It’s funny. So many people refer to that film as “full of surprising twists,” etc. Am I the only person in the world who found it terribly predictable? I called every scene before it happened, and the minute that the name “Soze” was mentioned, I thought “It’s Spacey… there’s no other way.”
In truth, the only thing I enjoyed about the movie was the acting. Maybe I’d been told by too many people stuff like “Dude! You gotta see The Usual Suspects! It’s a mindbender that’ll keep you on the edge of your seat!” Because of this, it was one of the biggest disappointments I’d ever had (speaking only of movies, of course). It was only about a year later that I had to admit that the film wasn’t that bad. At least it had a solid cast.
