"The Usual Suspects" is an overrated movie that is boosted by a twist that isn't even that great

Great movie but you're entitled to your opinion.

Memento was a good movie with a good gimmick. The Prestige is a masterpiece

I got Memento over prestige all day erday.

Usual Suspect is a classic, great cast from top to bottom and great acting from all, the twist takes it to classic level.

i've only watched the movie from start to finish once and it was a long time ago.

i am with you OP, as a viewer i felt cheated. if the whole thing was all just a bunch of random lies then what the fukk was the point of sitting through everything.

maybe i'd have to watch it again. i was young, maybe there's more to it.

Exactly how I feel. Movie was borderline trash

If it's "unanimously considered a classic" then why are so many people agreeing with me? Learn what words mean before you use them, dumbass.

Believe it or not, the internet is a place where special snowflakes such as yourself tend to congregate because you'd be clowned for saying certain things offline. I know you're not aware of this though because if you were, this thread wouldn't have been made.

Now go put that on your tumblr nikka

Literally one of the most overrated movies of all time, an average feature that is propped because of a good cast (Spacey, Baldwin, etc.) and a trick twist.

First of all, I think trick twists (ones that fool the audience dishonestly, a.k.a ones that do not deceive the audience by presenting all the evidence in a sly way but rather trick the audience with a dishonest narrator) are basically lazy. Verbal Kint is just a dishonest narrator more than anything

Second of all, poorly written with poorly developed characterization. Basically plays like a primitive 1930s crime caper

Such an overrated movie that is somehow talked about with the greats because of a twist that isnt even that good. One of the most overrated films I've ever seen

Well Verbal Kint was a con man... that should've given you some hint that he is a liar hmm

Memento is one of the most overrated movies of all time IMO. People that put it over The Prestige when talking Nolan films disgust me

:nolan:

to be honest i just like this movie for the scene where Benecio Del Toro says "put the money in the bag cock sucker what the fuuuuuuuck!"

i would not only take memento over prestige, i'll raise you and say prestige is one of the dumbest fukkin movies ever made.

One of Bryan Singer's best imo
