Best movie ever made

Rating: 10/10 (8 April 2002)

Of my top 10 movies, Se7en counts for 1 through 5. Fantastic dialogue, superb acting (OK Gwyneth but I've seen her do worse). The whole thing is totally believable (with the one exception of the 'keep out' tape on the inside) and let's face it most real life endings are not happy.
I have seen this movie over 50 times and I cannot think of many movies I have seen more than twice (Pulp fiction, Fight Club, Mulholland Drive, The Producers, Matrix, Bladerunner).
I have sympathy for John Doe's point of view as I am sure does Somerset.
Kevin Spacey is amazing, this breaks in his voice during the car monologue shows real psychotic emotion and the framing of the scene by Fincher is simplistic genius.
Pitt's acting at the end is truly gut wrenching and the subliminal flash is a clever touch used by Fincher again in Fight Club.
Watch this movie again and study it for the classic it is.
