Pros: 5 men become stars with this movie Cons: Not for Kids
The phrase coined by the best movie ever, Casablanca, is easily a worthy title for this Film Noir movie. This is certainly one of the few movies that you can only see once. More than that, and it doesn't have the same effect. I've seen it many more...

Pros: Great scipt, great movie Cons: None
If you haven't seen this movie yet, there is something missing in your life. You don't understand what I would give to be able to see this movie for the first time again. The ending is so amazing that I get goose bumps even now (And I've seen it 8...

Pros: great cast, fabulous story Cons: slow parts
This movie is brilliant. It begins with Verbal Kent in a police station about to be let out. But there is an investigator who wants to talk to him first. They want information about the fire which occurred on a boat killing more than 50 men in the...

Pros: suspenseful, interesting, great acting, incredible ending Cons: none
I just recently saw this movie and I have to say it was wonderful. My friends have always brought it up in conversations but I could never talk about it, it was about time that I see it. Now I know what everybody was raving about. It is incredibly...

Pros: Great Acting, Great Writing Cons: zip, zilch, nada
A great thriller that keeps you guessing until the very end, The Usual Suspects delivers action, suspense, and mystery in a stylistic and unique way.
Kevin Spacey is so good its scary; Gabriel Byrne and Benicio Del Toro add solid performances...

Pros: Script, actors Cons: none
The Usual Suspects is probably the best movie I have ever seen. It is a wonder that in an era of perpetually boring "thrillers" that there could be a film of this magnitude. Recently, I viewed the DVD version with the Director's Comments on,...

Pros: Great acting, writing, pacing Cons: None
The (in)famous surprise ending of "The Usual Suspects" has taken away some attention from the fact that this is a smart, stylish, fast-paced thriller. It is the mark of director Bryan Singer, writer Christopher McQuarrie and the ensemble cast...

Pros: all Cons: none
I own this video, because I like to see all the parts that I missed the first time. All the little things that I did not catch just go to show you how smart other people are.
This is one of the best movies of all time, and as always never...

Pros: Solid characters, multiple yet smooth chronological transitions, simply fantastic ending. Cons: A couple slower, dragging sections, slight confusion on a few points (though resolved).
From the very opening of the Usual Suspects, the audience's attention is immediately grabbed by a flame-filled fiasco on a docked ship, replete with murder, mayhem, and a slight twist of mystery.
The plot unfolds from there, and all events...

Pros: Check Review Cons: None
This movie has to be one of the greatest suspense movies around! It is on my same list that Seven is on. Full of deceit, murder, and action, this movie fits the parts perfectly. Not only does the movie follow a great storyline, but it also has a bunch...

Pros: Wonderful script, Kevin Spacey, wonderful movie! Cons: Waited too long to see it!
This is a movie that I had been ordered to watch for a long time. Everyone kept telling me how completely wonderful it was and how much I would love it. I would just agree and go on and forget about the whole thing.
Finally I watched...

Pros: Mind-bending ending, outstanding acting, directing, musical score. Cons: Somewhat less intriguing the second time.
This film is so unconventional in its method and execution that you can't get into the "movie headspace" we've come to expect from Hollywood. Neither is it what I would call an indie film because, well, it doesn't suck. The pacing is steady and...

Pros: a superb story and unforgettable characters Cons: I cant even think of one..near perfection.
It doesn't get any better then this. Great characters, many plot twist, and a superb ending make this arguably my favorite of all time. The movie grabs your attention from the beginning and never lets go. The characters are some of my personal favorites...

Pros: Complex, thrilling, suspenseful, wonderful Cons: Have to see it more than once to understand
Can a movie get anymore spectacular than this? It has it all, great acting, thrilling suspense, the most amazing whodunit plot ever. You have to see it more than more just to begin to understand it, and many times to catch all the undertones hidden...

Pros: FANTASTIC Cons: NONE
The Ususal Suspects is one of the finest cinematic treats to come out in the past 10 years! I admit that I was not expecting much when I sat down to watch the film -- I'd never heard of Kevin Spacey before! Half way through the movie I was still...
