Se7en

this film is perfect and there’s no changing any minds about that. se7en can be categorized as a psychological thriller, using a plotline that has been used many times before, just with a twist. the grittiness is just so good and all the foreshadowing for each of the seven deadly sins is truly amazing. i love how you never see any of the murders, fincher just leaves it up to your imagination, which can be worse than seeing it at times. the themes are reflective of our world today, moral decay, and society’s failings, which are revealed by john doe. ultimately, this film suggests or shows how apathy and built in or integral evil can triumph, even against hope. the film argues that people ignore the pervasive sins that occur in their daily lives, around them all the time, until they’re forced to confront them, often through extreme violence, highlighting that everyone, carries a capacity for evil.
