in/at the end of the movie

Hi everyone,

I am in doubt about which is correct:

1. He gets killed in the end of the movie.
2. He gets killed at the end of the movie.

Thank you.

Use #2.

or He gets killed in the end. Right?

Yes, that's OK.

Although in that context, "in the end" means "eventually". It is possible for someone, for example, to be killed "in the end" but for the film to still carry on after their death. "In the end" doesn't necessarily mean "at the end of the film".
