Suggestions for movies with a plot twist?
I usually enjoy these types of movies more when the twist occurs at the very end because it leaves me with an increased sense of euphoria (I know, there are other methods but I'm talking about DVDs ;)).
Some of my favorites are: The 6th Sense The Others Se7en (not really a twist but the movie reveals quite a shocker at the very end) The Negotiator Identity What Lies Beneath The Usual Suspects (what a classic!) Any others will be appreciated. |
I thought Saw had a very good ending.
|
Fight Club
Unbreakable Cypher (From the director of Cube, but no Region 1 release yet). Memento Can't think of any more of the obvious ones. |
Million Dollar Baby
Edit: I see this is in DVD talk, so I guess it shouldn't be on here. Say no to bootlegs. |
Crying Game
Soylent Green |
here's some movies where the ending changes your understanding of the rest of the film:
12 Monkeys Mulholland Drive Swimming Pool |
I'll second "Fight Club" and "Memento"...of course "The Usual Suspects" is almost cliche at this point, but a great one indeed.

Here is an old thread:
http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...ighlight=twist But I warn you, by asking this question you are potentially spoiling these movies for yourself if you haven't seen them yet. |
The twist in '15 Minutes', while not in the third act, was truly surprised, possibly the most shocked I've ever been in a theater. Of course, the movie completely falls apart because of ramifications of the twist.

How could I forget?
Memento, Fight Club, and Primal Fear were all good. |

I'm gonna get laughed off the forum for this one, but I immensely enjoyed the plot twist in Identity.
