I feel like a broken record at this point. Let's get one thing straight: I really enjoy The Usual Suspects. And the SE DVD has some great special features on it. So what does this Blu-Ray get? Bupkus. Thanks, guys. You won't be getting any of my money until you start respecting the consumer and release a proper Blu-Ray with AT LEAST all the standard DVD extras ported over.
The usual 90's movie.

I feel like they swore so much more in the mid-90's. Maybe I'm just getting old but every other line of this movie was f*ck, it seemed. So that kind of turned me off of the movie. However, on the hole this movie was good, good action, good plot and good mystery. Kevin Spacey did a great job with his role, it was a lot like his role in Seven. Kind of the relaxed sociopath with sarcastic humor.
On Blue ray-HD the movie looked great, I watched it on a PS3 while sick one afternoon and it took my mind off of the stomach flu. And if thats not a great movie I don't know what is.

I, like so many, obviously love this movie, if you are the 23 idiots that rated this a one then you obviously did that because you have a mainstream complex...meaning you need to be different, why, just because to be different. With that said the movie is amazing, stay patient with it and it will deliver. BOTTOM LINE!
As for the Blue Ray, not impressed, is there a slight improvement, maybe. Buy this on regular DVD and own a classic you will watch multiple times!!!!

This movie is hilarious! A great cast with all the turns and twists you could ask for. Kevin Spacey is outstanding! If you are a fan of 'Resevoir Dogs' and 'Momento', you will love 'The Usual Suspects'.

If you don't know about this movie or haven't seen this movie then don't ask anyone about it - JUST BUY IT! One of the best movies I have ever seen. The ending is worth the price of the movie.
Great great movie, but skip the Blue Ray

THIS MOVIE WHICH I JUST HAPPEN TO HEAR ABOUT ON A SHOW. WOW, IT HAD SUCH POWER AND LITTLE VIOLENCE. IT HAD SO MUCH COMPASSION AND LOVE WITHOUT THE SEXUAL CONTENT. IT WAS A MOVIE FOR AND ABOUT FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE. A WOMENS DISTASTE FOR ANOTHER MAN, HER HUSBANDS BESTFRIEND AND HOW THAT FRIENDSHIP TURNS IT'S SELF AROUND SLOWLY. EACH PERSON CARRIED A CHARACTOR THAT YOU LIKED. TAKE A NIGHT AND ENJOY THIS EMOTIONAL BUT MEANINGFUL MOVIE.

This movie is unexpected, offering complex characters struggling with basic human emotions. The characters long for acceptance while desperately seeking their autonomy. The movie takes you places you don't expect, provokes feelings you don't expect, and leads you a place of resolution. This is a great film to watch and have a discussion follow. It is the kind of movie that you can watch several times and glean new perspectives and insights. You may find yourself reflecting on your own journey....It isn't until the end when you learn the meaning of the title.
Very good...

That's who I'm giving the two stars to--the young actor and actress playing the children of Halle Berry and David Duchovny.
The rest of the film is deficient in many ways:
1. Berry plays a mean, crazy beeyotch of a widow who wasn't all that nice to her ex-husband and is of two minds when it comes to dealing with his best friend, the heroin addict played by Benicio Del Toro. Berry is always "on"; everything is life and death; she does not know how to play a character with subtlety or nuance. Also, she calls her husband abusive for no good reason, then tells his friend she's angry with him for helping their son get his head under water in the pool--which is what her husband had tried to do, and for that she called him abusive! It makes no sense.
2. Multiple close-ups of actors' eyes are neither necessary nor impressive.
3. Duchovny is wasted in his tiny role as the murdered husband.
4. Too many characters repeat the same lines several times. Dumb script/dialogue.
5. Nothing much comes of the potential romance or other connection between del Toro and Berry.
Rent something else.
