Summary: One of the Best Movies Ever
Comment: This is one of the best movies ever made. The cast is perfect, the story holds your attention throughout.

In blu-Ray the picture and sound is perfect.

Summary: Shameful Blu-Ray release - no extras whatsoever
Comment: 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.

Summary: The usual 90's movie.
Comment: 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.

Summary: Great great movie, but skip the Blue Ray
Comment: 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!!!!

Editorial Reviews:

Ever since this convoluted thriller dazzled audiences and critics in 1995 and won an Oscar for Christopher McQuarrie's twisting screenplay, The Usual Suspects has continued to divide movie lovers into opposite camps. While a lot of people take great pleasure from the movie's now-famous central mystery (namely, "Who is Keyser Sze?"), others aren't so easily impressed by a movie that's too enamored of its own cleverness to make much sense. After all, what are we to make of a final scene that renders the entire movie obsolete? Half the fun of The Usual Suspects is the debate it provokes and the sheer pleasure of watching its dynamic cast in action, led (or should we say, misled) by Oscar winner Kevin Spacey as the club-footed con man who recounts the saga of enigmatic Hungarian mobster Keyser Sze. Spacey's in a band of thieves that includes Gabriel Byrne, Stephen Baldwin, Kevin Pollak, and Benicio Del Toro, all gathered in a plot to steal a large shipment of cocaine. The story is told in flashback as a twisted plot being described by Spacey's character to an investigating detective (Chazz Palmintieri), and The Usual Suspects is enjoyable for the way it keeps the viewer guessing right up to its surprise ending. Whether that ending will enhance or extinguish the pleasure is up to each viewer to decide. Even if it ultimately makes little or no sense at all, this is a funny and fiendish thriller, guaranteed to entertain even its vocal detractors. --Jeff Shannon
