our comment. "... 5 points just for messing with people's minds."
A twisted noir-thriller about 5 crooks, a million heist, and a mysterious and dreaded crime lord Keyser Soze. Custom agent Kujan tries to get a straight story out of small-time con man "Verbal" Kint about a burning tanker in the San Pedro harbor, 27 dead bodies and the other four temperamental crooks.

It's hard to write about this film without revealing it's cool twists and plots, so just go and rent the fucking thing. Get the DVD version and watch the film with the commentary, wich basically consists of the director and the writer making fun of their own movie. The best part is where Stephen Baldwin looks for million worth of cocaine in a small little cabinet on the boat???
