My All Time Favorite Film

Rating: 9/10 (24 June 2015)

I've seen many mixed reviews on 'The Usual Suspects'. Many reviews criticise the film because it is too 'Predictable'. I personally believe this film is one of the least predictable and well scripted films of all time.
Upon the first viewing I was left stunned. The plot hit me like a train and left me speechless. I wondered around my house trying to piece together my broken mind. I don't want to ruin the plot for anyone but if you haven't watched this film already I think you are missing out on something beautiful. This film has the ability to confuse you and leave you in utter shock at the end. 'Does the Usual suspects have the best film ending of all time?' ; I think it does. Without a doubt this film has left me in a state that no other film has.
Upon the second viewing I was hitting my past self. 'How did I miss that' and 'Its obvious now' kept coming into my mind. The attention to detail in this film is gob-smacking and its possible to watch it multiple times and always realise something new. The camera angles are all thought out and seem to have meaning. This film defiantly deserves its place in the top 250 films of all time.
The acting is also some of the best I've seen ; the cast are perfectly chosen for there roles and it all adds to the immersion in the plot that the audience feels. The script is expertly written and each character comes at a contrast to each other character. Kevin Spacey and Gabriel Byrne are both amazing actors, and as we all know this is the film that made Kevin Spacey as an actor.
All in all if you haven't watched this film watch it, its absolutely amazing. However, if you have watched it , watch it again because I guarantee the second sitting is as good as the first.
