      You should consider the 1990 movie, "Presumed Innocent". Harrison Ford, Brian Dennehy, Raúl Juliá, Bonnie Bedelia, Paul Winfield and Greta Scacchi. It's a great courtroom drama with a twist I certainly didn't see coming.

    "Vanilla Sky" was a brilliant movie! It is in the same class as 'The Matrix", "Being John Malkovich", "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", and "Fight Club".

    I’ve seen Seven Pounds twice. My mom wanted me the first time I saw it that it was one of the saddest movies she’s ever seen and that I (a frequent cryer in movies) would absolutely cry in it. I figured out pretty early on that Tim probably lost his wife and that’s why he’s sad but I still had no clue what the main plot had to do with his wife’s death and why he was doing all of the things he’s been doing. The ending I thought was pretty good and well executed. Plus it made me sob over the last 30ish minutes of the film. I rewatched it and spent the whole movie in tears knowing what everything meant

    Fun fact about the Orphan:
    The psychiatric ward doctor is played by a czech actor Karel Roden. Even the writings seem to be czech. About 10 or 15 years ago, there was a similar case in the Czech republic, when an adult woman (about 30yo) took an identity of a teen. If I remember well, she was at first involved in a case, where she was adopted by a family that abused her. Already an adult imposing to be a child. She was a mystery and no one had an idea who she really was. She was just considered an abused child. Then the truth came out. She disappeared. Only to reappear in another country (I think it was Norway) as a "child" again.

    How are these supposedly bad movies?
    Lucky Number Slevin -
    This is not about the twist, but just great dialogue.
    A Perfect Getaway -
    I would have enjoyed that without the twist
    Reindeer Games -
    I really don't understand why the director and the actors seemed to want to distance themselves from this movie. It's just fun, and when I saw it in a sneak preview the audience LOVED it.
    The Uninvited -
    The acting made this movie enjoyable. Sure, the twist elevated it, but it was certainly not a bad movie before that.
    Identity -
    I have read the book and saw a movie that for some reason had a happy ending, but I hadn't really connected this to And then there were none / little Indians. The "twist" came too early, but it was enjoyable nonetheless.
    Devil -
    "too similar to Saw" - while showing a scene from the original movie, when gruesomeness was relatively minimal.
    The Boy - without the twist, maybe not great, but definitely not bad.
    Don't Worry Darling - not really a twist if you're expecting it, is it?
    Life -
    Nah, the "twist" didn't really save this formulaic movie.
    Click -
    Not really a twist. But Walken saves any movie he's in.
    The Skeleton Key -
    One of the few Ehren Krueger stories I actually liked. Not a great movie, but definitely not bad either.
    Vanilla Sky -
    Nope, the twist didn't really save that movie.
    Fallen -
    Another movie with highly entertaining dialogue and scenes. That, and it's rather explicitly not a twist.
    Repo Men -
    All right, that was a bad movie. Still so after the twist.
    Ender's Game -
    Bad? What have you been smoking?
    T3 -
    Definitely not saved by the mediocre twist.
    Saw 3D -
    A stab in the back for all who mainly loved the first movie.

    I actually really liked “The Boy” until that ending. The ending ruined it for me personally.

    Book of eli is such a badass movie. The twist is revealed when the bad guy opens the bible and its in braille, this thing he’s been chasing is completely useless and the person he’s been hunting is the only one to understand it. Not only this, but Eli was able to recite the entire bible from memory before his death, forever preserving a very important part of our history.
    Beautiful movie with a really nice message

    Not sure if it's a good example, but there is one movie I've seen, can't remember the name but it's based off the Deep Blue chess computer. Simplified but the story being about a disgraced chess grandmaster who lost to the first chess playing computer, causing him to suffer a breakdown, ruining his life. He's tricked into playing a chess game against a rich megalomaniac using real people as players where they die as the game progresses. The final twist at the end after he's forced to play as a piece and sacrifices his life so his estranged wife isn't killed....it's actually an overly elaborate intervention made by his wife to try and help him get over his trauma, as he was playing against the same computer again, not a human player, and he managed to beat it.

    Lucky Number Slevin is an underrated gem. The scene with Morgan Freeman and Sir Ben Kingsley alone is worth watching. And the more people watch Fallen, the better.

    Wait, it wasn’t clear and predictable before the reveal that it was obviously the pod w the alien that was landing on earth in Life??? I mean, the pod started spinning out of control in space, and that’s only bad if it’s the pod that’s supposed to be landing on earth. Nothing bad about the pod that’s going to deep space being knocked off course and away from earth

    The thing with Dr. Gordon is, I remember people theorizing about him being the accomplice back when Saw 3 came out, refering to the limp of the guy who implats a key behind that dude's eye, the surgical skills needed to perform that technique, his unknown and ambiguous fate after Saw 1. I hoped they would reveal it. Glad they did... BUT WHY IS THE BLOOD FUCKING PINK IN THE ENTIRE MOVIE?!!

    Don't forget that Vanilla Sky came out after Minority Report. I like to think that after the end of Vanilla Sky, Tom Cruise's character was revived but lost his fortune in the process so he had to find a new career in law enforcement in the future and became a cop for a Precrime division.

    I thought the Nutcracker movie was pleasant enough, but it's.... It's a kids' movie. I watched it with my kids. The accusation that it's too simple, a fight between good and evil? It still has to be the Nutcracker at its core, which again, is the dream of a child!
