Am I missing something?

Rating: 3/10 (23 September 2015)

What is the fuss about this film? Yes it has good acting (at times), atmospheric scenes and well done dead bodies. But I would not understand someone wanting to view this more than once.
Basically it is a mystery story of a generic serial killer that eventually owes up to his killings (well that was easy mystery to solve) then kills the wife of a detective who shoots and kills him in anger. Am I missing something? Morgan retires, serial killer dead, Brad lives on depressed without a wife. OK.
The serial killer, killed people he thought were disgusting so he thought in his mind he was doing a good thing (yeah that is just like any serial killer, not original) then he ended up dying and the detective lost his wife who was pregnant. BIG WOOP.
Yeah its well told story but I just don't see it being so clever that it is a best movie of all time and certainly doesn't warrant any more viewings in my eyes.
I don't know I just didn't find myself caring much for Brad Pitts character or his wife. So I didn't really care at the end when you find out she was killed.
It felt out of place when they randomly started laughing round the dinner table, I was looking around thinking "Really?" why are they laughing hysterically?
Cringeworthy stuff in the cafe when the wife tells morgan she is pregnant, morgan says "I got to go" she says "Morgan................... thankyou" AHHH thankyou, I just rolled my eyes seriously. (forgotten Freemans character name sorry)
Overrated actually boring/predictable.
Off the top of my head I mean this isn't even my favourite film I have just watched it recently is all, something like "Shutter Island" leaves you thinking and is just overall a better film hands down in my opinion. This film you get to the end, bored thinking OK. Fight Club another GOOD film with twists, clever and real top film. Se7en not in my eyes.
