Who is Keyser Soze? That is the question everyone thinks about even after they have watched the film. The Usual Suspects is a crime thriller film that connects multiple layers of mystery, curiosity, and lies so that even the most aware viewers will find themselves doubting everything they have been assuming. This is a great film to watch if you are really into crime thrillers with a mystery that will keep you trying to figure out who Keyser Soze is.

The Usual Suspect is a film about five criminals who get arrested and brought in for questions about a hijack that happened in New York. As they are in jail, they come together to come up with a plan to get back to the police force. The plan they created went smoothly, but then they all got called out by the legendary criminal mastermind Keyser Soze. He makes it known that every single one of them has wronged Keyser Soze. So they get told to do a job for them that is very, very dangerous and can kill them all, but whoever succeeds can have 91 million dollars worth of drug money. As I was watching this film, it was very intriguing to me, especially when the name Keyser Soze came up because I was dying to find out who he was, so it really made you think and made you watch the movie carefully to try to figure out who he is. 

What is the message of the film? Well, what I think the message that the film Usual Suspects gives is to never believe everything you hear or see because nothing could be what is told. For example, in Keyser Soze, the stories that are told of him are that he has long hair and is afraid of nothing, but what do we know if this story is true? All we know is that he is among the five criminals. 

One of the characters that stood out to me is Kobayashi, because he is the only person who has seen and spoken to Keyser Soze. Kyser Soze tells him everything that he was to do; he is Keyser Soze because he would technically do what he would do what Soze would do.

 So who is Keyser? The question we still ask ourselves is

what inspired to me to write a review about the usual suspects is trying to figure out who is Kyser Soze why he does the things he does.
