Great Thriller

The Usual Suspects has style! Often movies that have a really stylized look and sound get dated or seem over done, but that is not the case with The Usual Suspects. The style the movie is shot in really enhances the story and the story telling by Bryan Singer. The acting in this movie is really phenomenal and is what will make you come back to the movie after you know what is going on with the story.

The Usual Suspects

The Usual Suspects is one of the best thriller movies of all time (top three), however you wouldn't know it until the end. It takes the form of a crime-drama throught the whole movie until the last 20 minutes. The ending makes this an amazing thriller and just an amazing movie. Kevin Spacey's strong preformance just adds to the excitement and thrill this movie brings us.
