...Too much drink.
Having recently watched Cypher, I guess this is the most fresh in my memory. While it's an okay Sci-Fi film, I found the ending scene absolutely brilliant:

At the end of the film, we find out that our protagonist Morgan Sullivan is in fact Sebastian Rooks, the man who was supposedly assisting Morgan throughout his ordeal. What I loved is that the character is played by Jeremy Northam, an English actor, who puts on a generic croaky American accent (a bit like how Hugh Laurie does in House). However, at the very end when Morgan has reverted back to being Rooks, he returns to speaking in an English accent.

It's only a few lines at most, and it's a very subtle voice change, but it works incredibly well. The central point of the plot being about brainwashing and end up being someone else completely - for Rooks, that includes believing yourself to being an American, complete with psuedo accent.
