It’s fair to release it on DVD


First of all excuse my English..

Second… this movie started brilliantly .. the end however was stupid.. given that we have seen it before in Usual Suspect…

Third.. 2 twists at the end were ok… BUT imitating Usual Suspects was wrong… and for that reason only I can understand why it will be never released in theaters..

Finally.. I will see it again though…. The acting was stunning.. music was outstanding… cinematography was marvelous… all in all.. this movie just missed it at the end..

Way to post the "Usual Suspect" spoiler twit.

Yeah, OP is severely mistaken. The only similarity between this and Usual Suspect is that Mason's friend and Chaz Pal both realize what the truth is. Wow, what a rip off.

You're a twit, OP. Don't speak unless you know what you are talking about.

Yes it does. What if he didn't mean the Usual Suspects? What if he meant some other movie? Then it has to do with language.

stop being an apologist. Usual Suspects in China is called.... Usual Suspects. Usual Suspects in Russia is called... Usual Suspects. Usual Suspects in Brazil is called Usual Suspects.

I think you see the trend there. (yes, i know that the titles are sometimes translated into the market language, but it is still the same title.)

Language barriers come in the form of translating what you say from one language into another. Titles of movies, however, stay the same. I think it's a bit of a stretch to say that he translated another movie's title from his language into Usual Suspects. That's just a tad coincidental and far fetched.
