USUAL SUSPECTS: I thought it was great when I first saw it but the second time around which was more than a decade later I found it a bit lame of course by then I knew the twist so maybe it's that.

SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION: once of my top 10 probably which is odd becasue I loathe irl Tim Robbins and I'm not a big Morgan Freeman fan however I'm a mark for prison movies an Clancy Brown

I'll save you the trouble with The Usual Suspects.

The first time I saw "The Usual Suspects" was in January, at the Sundance Film Festival, and when I began to lose track of the plot, I thought it was maybe because I'd seen too many movies that day. Some of the other members of the audience liked it, and so when I went to see it again in July, I came armed with a notepad and a determination not to let crucial plot points slip by me. Once again, my comprehension began to slip, and finally I wrote down: "To the degree that I do understand, I don't care." It was, however, somewhat reassuring at the end of the movie to discover that I had, after all, understood everything I was intended to understand. It was just that there was less to understand than the movie at first suggests.

The story builds up to a blinding revelation, which shifts the nature of all that has gone before, and the surprise filled me not with delight but with the feeling that the writer, Christopher McQuarrie, and the director, Bryan Singer, would have been better off unraveling their carefully knit sleeve of fiction and just telling us a story about their characters - those that are real, in any event. I prefer to be amazed by motivation, not manipulation.

Shawshank is just so damn cheesy. It's still worth seeing but it making any top lists baffles me personally.
