Summary: Absolutely amazingly well-done film
Review: "Se7en" seemed intriguing from the point of its poster: something about the seven deadly sins used in a murdering rampage. However, the final outcome far exceeded audiences expectations as it thrilled, shocked and completely entertained us with its imagery and creativeness.

Directed by the amazing David Fincher, "Se7en" choregraphs its way through a rainy, murky city filled with a rate of crime comparable to any large city. However, attracting the attention of Detective Mills (an amazing Brad Pitt) and just-about-to-retire Detective Somerset (always good Morgan Freeman) is a murderer who kills his victims based upon the seven deadly sins.

Incredible in its art directing, fast-paced in its action and disturbing in its ability to disgust you, "Se7en" reaches into the dark holes that we want to crawl down but don't have the nerve to. Filled with surprising guest appearances and scenes that are all too remembered -- the protrayal of "Sloth" is utterly chilling -- it gives that attention that "Silence of the Lambs" sends.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best movies EVER.
Review: The script. The setting. The cinematography. The ground-breaking takes....
Se7en is a work of art. Plain and Simple.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow
Review: With an interesting plot and excellent acting, Seven deserves the full five stars. Kevin Spacey plays a killer who commits his crimes to reflect the seven deadly sins (lust, gluttony, vanity, etc.). Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt are the detectives assigned to the case. The way Spacey's character murders his victims is gruesome, however, what I thought was clever about the film was how the horrible details of the crimes are implied and not shown graphically (which helps those of us who can't stand gorey scenes.) Don't expect a happy ending, however, do expect a thought-provoking one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best DVD ever!
Review: This movie is fantastic and the dvd has so many features. It is by far the best dvd ever.

Summary: A Suspensful Masterpiece
Review: Seven is terrific. Seven (and Fight Club) are my all time favourite movies.
I'll try and make this review short so all I'll say is :
Very creative and Very suspenful.
The best climax and ending in the whole history of movies.
Not for the faint hearted because of the aftermaths of the killings.
Shockingly powerful and moving
Great acting, script and directing.
Dark but very effectively set.
The most frightning and creative killer in movie history.
For those who have strong stomachs and love suspense along with
great acting, script, story and directing. This is your movie.
Alot of people I know who hate suspense and who are afraid of lots of gore loved this.
(some people may disagree with me but)i think it's a crowed pleaser, But you may still find some scenes to graphic.
It is the best film ever made in my books and I cant recommend this movie enough to you because its just so magnificent.
I really mean it when I say( or write) this. Read this carefully
DO NOT MISS THIS BECAUSE ITS JUST TOO DANM GREAT

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Oh, he didn't know
Review: Seven is the serial killer movie that lingers over every other attempt made since Seven. This is not so much for the story, which a little too clever and gets a little too shocky for it's own good, this movie created the most oppressive, despair filled world seen in the movies for quite sometime. Where Blade Runner had pollution and huge overbearing buildings in the future, Seven finds darkness and sickening inner sanctums in the present world. It's amazing what director David Fincher does with something as simple as an apartment to make it a frankly, disgusting environment. Morgan Freeman is the lynchpin that holds this whole world together, without him this movie would have failed. He is the character that the audience can empathize with, and watch with him as the world falls apart around him. I watch this movie in amazement at just how depressing it is, and how much atmosphere and dread is fit into a 2 hour running time. Now onto the DVD. As with all Fincher special editions, it is great. 4 Commentaries, numerous deleted scenes, alternate endings, trailers, behind the scenes, and on and on. It's overwhelming at first, but there isn't anything about this movie that isn't touched in the dvd. I love Finchers commentaries, he genuinely seems interested in telling his audience how and why he picked certain set-ups, and how he got the movie made and all of those juicy tidbits you and I have grown to love. I have grown tired of directors seeming bored and detached as they spout on and on, about the actors and how great they were, and really not saying a whole lot. Fincher is different, and I appreciate his willingness to do the kind of in-depth stuff he does, because it really does get people to appreciate the movie a lot more. I have gone way off track. As you can see, I love this dvd. The movie has it's flaws, they aren't numerous but they're there. The DVD however, is a must-buy and a definite for anyones collection.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the most DISTURBING movies ever made
Review: This is one of the most disturbing movies ever made. Of course I could not resist the temptation to buy it when it was 50% off. This is a movie about a crazy man (played by Kevin Spacey) who is punishing people who have fulfilled one or more of the seven deadly sins. This movie is not for the light of heart and definitely is NOT suited for children. The ending is very twisted but not all that satisfying. If you liked this movie you will also like the movie 8mm starring Nicholas Cage.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best!!!!
Review: this movie is by far the most beautiful movie ive ever seen in my life, when i first saw this movie i hated it, but when i went through my cinematical rebirth, i saw it in a more theatrical sense, if u r not a big movie goer u might not like this move, the ending scene is by far the most ingenious ending in theatrical history.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Movie / Excellent Packaging!!
Review: This movie is the perfect example of how the Academy can sometimes overlook great films. Brad Pitt gives one of his best performances as the young go-get-'em cop, while Morgan Freeman adds to his list of amazing performances as a disturbed, retiring, New York cop. This movie focuses most of its attention on character development (rare in today's Hollywood), and the whole movie keeps building and building to the ending scene. It seems as though the screenplay will not be able to deliver an ending worthy of all the build-up but it does just that.
This movie is a must-see and will be a classic in a few years (if it isn't already).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GUILTY GRITTY SIN
Review: This has got to be one of the best thrillers ever!! Fincher is an awesome director, and with Se7en, he made me like Brad Pitt even more. It's movies like this one, that proves Pitt is definitely not just another pretty face!! Morgan Freeman is great, as are Gwyneth and Kevin Spacey. Spacey is one of my favorite actors because of his spine-tingling performance in this flick. A creative plot, surprise ending, and top-notch acting makes "Se7en a perfect ten". This film may be extremely graphic, but hey, it's worth it. A must-see!!
