Following a truck hijack in New York, five conmen are arrested and brought together for questioning. As none of them is guilty, they plan a revenge operation against the police. The operation goes well, but then the influence of a legendary mastermind criminal called Keyser Söze is felt. It becomes clear that each one of them has wronged Söze at some point and must pay back now. The payback job leaves 27 men dead in a boat explosion, but the real question arises now: Who actually is Keyser Söze? (imdb)

I've cooled on the Usual Suspects in recent years, but I still think that it's a well-written and tightly directed film. It's gimmicky, but it does that one gimmick extremely well. I do think that when you peel back the fantastic performances and sharp dialogue, there isn't a lot there of thematic substance, but perhaps that's the point.

I watched The Usual Suspects 25 years too late already knowing Who Keyser Söze is. The film is good, just overhyped. The final reveal is definitely the highlight of the film, executed perfectly to put what came before into perspective. Unfortunately it underscores several unanswered questions and undermines the central conceit; was there an overarching plan & were the cops that poor at their jobs? Essentially the film isn't as plausible as it needed to be. Spacey's performance is great though.
