Better Ending? (Se7en vs. Usual Suspects)

[mvp_status]

Usual Suspects was probably a bigger moment for me

Se7en, however, had me wee-bay'ing for about 5 minutes after the desert scene

"WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!"

Defintiely Usual Suspects for me. That shyt had me for like 5 minutes
Se7en's ending is good but at Pitt's acting near the end.

Pitt's acting is what made that end so powerful imo, matter face all three actors (Pitt, Freeman, Spacey) brought their A game those last couple of scenes

What's in the box

But that doesn't take away from the greatness that is usual suspects

Se7en only because that shyt gets me everytime. Usual Suspects is a movie i only watch once maybe twice for the ending. Not putting down the greatness of the movie as a whole though.

I still chuckle when the detective calls him a cripple but Usual Suspects gets my vote. Seven was good as well.

 

[yseJ]

usual suspects was way more to me

seven was very powerful altho I think in that scene piff kinda overdid it.

US for me I guess

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Usual Suspects and it's not even close.

 

[storyteller]

On first viewing, Usual Suspects blew my damn mind and left me speechless...but the impact of the last scene in Seven hits every damned time. Both movies are piff!

 

[Swiggy]

Se7en is a legit favorite, but it's The Usual Suspects.

Se7en was one shock after another, and that wasn't as BIG a swerve, as it was like "Damn, what else can happen in this Gotham-without-Batman city"

The Usual Suspects gave you not hint at all that Verbal was ready to reveal himself as the gawd of GAWDS. So while ur just expecting to get a straight story, you get the OH shyt of a lifetime with that reveal.

Great thread

Usual Suspects is the better, or at least more shocking// ending...

...but Se7en is the MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better film. It's in a different league.

For me, Usual Suspects was great the first two times. First because of the mystery/the reveal, and second because you watch it knowing that reveal and it's just a different film almost. After that....I don't think it's a great film. Great performances for sure...but I never really dug it much after I got over the twist.

Se7en is just brilliant film-making.
