Summary: perfect thriller movie
Review: A super slick thriller witch kept me on the edge of my seat for the total running time. The actors are absolutely excellent in this film, especially Spacey, who gives out one of his best bad guy roles since his other classic, Seven. The movie takes you through twists and turns all the way, with a stunning montage wich makes all the rest make perfect sense. A must-see.

Summary: CLEVER
Review: It's because of this movie that Kevin Spacey is my favorite actor. His performance as Verbal Kint is mesmorizing. After seeing this move, you too will ask, "Who is Keyser Soze?". It's not an action packed film, so be patient. Once the plot unravels, you'l be hooked. I guarantee it. Great actors turning in great performances in a great movie. What else can one ask??

Summary: A faultless film
Review: In 1995 a film was made that not only gained commercial and critical acclaim but also made the career of one of the world's greatest actors, Kevin Spacey. 'The Usual Suspects' is a film like no other, a fabulous story, fantastic characters, a sympathetic protagonist and a twist that cannot be rivaled in modern cinema.The story follows a group of five guys, all of who are convicted crims who are trying to keep their heads above water and avoid prosecution. However when they are all questioned in relation to the same crime this unlikely group of characters forge a plan to hit 'New York's finest taxi service' a group of corrupt cops who get kickbacks for taxing convicted criminals around the city. Through this job the group retreat to L.A where they continue to do criminal work, this escalates to a point where the five are sent down to the docks to stop a drug deal going down. It is here though that the narrative takes a turn that if mentioned will ruin the film. The performances in the film are brilliant, as always Spacey's performance is amazing his pure air on camera makes the audience sit up and watch. In playing somewhat of a comic relief role Benicio Del Toro is fabulous and often hilarious. The work of Gabriel Byrne can never be underrated and in 'The Usual Suspects' he shines. Pete Poslethweight is the veteran on screen and plays Kobiashi, the personal lawyer to Kaiser Sozie and represents the antagonist in the piece who takes the five out of their hedonistic dream world and introduces them to the real world. The direction in the film is masterful as the viewer truly gets a feeling of the nitty, gritty world of crime and is one of the few films where the twist isn't given away prematurely. Bryan Singer has truly created a masterpiece of modern cinema that has not been surpassed on the micro/macro level since. The film is faultless; there is nothing that can really be improved. I can't wait for the DVD special edition

It is so awesome and so great. You will never ever forget it and will want to watch it all over again...and again.
It starts out as a simple crime cop/robber movie. But quickly morphs into a modern day urban legends movie that simply rocks.

Summary: Finally Getting the DVD Treatment It Deserves
Review: "The Usual Suspects" is one of those movies that simply makes you say "wow." When I first saw this film in the theater, it was only because the movie that my wife and I wanted to see was sold out. Without knowing anything about it -- not a word -- we bought our tickets and headed into the auditorium. Little did I know that within the next two hours I would be witness to one of the finest pieces of moviemaking ever created. Bryan Singer's wonderful direction and Chris McQuarrie's story are flawless. The movie engrosses from start to one-whopping-of-a finish and, like you've probably already heard, will make you want to see it again. The characters are memorable, with Benecio del Toro's and Steven Baldwin's roles really standing out. And Kevin Spacey, as in everything he does, is masterful. When the film was first released on DVD, there were the "usual" extras, but now, finally, the masterpiece has been given the treatment it so rightfully deserves, with deleted scenes, better commentary, high-def transfer, and a whole truckload of stuff that fans of the movie -- and film buffs in general -- will cherish. A "Special Edition" was in order, and now, it's here. "The Usual Suspects" is a movie worthy of your time. This DVD will see to that -- I can guarantee it.

Summary: A convoluted plot
Review:
"The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world he didn't exist," says con man Kint (Kevin Spacey), speaking of the "heavy" in the movie, Keyser Soze--whose identity is kept under wraps until the end of the film.
Soze is depicted as a criminal mastermind who stays in the shadows, using people at every turn to attain his goals, which themselves lack clarity. Of course, the police force is under his thumb. Does anyone ever make a picture involving police in which they are not corrupt? There must be a reason why the usual fare foisted onto the American theatergoer always, ALWAYS shows our paid public servants (police, FBI, CIA, prison officers, etc.) as worse than the criminals we pay them to catch and keep behind bars. Anyway, this is a convoluted, confusing drama with a lot of explosions, violence and nastiness. Probably a lot of people will enjoy it. Joseph Pierre

Summary: The most intelligent and intrigueing movie ever?
Review: What can i say? After the first time i saw this movie, my heart had a bmp over 4000 or something. It was amazing. It's like 1 hour and 30 minutes of great action builds up to the 10 minute ending, the most intense 10 minutes in the history of moving pictures. It's fantastic. And the second time you see it, you notice things you didn't notice before when you didn't know the ending, and you realize how complex and detailed this movie really is. It's a true masterpiece. And Kevin Spaceys achievement is just great. I've seen this movies about 20 times or so, and it's still great, but nothing can beat the first time you see this. You can tell that this is not just some movie to make money, they've all put down a lot of work with it. You owe it to yourself to see this one.
