movie review on seven

<Tab/><Tab/><Tab/>Seven was directed by David Fincher, creator of Alien.
When Seven was first released, it became an enormous box-office hit because it finally did
something most audiences had never seen for a long time. Seven dazzled us with spectacular
visuals and engrossed us with a frightening story. It also sparked controversy over many of the
graphic murders portrayed. Fincher creates interesting characters that we grow to like and then he
spins the film around and makes us sick to our stomach.
<Tab/><Tab/> <Tab/>The movie begins with a young couple moving to New
York to begin a new life. Detective Mills known as Brad Pitt and his wife Tracy Mills known as
Gwyneth Paltrow move into a good-sized apartment and Mills goes to work alongside veteran and
retiring Detective Somerset known as Morgan Freeman. At first, Somerset doesn't like his new
and impatient partner, but he likes Mill's wife. Detective Mills and Somerset are sent to a murder
scene to investigate the brutal and torturous killing of an extremely obese man. This murder is just
the start of a consequent game of cat and mouse with an undetermined killer as the mouse. As they
get closer to solving the case and catching the killer, the "preacher's" message begins to appear
directly more towards Mills and Somerset. Freeman discovers that the murderer is leading them
through a series of death, and clues, based upon the Seven Deadly Sins of Gluttony, Sloth, Greed,
Pride, Envy, Lust, and Wrath.
<Tab/><Tab/><Tab/>This movie is worthy of having a five star rating for its
creepy visuals and grotesque murders. Seven is an engrossing tale that will have enough chills and
thrills for action fans and huge helpings of brain-stretching story for thinkers. Brad Pitt gives a
stunning and inspired performance. Freeman, on the other hand, steals the film as the veteran
detective. His poetic dialogue is given an added touch by Freeman's almost repetitive tone which
fits the style of Seven. Pitt's talkative character gives Freeman the perfect opposite to work with. I
would recommend this movie to viewers because it's an interesting and horrific and yet gruesome
movie. Seven has been the best film I've seen. Even though Seven is rated R, it is one of the best
movies ever made and will be remember for a long time to come.
