The Usual Suspects

FIVE CRIMINALS. ONE LINE UP. NO COINCIDENCE.

Held in an L.A. interrogation room, Verbal Kint attempts to convince the feds that a mythic crime lord, Keyser Soze, not only exists, but was also responsible for drawing him and his four partners into a multi-million dollar heist that ended with an explosion in San Pedro harbor – leaving few survivors. Verbal lures his interrogators with an incredible story of the crime lord's almost supernatural prowess.

    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.

    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.
