This was a twisty, curvy, throwing all kinds of unexpected things in your face kind of film and I liked it. The whole plot was a surprise, because what you think is happening isn't and even when you think you know what's going on that's not it either! The script was well-done because the whole thing is a mystery unfolding inside another mystery. The cast was excellent and they did a good, believable job with the roles. *SPOILER ALERT* At the end, the only thing that irked me a bit was that these brothas basically ended up playing into the overall stereotype, even if it was ingenious but then again they had the very best reason in the world. So there ya go. A thoroughly entertaining flight of fun

There truly are some dizzy viewers out there! As a film producer myself, I gave this film a 9, and that's because my only issue was that some of the emotional scenes didn't feel genuine. Other than that, this was a BRILLIANTLY written and performed film...PERIOD! How can you be confused with the time jumps? IT TELLS YOU WHEN IT'S THE PAST...and the lighting of the scenes change SIGNIFICANTLY when it's back to the present. WOW! The story was absolutely one of a kind. People are criticizing the woods in the South not really being the way they are in the movie...REALLY??? That's what you're basing your rating on??? smdh. I think the low raters might be mad at something else...like accuracy in the film. *shrug* GREAT MOVIE!!!

Good Movie story line, well acted. To Bad whomever was in charge of costumes, didn't bother with checking some of the props that were used on the uniforms of the Officers... the Sheriff had both a PFC and a Spc4 insignias on his uniform and all the officers were displaying multiple rank insignias of Private, corporal or Sergeant ranks at the same time. Noticed the insignia for Artillery on one shoulder panel and the Sheriff had infantry insignia on his breast pocket. Jeesh any military person could have advised them better than the person they had handling wardrobe. Other that that, not a bad movie..

I was certainly entertained by the movie. Since the synopsis has it, the fact that the two black guys are university professors/researchers is not a spoiler. The other twists are interesting enough. The premise holds your interest through its run time, and the film doesn't run too long. One minor issue was all of the jump backs in time. It was a little much to keep track of what is present day vs. past. The BIG issue is that (and this is not spoiler either) even if they returned the money and explained themselves, they still committed a crime. It's a little far-fetched that they would be let off scot-free by multiple cities, EVEN when the nature of their study is explained (the race card stuff). I get that they want you to think that they are let go because of the explanation and the notion that if the race stuff got out, it would make the cops look bad, so they just let them go. It's somewhat of a clever script, I'll give them that, and the performances are good. I'm giving it 6/10 out because 5 is average and this is ever-so-slightly above that, but this isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread. It's an entertaining watch if you can see it for free or very low cost.

I think the description of the movie may have thrown me off a little bit, because I was expecting the events to turn out differently, and the lead characters to be different. I must say, when the experiment that is the movie's plot goes wrong and the goals of the experiment start to reveal itself, it made for an interesting roller-coaster of events done in a very low key matter, and very well. It's funny, the movie tries to be cleaver and show you that things are not what they seem, but it messes up somewhere and the movie falls victim of the point it was trying to make, and as a result does not make it at all. the summary made me feel that it was trying to speak out against prejudice, but I felt everyone in the film just got stereotyped. I don't know if the filmmaker intended to do this or realized what he was doing, but if that's not the case he may want to strangle the man who promoted this film. It's a good film if you can take race out of the equation, I couldn't.

Refreshingly different thriller that although shot on a budget is well edited, shot and contains some great acting. I must admit that initially I was not that impressed but as you watch more the plot evolves and the characters start to make an impact. There is some great editing that really pieces together the story, yes maybe the redneck police are a little one sided but situations like this are believable. Without saying too much it's a great scam! The two key actors (cop and bank robber) deliver great performances and the twist at the end is unexpected till the last minute. Well worth your time and deserves at least a 7.

"The Suspect" has all the polish and professionalism of some grad-school student's final project for a PhD in Cinema. The premise of the movie is so improbable and loopy that it requires a complete suspension of disbelief even to get through it. However, I won't reveal what that premise is, for to do so would be to engage in the biggest plot spoiler since "The Crying Game." All I can tell you is that it involves two African-American men who may have robbed a bank in a rural Midwest community. "May" is indeed the operative word here, for it turns out there is far more to the story than what appears on the surface. If all that sounds somehow intriguing, then I'm doing more justice to the movie than it actually deserves. I don't question the good intentions of those who made the film, but it so ineptly directed and so badly acted, so filled with screeds and bromides about racism and justice, and so bogged down by over-earnest plotting and a confusing time-shifting narrative, that even the best of intentions can't make a silk purse out of this particular sow's ear. I've deliberately avoided identifying the individuals responsible for "The Suspect," both those in front of the camera and those behind it, and I wish them nothing but the best in their future careers in movie-making. But I doubt anyone will be rushing to claim credit for this underwhelming, if well-intentioned, cinematic misfire.

First, let me say that I can't believe some users are posting such low reviews after having admitted to not even seeing the entire movie. They must be impressively psychic to know exactly how the movie ends without watching it all the way through! Their scores make the movie seem bad to others that may only just look at the composite score out of 10, when in actuality it is a very gripping and intriguing movie. Advice: Don't initially look too much into the plot (watch it cold like I did). Just sit back and enjoy everything as it unfolds. Don't judge anything while watching or wonder what makes sense or not. Don't try and scan for possible continuity errors. Don't mindlessly check Facebook or casually invest your attention to this movie. Don't think you know it all or are better than everyone (or possibly just better than everyone you are watching). Just watch and take it all in... This movie does all of the thinking for you and will even remind you as it goes with brief flashbacks to something a character has said. Save all of the aforementioned "don'ts" for when the credits roll and only then should you reflect back on the movie to gauge whether or not it was a valid use of your time and attention. I stumbled across it on Netflix and put it on very late into the night (actually, early morning) expecting it to be just the sleeping pill I needed. To my surprise, I remained riveted as the sun rose on the next day. Oops! Anyway, I'm glad I didn't miss out on this very smart film. Enjoy!
