I don’t watch as many movies as I used to.
For one thing, movies are not as fun and entertaining as they used to be. It
may also be since I’m getting older my attention span is getting shorter. But I
will always watch movies I grew up with like Indian Jones (all except the last
one). Most movies from the 80s and 90s.
It’s hard to pick just one. There are so
many but one of the movies that stand out for me is The Usual Suspects. If you’ve never seen it and like a crime/thriller
genre, I highly recommend it. It has everything: intrigue, suspense, danger, a
bit comic relief and a huge twist at the end.
It’s about five career criminals who are coerced
by a mysterious crime lord, no one has ever seen but have heard, into blowing up
a ship holding a millions of dollars’ worth of cocaine and the drug dealer onboard.
For payment, they can keep all the money they find on the ship. Spoiler alert.
There was no cocaine or money on the ship. They were used as diversion so the
mysterious crime lord could kill the only witness that could identify him.
I’ve done a horrible job of describing the
movie. But is so worth it. If you do watch, I’d be interested to know what you
think of it. If you have seen it, I’d be interested to know what you think of
it.
U is for Usual Suspects
I generally don't watch crime/thriller dramas, but I may pick it up if my library has it for a rainy afternoon sometime.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of this movie. I bet my hubby would like watching it. I haven't seen many movies recently. We used to rent a lot of movies but then we got the dog and stopped watching movies and TV lol :)
