Movie 180s

Dunno if this is a good topic, but have you ever seen things on the big screen that make you go 'huh', like turning out to be total opposite to what was initially portrayed? It could be anything but for me I remember movie characters doing complete 180s:
1. Tombstone: Johnny Ringo gets all aggressive in Doc Holiday's face when they first met, but by the end of the film he's scared as hell to get into a duel w him

2. Dawn of the Dead (2004): selfish lead mall security guard suddenly turns into hero

First 2 posts about Tombstone & Dusk Till Dawn....

I live near Tombstone, and their was a strip joined called Dusk Till Dawn (presumably the name was inspired by the movie) nearby until a few years ago. A couple of guys from the nearby army base were drag racing after leaving the joint hammered, and one was killed. It was shut down soon afterwards.

Back on topic - how about Dirty Harry befriending Big Ed Mustafa? He was one smart cop.

Cool story.

I'm not up-to-speed on Dirty Harry films, what's that about?

Biggest one for me was "Click" with Adam Sandler. What started off as a stupid but fun movie about an interesting concept to be able to fast forward the mundane parts of life..... ended up being some crazy emotional drama. Total 180. It's like the first half of the movie was filmed by a completely different director than the 2nd half.
