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

The killer is obviously an organised intelligent individual. There is no way he is going to start firing on two men who just happen to be at his door. Psychology fail.

I can't believe it's been 23 years since this movie came out. An absolute classic. Before the Saw franchise there was Se7en. A crime thriller about a self-righteous messianic wannabe that decided to kill (or set up to be killed) seven people who'd committed one of the seven deadly sins.23 years later this movie still holds its own proving that it wasn't just a movie for that era. Set in Metro it could have been any city. The setting was perpetually rainy, dreary, filthy and crime-ridden. It could've been Gotham, Metropolis, Sin City, etc. It was the perfect setting for the crimes that unfolded. The performances were great but no one could outdo the psycho. Considering that there may be some out there that have been under a rock for the last 23 years I don't want to say who the psycho was. But his ability to convey pure smug moralism after having been responsible for multiple deaths was just eerie and even rage-inducing.Se7en is a must see for psychological crime thriller enthusiasts.

Two year before Usual Suspect, a film in which Kevin Spacey is already interpretating a ´secondary role´ that became a major one. As all films by David Fincher, the ambiance is dark, and probably not for the most sensitive ones. The genius of it is the use of the two last capital sins. For who would want to know more, just watch!
