Had it not been for the people telling me "OH! You'll never guess the twist!" I probably wouldn't have. But yeah, I was looking for it the whole movie. By the time Bruce Willis goes to dinner with his wife, I had figured it out. Which kind of sucked because that was really the whole schtick of the movie. Still really good. Best M. Night Shamalamadingdong movie ever.

i didn't find the ending at all controversial and actually saw it coming throughout most of the movie.


You saw him choosing to get a lobotomy? Because that was the real surprise of the ending.

Is it worth the watch knowing how it ends?

I would say so. I really liked it. It's good.

I ruined the ending to Usual Suspects for my friend by telling him someone won an Oscar for their role.

My idiot boss ruined Book of Eli for me, but I still loved the movie.

I went in blind and really enjoyed it. I watched it after seeing "Inception" so I might have been on a Dicaprio high still.

I did no research, and had no idea in general what it was about. That's probably why I liked it so much.

agreed with Carson. had the ending pegged just from the trailer, but watched it anyway just to see - was dissapointed in it all the way around.

Love Scorsese films, but this dissapointed me greatly.
