I like how obvious the obvious twist was, to the point that the real twist was that everyone had already figured it out and made a counter plan

And to me, the best part about the counter plan was that they actually forgot about a crucial aspect of the Metaverse and didn't remember until the day of. Made it seem more realistic considering the personality types.

Identity is built on a good twist.

I havent seen Shutter Island, but it apparently has a good one too.

For me personally The Sixth Sense is probably tops.

The sixth sense blew my mind the first time. Then watching it back while knowing, it was really cool the things you notice.

In terms of the execution I cant think of an example that was done better than The Sixth Sense. Theres a very fine line between having enough clues and foreshadowing that your audience feels foolish for not having guessed the twist in advance, and having the twist be predicted. The Sixth Sense walks it pretty much perfectly. I dont know a single person who figured out the twist in advance (unless they had had it spoiled for them), but in retrospect it basically feels like the movie is screaming the twist at you the entire time.

I thought it was dumb. Like, what was even the point of that? Like the robot devil in Futurama, "aha! You never expected to find me in the refrigerator!"

My brother figured it out from the opening scene. He asked "So, is he dead? and we went "oh? Ooohhhh..."
