Do you have examples of movies that have a huge spike in stakes almost at the end?

Examples: Se7en, Rogue One

Please use spoilers if you want to explain why

Only The Brave.

If you go in without knowing the story, it starts off like the plot arc of a sports movie:

  • An outsider joins, and struggles to fit in with a close-knit team
  • The team is trying for a promotion
  • We see teaching of the team's methods
  • Victory at a smaller event
  • Outsider is accepted as part of the team
  • Long period of training for the big event

Unlike the sports movies, the last few minutes of this are not at all victorious...
