The Usual Suspects (1995)
MEDIUM LEVEL COARSE LANGUAGE, MEDIUM LEVEL VIOLENCE
| Director: | Bryan Singer |
| Actors: | Stephen Baldwin, Gabriel Byrne, Kevin Pollak, Kevin Spacey, Pete Postlethwaite, Giancarlo Esposito, Chazz Palminteri, Benicio Del Toro, Suzy Amis |
Usually, when there is a crime, there is a motive. Usually, when there is a line-up, there is only one real suspect. But this was not the usual crime ... this is not the usual motive ... and these are not the usual suspects.
Driven by outstanding performances from GABRIEL BYRNE (from The Assassin), STEPHEN BALDWIN (from Threesome), CHAZZ PALMINTERI (from A Bronx Tale) and directed by Bryan Singer (X-Men) this electrifying thriller is the story of five crooks who team up to pull off the perfect heist. THE USUAL SUSPECTS has blown Australian and US cinema audiences away...and is now set to explode on DVD!

Great acting and a very novel story line make this movie a modern day classic. It draws you in, on its ending you immediately want to watch it a second time.

Very violent movie with a convoluted plot, we watched it twice but are still not sure of the sequence of events or which events were supposed to be real.

Super movie,well written,well acted and well directed.
Well worth a watch,even though it was made back in the mid nineties.
Compared to most Hollywood rubbish these days,it was a refreshing change.
Osti
says
This movie started too slow and too mystifying. The characters are all portrayed in crimspeak, complete with all the foul-mouthed F-words they could squeeze in. I am told it turns out to be a great film. I didn't wait to see.

Kevin Spacey at his best. Tag line: "The greatest trick the devil evil pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist." Spacey pulls off the greatest con, convincing four other thugs to pull off a drug heist without ever giving away who he really was. The biggest trick of all, convincing the police and FBI that the person they were looking for, really didn't exist. Great cast, great plot, great movie

One of the cleverest plot lines and twists I have ever seen. Even though it is an all star cast, the actors egos don't overshadow the characters. Brilliant!

Most definitely in my top 5 movies of all time. I walked past this at my movie store 1,000 times. Now I've seen it I can't recommend it highly enough.

the plot is very complex - if you duck out to make a cup of coffee you'll miss something important. quite Ok but wouldn't rave about it.

says
Great movie, very unexpected ending.

Kevin Spacey and the rest of this top line cast create this clever, suspenseful and riviting movie

Another great cast of actors in a familiar good/bad storyline. Full of action, violence and it's fair share of bad language. Gabriel Byrnes gives another great performance. Not a fan of Kevin Spacey but here he takes the cake for great acting.
Paul G.
says
Entertaining action movie with a expected twist at the end. Worth a look once.

Sorry to say, I found it boring & just couldn't get into it. I only lasted 15 minutes.

film with never ending twists, in the end you just can follow them.
Meredith E.
says
I guess I was expecting more because so many people had said how great this movie was. Definitely worth watching, and a nice twist at the end, which I kind of picked anyway. Perhaps I'd have enjoyed it more if I hadn't had so many people telling me just how fantastic it was - it let me down.

was a good sit back take it all in type of film with a bit of action and plenty of intrigue as you try to solve what the hell is going on, good cast kept the story rolling as we went from one scenario to the next. My type of film with a good twist in the end which i did'nt see coming, although i did have my doubts.

This crime mystery thriller has got it all: convoluted story line with unexpected twists and turns, great acting and witty, and often comic, dialogue, violence (if you like that to add to the excitement) and a most provocative ending.
Jan K.
says
Good movie, with a twist. Kevin Spacey is a very talented actor. I enjoy all his movies.

I found it hard to understand the dialogue and the plot was very convoluted. Pity really as the star cast promised more.

Excellent. Don't plan on using your brain for a couple of hours afterwards. You'll be too tired.
