We have just watched The Talented Mr Rippley for the first time. Omg it was so good. You literally need a bottle of wine and two valium to watch it.

Has anyone got any good film recommendations that's a good watch with a good twist?

Most Hitchcock films would fit the bill.

The Sixth Sense.

The Usual Suspects.

Fight Club.

Arrival

Brefugee · 29/07/2023 22:32

quite old now but No Way Out with Kevin Costner (from the 80s)

namechangertoday098 · 29/07/2023 22:35

The Departed is one of my favourite ever films.

@Brefugee @EineReiseDurchDieZeit thank you both I've never heard of those films.

@Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g watched some Hithcock during lockdown one. Totally forgot about them. Will maybe rematch or look up new ones. Thank you for the other recommendations.

Ooh Arlington Road and Memento should both fit the bill (depends if you've seen them!)

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.

Shutter Island

Scalessayeek · 29/07/2023 22:45

The prestige is good for a plot twist! Trying to think of some more…

lucya66 · 29/07/2023 22:47

Hard candy

Slinkyminky22 · 29/07/2023 22:48

Just watched Run last weekend. I think it was on Netflix, or possibly Paramount. It had a great twist and suspense.

Jewelanemone · 29/07/2023 22:48

Do you like extraordinarily graphic and disturbing horror films? If so, Pig (2010) is the one for you. Never in a million years did I see that twist coming.

TortolaParadise · 29/07/2023 22:52

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)

Shoemadlady · 29/07/2023 22:52

Primal fear. Classic!

Horsedoglover59 · 29/07/2023 22:52

The Prestige is very good.
Have you ever seen Se7en? That's quite good too, and even if you're not keen, it's no hardship to gaze at a younger Brad Pitt for a while!

@MBM18 shutter Island is one of the best films ever made in my opinion.

@Scalessayeek never heard of the prestige. Thank you

@lucya66 again never heard of that thank you.

@Slinkyminky22 oh thank you. We have paramount on a 7 day free trail.

@Jewelanemone not really but you have me interested.
