Variety - Todd McCarthy
The Usual Suspects is an ironic, bang-up thriller about the wages of crime. A terrific cast of exciting actors socks over this absorbingly complicated yarn that's been spun in a seductively slick fashion by director Bryan Singer.

Newsweek - Unnamed
This one's done right. Here's an intelligent movie with no special effects. You have to pay close attention, to listen hard to its cross-fires of dialogue.

Baltimore Sun - Ann Hornaday
Dense, ironic and thoroughly engrossing caper melodrama.

ReelViews - James Berardinelli
The Usual Suspects is an accomplished synthesis of noir elements and, as such, is an entertaining entry to the genre.
85
Mr. Showbiz - F. X. Feeney
Byrne is a stand-up poet the way some actors are stand-up comics. His innate depth prompts The Usual Suspects to transcend its own cleverness--and this is the movie's smartest, least predictable surprise.
