Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

A truly special film, this is brilliant. Great characters and performances Lynch's 'procedural' is something to be admired known for his particularly highly skilled productions this is yet another, with great action and grounded characters with motive that's entirely understandable I can't soeak highly enough of this release. Visuals that are truly atmospheric and the production context regarding the villain which i won't spoil 'Se7en' is magnificent I highly recommend

If you could get a time machine and go back to when this movie was originally released, it'd probably be pretty good. But in 2018 it was as cheesy as your mom's spaghetti. The "twist" at the end was predictable and no twist at all. Boooo

Since the term was first coined, serial killers have fascinated the general public. Filmmakers have capitalized on this fascination across all forms of media, from Anthony Perkins' two-faced performance as Norman Bates to Sir Anthony Hopkins' mesmerizing role of Dr, Hannibal Lector to the very successful television show Criminal Minds. Se7en is a film that stands amongst the greatest serial killer films ever made and that is due in large part to David Fincher's vision. After being forced to deal with a unresponsive and overstepping production company for Alien 3, Fincher was determined to create a film that completely realized his vision and not that of production company executives. Everything about this film plays an important role in consciously and subconsciously building this world for the audience, from the overall production design to the small, seemingly insignificant choices when lighting both Somerset and Mills' apartments. Se7en has many elements in it which students of film should be studying, specifically in terms of world building, set design, lighting, and the subtle ways Fincher builds tension in each scene. Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt naturally play off of each other, making their interactions believable as a grizzled, jaded retiring detective trying to impress upon a optimistic, naive newly-transferred detective the darkness of the city in which they work. Although he isn't in the film for very long, Kevin Spacey plays the serial killer John Doe as an emotionless yet understandable man twisted by the same dark city he claims he is trying to wake up. My only issue with this film is that sometimes it is so dark that I wasn't able to pick up on details but this only happened a few times so it did nothing to effect the whole viewing experience. Se7en is a masterfully crafted film directed by a man who truly understands how tension and horror works and acted by those who truly know their craft and allow the audience to connect with them, even the serial killer.
