What kind of finishing animations have you seen? It activates sometimes when an enemy is close to death. I'll start a list:

Swords
Wolves:
- It jumps at you, you catch it by the throat and run it through.

Hobbes:
- You tap it on the shoulder, point in a direction, it looks that way then you stab it.
- For small ones, you pick it up, flip it upside down and punt it.
- Knock it over, stab it through, then jump over the corpse.
- Small hobbe leaps at you headfirst, and you headbutt its skull apart.

Man-like:
- Jump on their shoulders and break their neck with a twist.
- Parry, then slash through the gut.
- Throw sword down and break their neck with bare hands (Sand Furies)
- Jump and throw your sword into their chest.
- Jump and stab, Achilles style (from the movie Troy)
- Pick him up by neck, throw him over and down on his back then stab through the face.

Balverines:
- As they leap at you, you impale them mid-air.
- Pick it up by neck, throw it over and down on its back then stab through the face.

Minions:
- Four slashes across the body and they fall to pieces.

Hammers
Wolves:

Hobbes:

Man-like:
- Two strikes; the first knocks them face-first, the second splatters their skull with a satisfying WHUNCH!

Balverines:
- Same two striker as humans.
- You get behind it, bring the haft up across its neck, grip both sides and pull hard, crunching its neck.

Minions:
- Same two-striker.
- Swing it under-handed to nail them in the groin. All the parts fly upward.

Pistols
Wolves:

Hobbes:
- Shoot all limbs, then face.
- It swallows half your arm, then you pull the trigger and blow out the rear.

Man-like:
- Shoot all limbs, then face.
- Duck underneath and put in 3-4 shots as it leaps over you (Sand Furies).

Balverines:

Minions:
- Rapid fire 7-9 shots into it as it falls down facefirst.

Rifles
Wolves:

Hobbes:

Man-like:
- Hold it out one-handed, they lean back and go "oh no!" and you blast them in the face.
- Jump over them, then blast them in the back of the head.

Balverines:

Minions:
 
With a sword i have seen a parry then a slash across the body for mercs. And for hobbs you knock them down and stab them in the face.
 
How exactly does one initiate a "finishing move"? The most I've done is a downward stab into an enemy.
 
My Hero grabbed one of those little Hobbes by his ears, lifted him off the ground and kicked him in the nuts. Sent him flying real far. Much lulz was had.
 
Man-Like
When a Sand Fury jumped over my Hero, he threw his sword down and snapped the Furies neck while the Fury was still in the air. Pretty awesome I must say.

Pistol
My Hero pretty much just shot a Hobbe in all the limbs then went for a headshot. (Only been done on Hobbes,so I dont know if it works on other enemies)
 
Ive leaped in the air and chucked my sword into someones chest
 
I've seen a pistol finisher for the balverine where you one shot them from the hip cowboy style.
Another sword finisher for man type enemies is to run them through, pick them up over your head, and sling him off. In another great pistol finisher for manlike enemies you throw your pistol up in the air over your targets head, circle around their back as they follow the pistol, catch it, drop it to face level, pause for epic "oh s**t" moment, and blast them in the face.
 
Here's one, I was using a pistol to kill ghosts for the second Max and Sam quest, when one leaps at me. I shove the pistol into his mouth and fire.
Another is where you're using a sword against a balvarine, and when it charges you grab its shoulder and pivot around it, impaling it through the heart from the back.
