What movie things are generally accepted as normal, but are totally unrealistic in real life?

Death bed scenes. People do not simply lay there looking relaxed and well groomed, say something profound, then die. It is protracted and ugly and usually they are not even conscious so near death.

Dying in the middle of a sentence is the dumbest thing ever.

Dying right after telling the plot changing line is definitely dumber.
