It's rare that a movie flat out lies to me and it makes me so happy! What are your thoughts on The Usual Suspects?

[@arisucheddar3097]

I share your headache lol but there's an intense satisfaction to all the pieces that didn't QUITE click in every version of the story, suddenly snapping into place.

I like that we will never actually know what happened.

[@tempsitch5632]

Saw it 4 times in theatres including being able to take my Dad to it right before he died. Must have rented it on VHS to show friends about 18 times when it came out. As a musician and editor myself, what John Ottman did composing the music and editing the film, is technically and artistically incredible.

[@michaelschwartz8730]

Tiny clues at the beginning that are easy to miss. The first shot we see of "Keyser" at the dock is of his feet, walking normally. Then the first shot we see of Verbal is also of his feet, limping. Almost as if to subliminally say, "See, Verbal CAN'T be Keyser!"...because he is, of course

So much fun! "The Usual Suspects" was merely one more awesome movie that was out on any given weekend in the 1990s. Glad you loved it!

[@chefskiss6179]

Nice one! There is a scene in Eddie Murphy's Dr. Dolittle where he's running through a dog kennel (and of course the Dr. can hear all animals talking) so we hear so many voices yelling out to him and somewhere in that mix a dog shouts "I'm Keyzer Soze". I immediately spit my drink and was coughing/laughing so hard. I had to rewind to confirm. Well played, sound mix team ;)

[@CasualNerdReactions]

🤣 That definitely changes the scene! haha

[@jlinkous05]

Fun fact: Stephen Baldwin's delivery of "Gimme the keys" during the lineup, that was improv and the other actors' reactions were genuine!

[@pravusprime]

One of the best examples of unreliable narrator in cinematic history. You know the line-up happened. You know NY Finest Taxi Cab service was hit. You know the ship was hit and what was on it. You know there is an Edie Finneran. Everything else likely didn't happen as we saw it if it happened at all.

[@CasualNerdReactions]

That's so true. It's like the movie doesn't even exists. 😳

[@rowdycmoore]

You know there is a Keyser Sose, but you don't know if he really is as much of this supercrimelord as we're told.

[@slchance8839]

yes! i tried this many times....to figure out exactly what is verifyable fact and not. You nailed it. Maybe 4 facts in Usual Suspects. That's all you know. AND....you dont know if ANY Of these facts (the line-up, Taxi Cab hit, Ship explosion, and Edie Finneran) are related to each other at all. They may have been just another note on the corkboard.

[@seraiharper5553]

Another puzzle-box just like The Sting! Watch it again. You'll see a whole different movie. There are so many subtle hints and clues that will leap out at you now, even in the camera work - check out the way it focuses more and more on Kaiser's left hand as he walks away from the massacre in flames, the hand that Verbal has locked up in supposed palsy. His anger when Cuyon asks about Kaiser Soze - his great story just got derailed and now he has to think on the fly. (That's also why you see him rubbing his temple in closeup. He's editing as he goes, trying to make the shaky edifice stand up straight enough to get him the hell out of the police station.) And there's all the moments when, now that you know what's happening, you can see Kaiser trying not to laugh in Cuyon's face. The whole thing is complex and subtle and hilarious. One of my Top Five films, for sure.

[@rowdycmoore]

But that's the even greater thing - the likelihood that "Verbal" knew Kujan would eventually hear the name Keyser Sose and his whole "has to now think on the fly" was all planned and part of the con from the beginning.

[@BubbaCoop]

And Spacey's eyeline to the bottom of Cujon's mug

[@johnanderson5558]

So glad no one spoiled the ending for you, as your reaction to the Kobayashi reveal was priceless!

[@paulieluppino1856]

"Verbal" is a nickname, but in the street your nickname has more value than your real name.... that's why there are so many "Fat" Tonys, or "Quickfingers" Loui, or my personal favourite "Snorky" Al Capone (Because he hated the other nickname people known him for, "Scarface")

[@GrumpyOldGuyPlaysGames]

The one hint you get earlier in the movie about what is going on is when Agent Kujan first comes into the office where they are keeping Verbal is that Verbal is just sitting there, staring intently at the bulletin board. First one spot, then another, then another. That's the only hint at all.

