i won’t make a six seven joke because this film was elite and it deserves better than that; but just know i’m holding it back so hard right now.
okay now into my actual review….
- the time my film teacher said, “what’s in the box?” and proceeded to laugh at our confused faces hits harder now that i know the meaning. I WAS INFACT NOT LAUGHING. bawling internally more like.
- when my brother gives me a film he’s rated five stars.. i trust him. and most of the time he’s 100% correct. so yes george, you did it again. you can take all the credit for my education in the field of films.

“This isn't going to have a happy ending.”
I was sat in shock for atleast two minutes after the credits ended. I’ve never felt so much suspense in my seventeen years of life, I’m terrified of that killer and probably won’t be sleeping tonight incase i’ve committed a sin that i don’t know about and get hunted down by him.
I also can’t get over Detective Mills. Why why why. I understand the film cannot be named Six, BUT COME ON! let my guy walk free 🙏🏻 Don’t you understand? He’s just a sarcastic little guy! He didn’t mean anything by it duh 🙄 Wrath my ass! He’s a friendly guy, I swear.
“John Doe has the upper hand!” I had such chills at that line. This film is so perfectly executed and shot, it’s incredible. If you’ve not watched it - which it seems is only me, but if you haven’t - go and do so ASAP.
I’m easily entertained, yes, but I’m not easily shocked - mainly because I seem to attract spoilers - but this film was plot twist after plot twist and even though I slightly guessed the ending before it happened, (i’ll admit like two minutes before but shush, i’m a genius let’s stick with that narrative) I was still begging it not to be true. I was just in constant disbelief and awe at how this film was written.
Long live the bromance of Mills and Somerset.
