Se7en (1995)

Se7en

Se7en (1995) is a dark, relentlessly tense crime drama directed by David Fincher. Two homicide detectives — the weary, methodical veteran William Somerset (Morgan Freeman) and the impulsive, idealistic newcomer David Mills (Brad Pitt) — hunt a sadistic serial killer (Kevin Spacey) who stages each murder as a grotesque moral lesson tied to one of the Seven Deadly Sins. The film unfolds like a grim procedural, moving from one shocking crime scene to the next as the detectives piece together the killer’s twisted logic and motives. Watching Se7en is an immersive, unsettling experience: oppressive, rain-soaked cinematography and moody noir lighting create constant dread; violent, disturbing imagery and meticulous forensic detail heighten suspense; and the moral and psychological stakes steadily escalate toward a devastating, unforgettable climax. Strong performances, a claustrophobic atmosphere, and bleak moral questions about judgment and culpability make Se7en gripping and thought-provoking — but also intense and not for the faint of heart.
