my choices are (pretty much the ones in the best ending thread):
- The Others (with Nicole Kidman)
- The Usual Suspects
- And Justice for All (with Al Pacino)
- Vertigo (by Hitchcock)
- The Last Temptation Of Christ (by Scorsese)
- Twelve Monkeys (by Terry Gilliam with Bruce Willis)
- Seven (by David Fincher)
- The Game (with Michael Douglas)
- Arlington Road (with Jeff Bridges)
- Abre Los Ojos (by Alejandro Amenábar) (Tom Cruise made a remake called "Vanilla Sky")
- Fight Club
- American Beauty
- Memento
- The Life of David Gale (by Alan Parker)
- The Manchurian Candidate
- The Prestige (by Cristopher Nolan)
- Unbreakable (of Shyamalan)
- Signs (of Shyamalan)
- Cube (from Canada)
 
i like fight club cuz you have to watch it over again. but sixth sense is the top one i've seen. is CUBE a good one?
 
One movie that was full of plot twists that I never understood was Mission Impossible. That and Ocean's Twelve. Neither of them really made much sense to me. :confused:
 
saw one say what you want about the other's but no one saw that ending coming in the frist one i thought it was well very well done i liked four's ending too. didn't really care for the endings of two and three so much.
 
Fight Club was amazing during the 1st half, and fell apart the 2nd. It became a movie that had nothing to do with fighting and self-hatred. Also, Tyler told people to think for themselves and to be their own self, yet made a cult. WTF.
 
^That was the whole point of the movie. Society proclaims "the individual" but is constructed to maintain conformity. Tyler Durden was a personality projection of the unnamed narrator, so obviously there's gonna be some contradictions in behavior.
 
I think "Fight Club" was Edward Norton's best film. I thought he did a good job in "The Illusionist" too. That had a pretty good ending...to see how it all fell in place.

"The Usual Suspects" "Sixth Sense" "The Prestige" were all mind blower films..."Memento" was an amazing film but it didn't really have a surprise twist ending, imo.
 
The Sixth Sense? Give me a break! What plot? :crash:

Psycho was the first one I thought of.

not on the list:

- The Conversation (Eavesdropper becomes paranoid eavesdropping victim after finding out the truth behind his latest job)
