"Seitdem dieser verzwickte Thriller das Publikum und die Kritiker 1995 verblüffte und einen Oscar für Christopher McQuarries wendungsreiches Drehbuch erhielt, spaltet Die üblichen Verdächtigen die Filmliebhaber in zwei Lager. Während viele Zuschauer sich sehr am inzwischen berühmten zentralen Geheimnis des Films erfreuten (nämlich: "Wer ist Keyser Söze?"), lassen andere sich nicht so sehr beeindrucken von einem Film, der zu sehr in seine ..."
"Sorti en 1995 sur les écrans, Usual Suspects a mis dans sa poche bon nombre de cinéphiles, et agacé pas mal de ceux qui se sont laissé piéger par ce scénario alambiqué à souhait, au montage particulièrement maîtrisé et au rebondissement final digne des plus grands films du genre. Quelques années après, que reste-t-il du deuxième film de Bryan Singer ? D'abord, une excellente surprise pour tous ceux qui l'on déjà vu : Usual Suspect ..."
"Ever since this convoluted thriller dazzled audiences and critics in 1995 and won an Oscar for Christopher McQuarrie's twisting screenplay, The Usual Suspects has continued to divide movie lovers into opposite camps. While a lot of people take great pleasure from the movie's now-famous central mystery (namely, "Who is Keyser Söze?"), others aren't so easily impressed by a movie that's too enamored of its own cleverness to make much sens ..."
"You wouldn't want to spend much time with the folks from David Rabe's play Hurlyburly. A sensation when it played on stage (with marquee names Harvey Keitel and William Hurt), Rabe's tale of the cocaine-influenced days of Hollywood in the 1980s i"

"Trying to explain the wildly accelerated plot of this non-stop action thriller would be like convincing Quentin Tarantino to retell the saga of \"The Sopranos\" in 15-minutes or less. Don't misunderstand, \"Running Scared\" wastes little time on the nuanced details that make the violent, narratively precise, and intricately characterized world of \"The Sopranos\" so stylish and compelling. But boy, does it have style to spare, not to me ..."
"A contemporary romantic drama borrowing inspiration from It's a Wonderful Life, this thought-provoking holiday film explores the lives of five strangers as they intersect at a crossroads of forgiveness and redemption. In his directorial debut, Chazz Palminteri lends a delicate hand to allow his talent-laden cast creative latitude to portray a handful of odd bedfellows who share little in common but loneliness on Christmas Eve. Susan Sa ..."
"Diabolisch ist Jeremiah Chechiks aufpolierte 1996er Version des französischen Film-Noir-Originals aus dem Jahre 1955, Les diaboliques (Die Teuflischen), in dem sich zwei Lehrerinnen einer Knabenschule anschicken, den Direktor zu töten. Die Drei bilden eine Dreiecksbeziehung aus Rache und Betrug, aus der sich schließlich die betrogene und gedemütigte Ehefrau gemeinsam mit der Geliebten erhebt, um sich zu rächen. Isabelle Adjani (Queen Ma ..."
"Viel zu oberflächlich! Die Geschichte dieses Film noir des Regisseurs Lee Tomahori ist das genaue Gegenteil seines ausgereiften Stils. Zwischen versteckten Motiven und entsetzlichen Darbietungen auf der Leinwand starrt man auf den Lichtbalken, der sich über alte Polizistenschreibtische legt. Beim Nachsinnen über Super-8-Filmmaterial einer nackten Jennifer Connelly schweifen die Gedanken -- ach ja, eine Anspielung auf die Eröffnungsszene ..."
"Analyze ThisCast Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal together in a film and it should be a sucker's bet as to who's going to be funnier and who's going to give the more nuanced performance. Somehow, though, De Niro walks away with most of the laughs in Analyze This, a buddy action-comedy about a mob boss (De Niro, natch) suffering from panic attacks who makes a nebbishy shrink (Crystal, natch) an offer he can't refuse--actually, it's not r ..."
"Marisa Tomei releases her inner spitfire in The Perez Family. Dottie Perez (Tomei) comes to the U.S. from Cuba, along with a mixed lot of criminals, lunatics, and political prisoners--including Juan Perez (Alfred Molina), who hopes to be reunited with his wife after 20 years. To work around the bureaucratic politics of the refugee camps, Dottie persuades Juan to pretend that they're married, and drafts a few other Perezes to creat ..."

Castellano's visionary plans to evolve the Cosa Nostra into a legitimate business ultimately lead to his assassination by members of the family, who lived and died by the mob's unwavering dedication to tradition."
