What Happened

Rating: 1/10 (11 January 2009)

David Fincher, Seven, The Game, Fight Club. I love David for how he has inspired me in the past and that I will not forget. I write this review only out of frustration over what seems to be be, unfortunately, a story that is not new to me. I've witnessed the fall of so many artist's over the years into mediocrity that is painful to for me to witness and it plagues my mind indefinitely. I hate people that don't take the time to watch and listen to what they are viewing before making these statements but I have thought long and hard before even thinking of writing this down. Of course, I don't know what Daid Fincher was thinking when he made this film. I think to myself, "Was it the influence of the producers in his ear, the promise of money, or pure experimentation with the notion of making a hammed up piece of redundant slop like this to see how it felt to be a true official Hollywood A-lister untouchable, or purely a bad decision from the start due to the downside of fortune?" but I refuse to believe that Fincher is not a great artist!
I don't need to say much about the ingredients of this film because I think you have already guessed how I see it. All I can say is-David Fincher, Remember me? Im the outsider in this world searching for meaning everyday that I wake up to a commercial world wanting only what it can gleam from my unfulfilled soul. I will continue to carve out my place in this world through my art. Will you join me again?
