The Usual Suspects vs. Alien

"the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist"

No one saw that ending coming. The first time watching The Usual Suspects is one of the most engrossing movie experiences of my life.

Easily Kevin Spacey's finest role. Not to mention the only relevant movie in history to feature Stephen Baldwin.

This is probably the toughest 1st rd matchup for me  :|

Gotta go with Kaiser Soze  :evil:

It's been long enough that I really don't remember Alien much. Makes this fairly easy.

Remember when Chazz Palminteri was one of the hottest names in Hollywood?

Usual Suspects is a favorite of mine, but it's no Alien.

Definitely need to watch Alien again if you can't remember it.  One of the best horror films of all time.

Yeah, Usual Suspects hands down for me.

on the way back, I had to wacth it again.
I got home, rented it, and watched it with my wife.

seriously, though. if y'all haven't seen Alien for a while, watch it. on a big TV. on blu-ray. it's so beautiful. if you really want to be surprised, watch Aliens right after, and see how shabby and cheap it looks in comparison. yeah, it's a fun action sequel, but it's not anywhere near as good as the original.

plus you need to prepare for Prometheus this summer...

[justjezmund]

Suspects is in the top three dramatic thrillers of all time. So yeah sorry ms weaver.
