I'd argue that, while Braveheart and 300 end with the deaths of the main characters, the final battle that truly ends both pictures is a defeat for the bad guys.
They would fall more under "movies where the main character dies" than anything.

The movie has to have the real bad guy who is one of the main characters defeat the good guys (gals) and come out triumphantly.
My vote for the day:

A lot of horror movies do this. Two that come to mind are:
The Evil Dead
Jeepers Creepers
I'll also add:
Unforgiven
