In this film fan's humble opinion we will never find a film that manipulates the viewer as subtlely as is possible. Why? Because if a film manipulates you effectively then you don't even have a clue about, therefore you can't point out what would be the greatest example of manipulation.
Having seen the Sixth Sense on the recommendation of a friend, I worked out where the plot was going after 15 minutes. No it was not rewarding at the end when I was right. Equally I found The Usual Suspects could be figured out about halfway through the film. That leaves one of the best endings so far, though I admit to being inebriated while I watched it, Arlington Road. For me this film had one of the best twists I've seen for a long time. I was wondering if anyone wanted to share their views or recommend films with particularly unexpected twists..... DON'T GIVE THEM AWAY THOUGH!!

That makes two of us then Funky
Exactly. The key to enjoying a film and being suprised by an ending is to compose your mind so you think that Big Brother rules and 5*5 = 13. Then you become dumb and are easily entertained! Best films are viewed like this.
your right sixth sense was very good and had an incredible ending to it.
I think unbreakable tried to recreate the same effect but didn't succeced.
Unbreakable was a good idea but was very rushed and was just not believable. Arlington Road is the best twist I've ever seen but that kid at the start i think made everyone a bit edgy,works though.

I think I know what you mean - I worked out the twist in the Sixth Sense half way through the fil and it didnt have the same effect on me after that!!
