(SPOILER)the big plot twist is that the chick in the movie is actually a man
Oh. Awesome.
I believe the single biggest plot twist in film history, though it is now common knowledge and a part of pop culture, happened toward the end of The Empire Strikes Back.
Other films that had plot twists that I thought were well constructed:
The Usual Suspects
Se7en
LA Confidential
And of course:
Monty Python And The Holy Grail: the entire film had a plot that can only be described as twisted.
Take care all.
wow, <a href=http://forums.eyesonff.com/announcement.php?f=2>that</a> was a good plot twist!
Nah, I don't think that qualifies as a plot twist since I doubt many people had a "OMG, WTF?!" reaction. And really, all the great plot twists in film have made audiences go "whoa."
And I would think that script writers would revel in the opportunity to write plot twists. And if they don't, they really should. People aren't revelling nearly as much as they should be these days.
Yes, that flick completely went to hell with plot twists. True overkill.
I think Memento did pretty well.
as if like a tsunami
i had it sussed when he told Marla to jet town.
However, i do feel inclined to say that it is sinister forces at work in these forums. Beware the Ides of Eest.

Subtlty is a lost art in scriptwriting. Plot twists can have just as much (if not more) impact if done quietly and without the "dun dun dun" playing in the background.
I agree that Memento did a great job of linking the pieces together to lead up to the twist.
