A story skillfully told

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 1998)

The duo of Singer and McQuarie created one of the most fascinating stories of the decade. The story exists for itself and the only intention is to be told. And that makes it unique.
The twists and turns in the movie are executed well, the timeline is excellent, Singer's direction is strong and he never loses the grip.
Ah, the actors. Spacey was always my favorite, his performance was duefully rewarded, Palminteri, Byrne, S. Baldwin, Pollack, Del Toro... everybody has his touch and they do their part flawless.
All in all, Usual Suspects is a very good story well told. A real teamwork of talents.
