The End of Story.

This is it.  The end of the movie.  The hero will have to use all of the cliched pithy wisdom that’s been spelled out for him by the older, wiser, less head-strong character who was surprisingly like him in his youth.  Older audience members can relate to both characters, and younger audience members are taxed to consider the wisdom of their elders more often.  All pretty much male-centric; the girl lead who seemed to completely be put off by the male lead has just about completely come around now, after the lull in the middle of the story where the hero’s sensitive side was exposed and he was vulnerable to change.  Finally embracing that change, in the apex of his final challenge, the young hero is compelled to apply the advice that was clearly and consistently broken down for him by the wise old male character and combine it with the sensitivity he’s learned from the female lead.  None of the base-line collateral characters believe in him.  The clear villains want to see him fail, and his new unlikely friends all cheer him on and have limitless faith in his new-found self.  The hero triumphs, the obvious villains remain spiteful and are embarrassed or made to look stupid.  The base-line characters now start to believe in the hero or are exposed to the new side of him, joining in with the triumphant hero’s unlikely new friends to rejoice and settle in with him as everyone celebrates victory at the end of the story.
