I had never seen the film before and was anxious to watch it as I had heard how scary it was. I thoroughly enjoyed the film as the concept was so clever as a murderer based his murders on the seven sins; Gluttony, Pride, Lust, Anger, Sloth, Wrath and Envy, hence the name of the film being Se7en. The film had me glued the whole way through as I was waiting for the next terrifying moment to occur.
I was really impressed with Brad Pitt in this film as he did not reform to his typical stereotype film role, Kevin Spacey really scared me in this film as he was so creepy!
During the film I took note of certain camera shots and angles that were used to create suspense and add to the horror/thriller genre of the film. Also I noticed the non-diagetic sounds used, this was very effective as it added to the drama and thrill of the film.
The film ending was excellent as the audience wonder where the murdered is taking the detectives and whether or not he will kill them. The murderer ends up killing Mills' wife, delivering her head to the desert, this being one of the sins Envy, the last sin to occur is Anger as Mills kills the murderer. This is a very controversial ending as the class debated whether or not he should have killed him. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed Se7en and would highly recommend it.
