. I was sobbing and slightly pissed because I really needed an uplifting comedy. I still can’t watch it without crying.”
