Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the most shocking suspense thrillers this decade.
Review: This movie is full of plot twists and surprises you up to the very end. This is definitely worth watching mor than once.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: makes rooting for the bad guys the right choice!
Review: This movie is filled with twists and turns you never expect, one of those films that you "just know" how it's going to end-but your guess changes every time the scene changes!!! Some complain about the ending but it left me w/ a sense of calm and an ironic bit of justice.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kevin Spacey dazzles in "Usual Suspects..."
Review: A smart, violent, stylish film and an instant-classic (not to mention a hunk-fest for the females in the audience -- sorry, as a female and a Spacey fan, I had to say it). Also, a must-see for action or "whodunit" lovers. Now MY only question is, what's Maltin talking about?? The film's twists and turns are EXPLAINED by the film's knockout ending, not obliterated by it. Watch closely and it's all very logical. Maltin (and the amazon.com reviewer) fell asleep on the job on that one -- disregard them. The film never sacrifices cleverness for style -- it's a Chinese puzzle-box, with every clue falling into place for those who look closely.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WHAT??
Review: i was very sleepy when i watched the movie for the first time,but then i jumped up at the end and laughed so so hard, cuz I SIMPLY COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I SEE. now i have the VHS and i've watched it over and over again with friends(some hated it cuz they weren't paying attention) but now i'm waiting for the DVD of it cuz i always believe you should get the best of anything,especially a masterpiece like TUS.

look closer.

Summary: Remarkable!
Review: At the heart of this tidy little thriller is Christopher McQuarrie's Oscar-winning screenplay, which screeches around all sorts of twists and turns, coming to an abrupt (albeit surprising) stop at the end. Crackling with wonderful dialogue and performances, sporting the most perfect ending to a movie I have ever seen, as well as being certainly the most clever, THE USUAL SUSPECTS is, obviously, a *****-star film. So: "How do you shoot the devil in the back? What if you miss?"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Masterfully done with a twist that will shock you
Review: This is one of my favorite movies. The storyline and characters are great, from the quiet Verbal to the eerily distant McManis. It is a story of criminals brought together by a mysterious force that they will never fully understand. The ending is one of the most shocking you will ever see, and you will think about it for days after you see it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You MUST see this film!!!!!
Review: Simply Stunning! The only way to describe this film! I would give anything to be able to see it again for the first time! The acting is fabulous, the screenplay so complex that it leaves the viewer in awe. As one actor said himself (although about a different film) the pyrotechnics are emotional. Absolutely! The whole cast is amazing although Spacey stands out aboove all others. SEE THIS FILM!!!! You will not be disappointed!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I thought....
Review: It was extremely well done. Most movies that have flashback sequences to them either lose you or bore you, but this one did neither one. If you like suprise endings see, "The Usual Suspects"!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Intellectual and has action!
Review: Kevin Spacey gives an excellent performance as Verbal Kent. The movie has the right amount of action to keep you interested, but doesn't mock your mind. The timeline is also interesting, switching between the present and past. Overall, this was just a great movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: one of the best twist endings in the history of film!!!
Review: If your a fan of movies, you have to see Ususal Suspects. You will be rooting for the bad guys and gasping for air as the plot changes and just when you think you've got things figured out, it changes agian. Hang tight and enjoy one of the greatest screenplays of all time, black and white or color.
