A great 1st and maybe 2nd watch. That's probably enough.

Rating: 7/10 (10 March 2016)

An awesome 'mind-blowing, gritty, mature' film, for 16-18 year, acne-riddled teenagers. I saw it when I was 25 and it was a very cool flick, but certainly loses its edge when you've actually watched a bevy of hard-hitting dramas.
Great performances all round. Great script. Well directed. Some plot points are -energetically- a little on the 'rebelling against straight-laced, sheltered parents', as far as the dark, brooding vibes go at times.
As far as Fincher movies go, I probably prefer Se7en which is certainly a brilliant film on all accounts, and if we're talking in this realm of late 90s, early 2000s classics, with a psychological edge, I would definitely put Memento as my favorite.
However; all 3 of these movies are a MUST for any cinema-buff, or general viewer of film.
