The Usual Suspects

Rating:
Summary: God, I love this movie
Review: The Usual Suspects is one of my "desert island" movies (if I were stranded on a desert island, I'd want this with me). Along with the Oscar-winning performance by Kevin Spacey, EVERY other performance is top-notch. The story is and old-fashioned crime mystery/thriller; a bit complex but incredibly taut, and crackles with great wit and fascinating intrigue. The soundtrack is superb, and propels the movie along without you realizing it (which really is the point of it, right?). It's one of the very few movies you'll ever see where as soon as it's over your immediate reaction will be "WOW! Now I need to see it all over again!" Watching it twice only enhances the enjoyment.

It's *that* good.
