There have been very few movies made since 1995 that can be considered great and The Usual Suspects is one of them. Some others are American Beauty and Punch Drunk Love. The Usual Suspects is just a perfect film in almost every respect. It has an ending that is nearly impossible to guess before hand, that is something of a rarity Fight Club and the Sixth Sense are the only other movies with surprise endings that have blown by me before this. The screenplay is perfectly written, there is nothing to give away the ending untill you see it for a second time than you catch all kinds of things. The dialogue and characters are also just perfect. The acting is truly phenomenal you are not likely to find anything better than this. The direction is great. The visual effects are amazing. A must watch classic film.
