Interesting! redfish says he has watched it five times. Give me a hint on subject matter. Why should I watch it, other than to see if I agree with you? OK, I read some reviews on Amazon.com. I'm not big on movies about the drug trade, and I'm not crazy about Kevin Spacey, Oscar status not withstanding. Should I still go see it? Here's one excerpt from a review: "The Usual Suspects," ultimately, is more frustrating than most films because of how good it could have been. A little more attention to detail and a little less disingenuousness would have resulted in a far, far more satisfying finished product. Another reviewer for Amazon asks if this is the perfect film, and the answer is, "Far from it, but many of the elements are there." If you want to see the nearest thing to cinematic perfection, go back and watch "Lawrence of Arabia" or "Local Hero." Message #391 from chuck at 3/23/2005 9:13:50 PM "the usual suspects" is one of the best movies ever made, it has achieved cult status...... think for yourself and watch the movie..decide for yourself if it is worthy or not... can you do that...? regards
