12. I did not "get" that movie
Not being a smart ass...I seriously didn't get it and never understood what the point was.

20. My favourite movie
Basically the movie is a fabrication spun by Verbal Kint/Keyser Soze. The cruel trick is that the cool, funny, and action-packed story that Kint tells Kujan never happened. The whole movie is a lie. And we the audience believe that lie until Kujan gazes at his bulletin board and sees all the references in it that Kint used in his story, such as the name Kobayashi (which Kint called Soze's lawyer, but is actually just the company that made a coffee mug). The ending still chills me, it's so well done. The silent slo-mo shot of the coffee mug is so full of dread. It scares you because you realize what an evil genius the supposedly stupid Kint really is.

7. I just watched it on A&E
and even though I've seen it before, it still keeps me guessing. Kevin Spacey is so damn good.

9. It's a great movie.
A good one to watch more than once. I wanted to watch it again right after I watched it the first time.

10. It's like Memento, in that you can only TRULY enjoy it once.
Once, you *know* whodunnit, it's not nearly as much fun.

13. But there both still great movies
I actually watched usual suspects the other day on DVD. It hasn't aged well in my opinion but it's still classic.

15. He lets the last Hungarian go
and he goes running. He waits until his wife and kids are in the ground and he goes after the rest of the mob. He kills their kids, he kills their wives, he kills their parents and their parents' friends. He burns down the houses they live in and the stores they work in, he kills people that owe them money. And like that he was gone. Underground. No one has ever seen him again. He becomes a myth, a spook story that criminals tell their kids at night. If you rat on your pop, Keyser Soze will get you. And nobody really ever believes.

18. I loved that movie!
Saw it the day it came out in limited release. Saw it several more times as well. That movie got me back to going to the movies again, because it reminded me of just how good a movie can be.

21. Will Pitt!
If we're all Will Pitt, then Keyser Soze is included in that set. Therefore...
