DVD Reviews of The Usual Suspects (Special Editon)

DVD Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is one of the great movies of the 90's. It kicked off Kevin Spacey's career. Benicio Del Toro is in it. Just an all star cast of guys who weren't that popular then. The story is awesome and after all these years the plot twist is still great to watch.

DVD Review: I did not receive the correct dvd
Summary: 1 Stars

I received the incorrect item, however it was inside the correct DVD case.
In the DVD case was another DVD. I looked for the title. It was not on the Movie Header. Since the DVD header had the title missing from the introduction, is it an incomplete copy? I did indeed order The Usual Suspects. I had to order from another vendor,
the DVD "The Usual Suspects" and got it. And it is great.
Thank you.

DVD Review: the ultimate mystery movie
Summary: 5 Stars

SPOILER: Kevin Spacey is one of the best actors of my generation, IMHO, and his performance in this movie is no less than overwhelming. He masterfully pulls off a gimp role, only to be masking an evil mastermind. And the stories he yarns while under interrogation are very creative diversions from the ego maniac cop. The final scene where he walks away is the best part of the film.

DVD Review: My BOO BOO!!
Summary: 2 Stars

I thought I bought the DVD. Ended up with the authors rendition of this movie. I need to re-order with out all the commentary.

Thx.
Debbie

DVD Review: The devil himself could not do this better
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a real CON movie, you do not except the ending, and it does not matter how many times you see it, you wont believe it

Description of The Usual Suspects (Special Editon)

Winner of two 1995 Academy Awards?(r), including Best Original Screenplay, this masterful, atmospheric film noir enraptured audiences with its complex and riveting storyline, gritty, tour-de-force performances (including an Oscar?(r)-winning* turn by Kevin Spacey) and a climax that is truly deserving of the word stunning. Also starring Stephen Baldwin, Gabriel Byrne, Chazz Palminteri, Kevin Pollak and Pete Postlethwaite, this 'thoroughly engrossing film (HBO) is so gripping and diabolically clever (The Wall Street Journal) that it becomes a maze you'll be happy to get lost in (Los Angeles Times)! Held in an L.A. interrogation room, Verbal Kint attempts to convince the feds that the mythic crime lord not only exists, but was also responsible for drawinghim and his four partners into a multi-million dollar heist that ended with an explosion in San Pedro Harborleaving few survivors. But as Kint lures his interrogators into the incredible story of this crime lord's almost supernatural prowess, so too will you be mesmerized by a lore that is completely captivating from beginning to end!
Ever since this convoluted thriller dazzled audiences and critics in 1995 and won an Oscar for Christopher McQuarrie's twisting screenplay, The Usual Suspects has continued to divide movie lovers into opposite camps. While a lot of people take great pleasure from the movie's now-famous central mystery (namely, "Who is Keyser S?ze?"), others aren't so easily impressed by a movie that's too enamored of its own cleverness to make much sense. After all, what are we to make of a final scene that renders the entire movie obsolete? Half the fun of The Usual Suspects is the debate it provokes and the sheer pleasure of watching its dynamic cast in action, led (or should we say, misled) by Oscar winner Kevin Spacey as the club-footed con man who recounts the saga of enigmatic Hungarian mobster Keyser S?ze. Spacey's in a band of thieves that includes Gabriel Byrne, Stephen Baldwin, Kevin Pollak, and Benicio Del Toro, all gathered in a plot to steal a large shipment of cocaine. The story is told in flashback as a twisted plot being described by Spacey's character to an investigating detective (Chazz Palmintieri), and The Usual Suspects is enjoyable for the way it keeps the viewer guessing right up to its surprise ending. Whether that ending will enhance or extinguish the pleasure is up to each viewer to decide. Even if it ultimately makes little or no sense at all, this is a funny and fiendish thriller, guaranteed to entertain even its vocal detractors. --Jeff Shannon
