The Usual Suspects

I remember when this came out. A review said, "If you can predict the ending, a top job is waiting for you at the FBI." That's funny because the only interesting thing about this film is the ending. The rest is a fluff genre movie that tries to take itself too seriously. The story pretends to be meaningful when it is just tired, but is paced slow enough and has a few dramatic scenes to give the illusion it is something more. The ending reveals an intrigue into deception, but reveals nothing more about the characters or situation. The rest of story just comes off as an exercise in criminal acts than anything else.
