Veteran
Detective William Somerset (Morgan Freeman) is a detective who is set on
retiring in the near future. Detective
David Mills (Brad Pitt) is a young man who recently transferred to the homicide
department. He’s married to a beautiful
young woman named Tracy (Gwyneth Paltrow).
Somerset partners with Mills to investigate a series of murders
involving the seven deadly sins. Serial
killer John Doe (Kevin Spacey) horrifically murders seven victims based on each
of the deadly sins. Doe takes the
detectives on a dark and subdued journey full of some of the most sadistic
murders they’ve ever witnessed. Se7en is a pretty awesome movie. It is one of the most thrilling and
terrifying crime thrillers you will ever see.
David Fincher turns what could have been a formulaic cop film into a refreshingly
masterful work with nail-biting suspense and jaw-dropping surprises. Be warned that you will not leave this movie
a happy individual. This is not your
typical thriller where the criminal is caught, and the world is a better
place. With its grim outlook on the
world, Se7en is a flick that will
leave you reeling afterwards.
