The best thrillers are the ones your brain wrestles with long after the final credits roll. And nearly 15 years after the film's theatrical release, the twists and surprises of The Usual Suspects will still blow your mind. This gritty tale begins with a botched heist, a ship in flames and nearly everyone on the scene dead. One survivor is Roger "Verbal" Kint (Kevin Spacey), a crippled small-time crook who offers a rambling account of the events leading up to the crime. Through flashbacks we're introduced to Verbal's associates played by Gabriel Byrne, Stephen Baldwin, Kevin Pollak and Benicio Del Toro. After meeting on a seemingly random police lineup, the fab five are enticed into action by an elusive criminal mastermind named Keyser Soze. But who is this mystery villain? Director Bryan Singer cleverly keeps you from figuring this out until the very last moments of the film. Then, you'll probably want to watch the entire movie again just to appreciate the clues that were right before your eyes.
