Favourite movie twists *may contain movie spoilers*

The Others, I didn't see coming, and A Beautiful Mind because I had no idea what the film was about before I watched it, and I'm glad I didn't know. With The Usual Suspects...********SPOILER***********












I recognised Spacey's voice at the beginning, dammit. :( But I didn't notice how he was using all the things in the office to tell the story. That was great.
 
Re: Along Came a Spider. I haven't seen the movie, but the twist you describe is always the first thing I suspect in that kind of movie!
 
***SPOILERS***

Yes... and no. I thought the real twist in The Others was the revelation of the role-reversal POV...

The Sixth Sense owes a great deal of gratitude to Carnival of Souls too...
 
What do you mean? The thing you find out about the main character in 6thSense is the same thing you find out about the main characters in The Others.

I'm rubbish at guessing twists usually (generally deliberately so) but The Others I guessed real quick, having already seen 6th Sense. In fact it seemed SO obvious that I thought I had to be mistaken. And once I'd guessed it there wasn't much left to enjoy in the movie. It seemed much more morbid and suffocating than 6th Sense, which actually leaves you feeling a bid uplifted.
 
When I first saw 6th sense, I didn't see the twist coming, but I do remember thinking that the scene where Bruce Willis took the boy to a party to hand over something (I cant remember the detail) that the scene was unbelievable. Bruce Willis looked totally out of place, but nobody commented on this or even looked at him. It was actually playing on my mind and spoiling the film
 
Sixth Sense's twist knocked me for six (no pun intended). Have you noticed how many 'number' films Willis has been in?
Loaded Weapon 1, Look Who's Talking too, Die Hard 3, Four Rooms, Fifth Element, Sixth Sense, Whole Nine YarRAB, Whole Ten YarRAB, Twelve Monkeys, 16 Blocks.
 
Empire Strikes Back certainly neeRAB a mention in this list. I imagine that twist would have definately been surprising.