[@bagmani]

Also, Agent Kujan sits on the table above Verbal, and Verbal looks up at the bottom of the cup when Kujan drinks.

[@shaneboegeman8638]

There was also the clue when Keaton asks what language they are speaking and Verbal says immediately "hungarian" (something Soze would know due to the flashback Soze scene)

[@MrDarkwing78]

The “Aha” moment for me was when he retrieved the lighter from lockup; he’d struggled with a lighter earlier, so it seemed odd he didn’t have matches or something he could use.

[@dovegrey1]

"Preeeteee!" You crazy pyro you! This movie never gets old for me.....great story telling and acting....watch it again and you'll find more details each time.

[@dabe1971]

I remember seeing this in theatres. Normally you get a general hubbub as people leave but for this there was very little. People were just coming out with a look of 😮. I love that there are still people that haven't seen this and don't know the twist. Even better that we can watch them react.

[@darthtrip7188]

There were hints Verbal was Keyser Soze earlier in the film before the big reveal..one..he actually says "I killed Keaton" when Agent Kujon was interrogating him and pushed him to the floor. And when the police officer gives Verbal his belongings back..a cigarette lighter (gold), a watch (gold), and a pack of cigarettes..all things that Keyser Soze showed he had at the beginning of the film when he killed Keaton.

[@BigGator5]

"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he did not exist." Very few see it coming and, out of those reactors, a couple are shocked they were right. Fun Fact: In an interview, Kevin Spacey revealed that Bryan Singer managed to convince every one of the major actors that they were Keyser Soze. When first screened for the company of actors, Gabriel Byrne was so stunned when he found that he wasn't Keyser Soze that he stormed off into the parking lot and argued with Singer for a half hour.

[@CasualNerdReactions]

Wow! I mean, he filled the scenes, of course he thought he was Soze. What a great trick. I could imagine being shocked if I had suggested verbal was Soze. It would have been a total joke suggestion.

[@BKPrice]

The only thing I think you might have been able to pick up on was one scene where the investigator goes to drink his coffee and you see Kevin Spacey's eyes focus intently on the bottom of the mug, but it's so subtle I don't know if even that would work if you didn't know beforehand.

[@CasualNerdReactions]

It’s definitely a small detail that would be really kind of weird to notice and then leap to he’s making it all up. I think anyway. Really cool though!

[@BKPrice]

@@CasualNerdReactions Indeed. It's easy to pick these scenes out in hindsight, but I have seen a few reactors guess it's Verbal early on for various reasons. I think there may also be a few subtle inconsistencies in his story as well that can clue people in, but again, they are super easy to miss.

[@jamesfalato4305]

A Once In A Generation Film... Even the nickname of "Verbal" was part of the Fun, because Verbal was the one who Verbalized the Action...

[@PatrickPrejusa]

I wish reactors would watch more David Mamet movies,l like SPANISH PRISONER OR HOUSE OF GAMES.

[@joeyk5887]

Even if this all-star duo doesn't react to em-so many movie to choose from it's completely understandable-i would highly recommend both 'Usual Suspects' & 'True Romance' to others who found this movie enjoyable. I'm sure many have already seen at least 1 as it is already-if not both. But I'm sure many others haven't; And i can almost guarantee that folks will not be disappointed in the slightest. Both have big time casts & were so supremely written & acted. 'Usual Suspects' in particular is so similar it's not even funny, while also being completely dif & its own movie in itself. But great movie & great reaction as always

[@CassandrashadowcassMorrison]

You should see MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL in which Kevin Spacey plays a character so much more like his true self.

[@brucer2152]

told you. You should watch "The Spanish Prisoner". Another great caper movie, more straight up, world war two is "Kelley's Heroes".

[@simonevirden2254]

Yay! I love watching reactions of this movie. My favorite part about rewatching it is seeing how much Verbal smirks whenever Dave calls him stupid or something else derogatory. Tiny little Spacey-smirks that feels like it gives all away. Also, 13:20…hysterical.

