Good movie with a twist?

[allies]

Hey all, I wanted to watch a movie today with the girlfriend. I want a movie with a good twist at the end, something along the lines of Fight Club. Or any other type of action-y movie that's a thinker (not just a shoot em up type deal, but something like Boondock Saints). Any suggestions? Thanks for the help

Saw ... just watch Saw if you haven't seen it yet.

that movie has one of the best endings in any recent movie IMO.

Good movie, but the GF and I had both figured out what was going on way before the ending. Still a good movie though.

are you serious? No one ive talked to had ANY idea what was really going on until the end.

The Usual Suspects, or Memento if you haven't seen one or the other

Yes. At first it was just a guess. Sort of a "wouldn't it be weird if...." and then the more we thought about it the more sense it made. Of course we also had both figured out The Usual Suspect and The Village way before they ended.

American Beauty. I fell out of my chair at the ending of that movie. Oh, and there's a nice set of boobies in it to.

By the way, the movie is called Memento.

 

[Dedpuhl]

I agree with Saw and Memento.


Other good ones:

Primal Fear
Scream
Wild Things

woah you figured it out beforehand?!? i don't see how that is even possible . but seriously, its a great movie to watch. it was better that i saw it in the theatre on opening day without knowing the movie even HAD a twist in it.

now that you know it has a twist in it, you will not be as shocked at the ending just because you know things aren't what they seem.

but i think, walking out of the theatre of that movie, was one of the most satisfying feelings i have ever had walking out of a theatre. the ending of that movie truly left me in awe. although the acting was poor at best, the movie itself was just put together so well. its a great movie.

Arlington Road has a nice mind fvck at the end.

 

[dxkj]

Arlington Road?


edit: the question mark means, have you seen it, it has a major twist

agreed. that movie was kind of a sleeper hit IMO. that movie truly was badass.

again, another movie i didn't know had a twist in it before i saw it so i was shocked when i actually watched it. awesome movie!

Watch Arlington Road or Saw ... or both!
