Summary: At Last A Film To Answer the Question "Who is Keyszer Soze?"
Review: Every now and again, a film emerges from the Hollywood ooze to completely redefine the preconceptions of its genre. Examples of this welcome trend include "Unforgiven," "Blade Runner", and "The Lost Boys", to name an eclectic few. "The Usual Suspects" does for crime thrillers what "Alien" did for science fiction--it causes fans to reevaluate what drew thm to the genre in the first place and rekindles their enthusiasm for it. Usually, movies of this sort tend to have largely-unknown casts. "The Usual Suspects" is all the more remarkable for having an all-star cast, akin to "The Dirty Dozen". Chazz Palmintieri plays the hard-nosed customs official determined to get to the bottom of a drug deal gone bad; Gabriel Byrne plays a criminal struggling to hove to the straight-and-narrow, Kevin Spacey shines as the handicapped reluctant informant Verbal Kint, while Kevin Pollack and the remainder of the cast represent a cross-section of modern thuggery. This sordid bunch is brought together in a lineup for a crime none will own up to, during which they decide to team up for a daring raid on a drug lord's haul. As with "Reservoir Dogs" and other classics of the genre, things go downhill fast from there. Much of the action is relayed in the form of a flashback from Verbal Kint's interrogation. Anyone who doubts Spacey's status as the finest actor in film today need only reference his role here as the complex Kint to become true believers. It would be a crime to reveal any more of the plot ir the astonishing climax, but suffice it to say that if you enjoy the way tightly-plotted movies like "The Sixth Sense" or "Presumed Innocent" pull the rug out from under you just when you think you know the score, "The Usual Suspects" will make your night, or my name isn't Keyszer Soze.

Summary: Don't read the reviews!
Review: I like nothing better than stumbling upon a really good movie you know nothing about. Like when you click to a late night flick and are so transfixed by it you stay up to 4 in the morning watching it. The Usual Suspects was like this for me. I rented it as soon as it was on video... I didn't know anyting about it. I watched it and just sat there and said WOW. Wow. Don't READ REVIEWS! They will destroy the movie for you. Take my word and just watch it. You'll be a Kevin Spacey fan for life...

Summary: Excellent and Entertaining for all adults.
Review: I don't often buy CD's or tapes because I generally don't think most movies are worth it but this is definitely the exception to the rule. Foremost is the concept of the movie. While not necessarily original it is so well done that you are drawn in from the beginning. It's one of those movies that you definitely put on pause to discuss a point with friends or since you don't want to miss anything, before you go to the fridge. The movie is in half narrative/action and just action as told by Kevin Spacey's character. The acting is excellent with Kevin earning his supporting actor Oscar hands down. There are no give aways, no false leads to throw you off the scent and no gratuitous scenes to cater to a particular actors ego. I have reviewed the movie several times and while hind sight lends itself to the truth you still have to give the director credit for being able to present a story with twist and turns that aren't at the expense of the viewer's intelligence. For first time viewers you will never guess the ending and for those of us who have seen it time and again it's always a nice addition for when you are entertaining friends and families because no one will be able to stop talking about it for hours afterwards.

Summary: Wow
Review: "The Usual Suspects" is an unbelievable film, full of intrigue, misdirection and suspense. The casting is just fantastic and as always, Kevin Spacey (Best Supporting Actor as Verbal Kint) shines. Remember the end of Casablanca? When the Policeman tells a subordinate to "round up the usual suspects"? Well, here they are five criminals with nothing in common. Or so they thought. Keyser Sose knows the truth though. The plot for this movie is one of the best I have ever witnessed. Full of dark characters and twists, it is guaranteed to entertain and baffle. I only wish I had selective amnesia, so I could watch the movie over and over again like the first time. You can't go wrong with "The Usual Suspects." It will surely withstand multiple viewings.

Summary: One of the great thrillers of all time truly epic.
Review: The Usual Suspects is the kind of film that you get what you put into it.It is a movie that you watch and then determine your own thoughts about it but it definately a movie that director Bryan Singer didn't want you to think you could figure out quickly.It is well respected be cause of the fact that it is a complex film and will , make you think.The Director spent time on beleving in this story and the charachter development. A drug deal goes wrong on a large boat and many people die somehow the drugs also seem to missing , the main suspect seems to be Dan Keaton played by (Gabriel Byrne)who devises a plan for this drug deal to go down the polices only witness is a lymping man whom was part of Keaton's crew played perfectly by (Kevin Spacey) who won an , Academy Award for his performance he tells about how his crew thwarted the police and took plans and information from a welthy lawyer named kobayashe. He also mentions a name that many people fear a name that even the mention of it would be terrible the police push this man to see weither this Kiser Sose is just a sheild or a ploy to cover up who to blame once you see the suprise ending youll wonder weither you didn't think of the ending sooner but when you watch it again if you watch closely you will see that all of the peices start to fit. This movie has the original theatrical trailer and a great and worth watching commentary by Bryan Singer good options and an incredible movie that you will want to watch over and over its a fair bet you won't get tired of watching it.

Summary: A metaphor for the 90's
Review: Stunning, dazzling, all too true! The movie is a helluva ride the first time seen and then gets better. But on several occasions, when rooting for these guys, I stopped and reminded myself that these guys are all amoral killers. What make this film relevant is the Keyser Soze character who succeeded brilliantly because he was willing to break all the rules and bury his humanity, just as legitimate business in the 90's did, and we all cheered and envied their success. The other relevant portrayal was the federal agents too wrapped up in themselves and their culture to see what was in front of their faces.

Summary: One Fine Story
Review: One of the best peices of cinema to ever grace the silver screen. The twists and turns of the tale leave thinking you have a few of the answers but knowing that you don't have anywhere near all of them. Little can be said to anyone who has not yet seen this film exept DO SO NOW!.