[@John57945]

Not sure how many people have recommended this film but you should check out "L.A. Confidential" with Russell Crowe and Kevin Spacey. This is a phenomenal film and you already watched and reviewed one of my top 5 fav movies of all time when you reviewed "The Sting". I don't understand how "The Sting" is not reviewed by more channels! Keep up the great reviews & "L.A. Confidential" is worth a personal watch but even a better reaction because it is a great movie!!!

[@garytyme9384]

If you want to watch a good film then try "Stark Raving Mad" with Sean William Scott. I think you'll really enjoy it.

Love the moment of reveal - it's like O M G!!

[@burkeiowa]

The key line that wasn't included in this reaction came at the end of the line-up scene. "Besides, it was fun. I got to make like I was notorious." Many people end the movie thinking that he was notorious, but he admitted early on that he was making that up. Yes, he picked up details from the board, which an interrogation room would lack. But he also made his character appear more amazing than he really was.

[@aligaines8476]

Have you seen Reservoir Dogs by any chance?

[@CasualNerdReactions]

[@davidagiel8130]

So many people think the entire story is made up, but it's not all made up, clearly some things were changed, like Redfoot, but other things like his lawyer and the back story of Soze were likely still real.

Seems like keeping his identity secret is important. he wanted the cops to pin his identity on Keaton.

Prejudice and arrogance have no place in law enforcement. Agent Kujan got outsmarted by Kaiser because he was so blinded by his prejudice against Keaton who was a former law enforcer turned criminal. Even the conclusion that Keaton was behind the whole massacre is a very long stretch of a reach. Since Verbal survived the massacre and if the police were smarter, he should have been considered the USUAL SUSPECT. But Kujan is arrogant AF. That was terrible detective work and not necessarily that Verbal/Kaiser was a genius.

One of my top 5 Neo Noirs (post 60 film noirs) This movie and *L.A. Confidential* both mid 90s, *The Long Goodbye* '73, *Chinatown* (my Fav) 1975 with Jack Nicholson and the Cohen Brothers first ever film, *Blood Simple* '84 is IMHO, their best film besides No Country for Old Men (some say its also Neo Noir). Then there is a little know gem by Brian DePalma staring John Travolta from the early 80s called *Blow Out* I don't know why its so under appreciated. These are all powerful movies, not as good as the classic Noirs but damned close. Top 5 Classic Noirs in no particular order, Double Indemnity, The Killing (Stanly Kubrick's first movie I think), Asphalt Jungle, The Maltese Falcon and The Big Sleep (both Bogey movies). Good job !! Bravo, this was priceless me knowing you were going to be amazed by the ending twist. It had a Vertigo kind if sudden twist that shocks the mind.

There's SO much to catch the second, and likely even third time through.

[@Erik78Johansson]

I think you're ready for the movie Memento now :)

I believe all of the actors were under the impression that they were Keyser Soze and didn't know the truth until the movie came out.

[@CasualNerdReactions]

I heard that! Kind of cruel, but also maybe a great way to keep the truth hidde.

Can you please do a movie reaction to "RED" (Retired-Extremely-Dangerous) starring Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman...along with some other big names you're sure to recognize? It's a comedy/drama about former CIA agents who are now out of the business...until someone decides they know too much. Great movie, I think you'd like it! Thanks in advance!

[@CasualNerdReactions]

Ooh that’d be a fun one I think. I remember the trailers for it! Thanks for the suggestion.

[@raymacdonaldcreations505]

Happy to help build your video collection... You do a great job with your honest, heart felt reactions. You have quickly become one of my favorite reactors since I discovered your video, " The Day the Earth Stood Still"... Hope you do more Sci-Fi classics like that. Have you ever seen the original movie "The Fly" from the 60's or the Movie "Them" from the late 50's? I think you would like them as well. Keep up the great job!

I'm sending the first part of this video to Chris' local police department. I'm sure it will help them with their little arson problem.

[@CasualNerdReactions]

Finally. Thank you. 😅

I work in a hospital lab. Yes if a person is really dehydrated. Their pee is thick like snot.

[@CasualNerdReactions]

I’m learning many things today… 😅

Great movie. Too clever by half.
