Hyped as a "Clever" crime thriller but still way too heavy on brutal violence and killing. As for the "clever" twist at the end, Hollywood has a habit of giving a false initial impression in such movies that everything truthfully and…

The wonderfully dense crime thriller is accompanied by commentary by director Bryan Singer and screenwriter Christopher McQuarrie on the analog audio track. Singer and McQuarrie provide a standard sort of talk about the movie, discussing…

I found the acting excellent, and loved the story line. Did any of it actually happen? Who is pulling the strings? I rewatch this film annually; always entertaining. Aside from Spacek (whose actual life has been exposed as repugnant --…

I don't like that movie at all - maybe because mentality of those guys is so strange to me, for me all of them are actually psychopaths and normal people
but anyway I really agree that ending is excellent and this is big value of that…

I saw the ending of this movie on TV but never saw the whole thing until now and I decided to because of the eye candy. I had no interest in watching another heist movie. So, it was fun watching a very young del Toro and Byrne, two of my…

I was working a jigsaw puzzle while watching this movie, so not giving it my full attention. I wasn’t actually even sure what I was watching until I got to the ending. With that revelation, I have immediately watched it again (but still…

The film follows five criminals who meet during a police line-up and end up working together to commit a heist. The movie has a great plot which makes you think as well as making you question everything that happens the entire time. The…

The entire film is really built around the twist ending, which causes you to re-evaluate everything in the space of a few minutes. I don't think this bears subsequent viewings quite as well as that other famous twist-ending film The Sixth…

Brilliant film – great to see it on DVD. I saw the film when it first came out (1995) but it nice being able to re-watch certain parts. In the bonus materials, the director and crew actual point out clues to puzzle. Great acting –…

Wow! One of the most extraordinary final scene plot twists I've ever encountered. Made we want to go back and watch the film again to try to unravel its complex plot. Truly brilliant- I never saw that coming!

Great story. I called Keyser Soze too. It's too bad the jerks in the comments section felt they had to spoil the ending. If you read this don't look below.

Beautifully crafted, with an ending that left me feeling like I'd been clonked on the head. Me, actually yelling at the screen. 20 years later, it's still a mind-blowing classic.

Enjoy The mini stories and pay attention to the beginning sequence. Also, make notes of how each character presents himself. I called "Keyser Soze" from the beginning. :3
And now *poof* he's gone.
