What to say

Rating: 8/10 (20 May 2002)

I must say this is one of the best movies of all time but there are a contradiction, a logic mistake in the movie that I can't get around.
The fulfillment of John Doe's horrifying plan is based around David Mills (Brad Pitt) and his wife (Gwyneth Paltrow). John Doe envy Mills wife, that's is sin. And when Mills kills him he is punished and in the same time Mills wrath is punished by letting Doe win and the fact that is wife is dead.

The plan of John Doe has been planned for a long time. The victim of sloth has been tied up in his bed precisely a year. So we can be sure of the fact that John Doe has planned it at least a year.
We also learn that Mills and his wife have recently moved to the nameless city because of Mills new job. They have only lived there four a week or something.
Then we can see that when John Doe started his sinister plan he didn't know about Mills and his Wife. His sin wasn't obvious.
Of course we could say that he could have picked another woman, another victim for his own sin (envy). But then it wouldn't have been an inspector. Freeman character is unwed so he is excluded. It had to be an investigator of the gruesome murders to have worked the way he had planned.
This is just a thought that I got. But I don't see anything wrong about it. For me there exist a loophole in Se7en, which is a big disappointment.
But hey, ignore that and have a lot of fun watching this otherwise spectacular and horrifying movie.
9/10 (degraded after the discovery)
