In that film (brains in a jar), you don't escape to reality, you escape to a different level of the matrix (one where you've got superpowers). Last shot in the film will have a lot in common with the last shot in Terry Gilliam's Brazil.

It won't get great results from test audiences.

> Last shot in the film

What do you mean by that? (Not a native speaker and out of ideas on how to search for it)

Literally? I'm talking about the last scene in the film, right at the end. The last thing that happens before the credits.

The film's nearly 40, and I still don't want to spolier it. Suffice to say, it made me feel physically sick.
