One of the best horror/mystery film ever made

Rating: 10/10 (19 November 2001)

This is a film that will scare you and will be in the back of your mind forever. I loved this movie for it's creepy effect. It is in the vain of such mentally challenging and scary features as Angel Heart and The Changeling. What really makes this film is it's use of a mystifying story line. Even though the killer is eventually found, the mystery doesn't stop there. Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, and R. Lee Ermey among others round out a very good line-up. Pitt is good as the foul-mouthed young detective Mills. Freeman is awesome as the aging and wisdom-filled detective Somerset. The choice of villain is an especially nice touch but telling would break a great story. Overall, David Fincher exceeded all expectations for this film and that is possibly the main reason it is a classic.
10 out of 10. Try to watch this movie with the lights out.
