What a crap film that was. Saw it yesterday at a second run cinema for $3 and I still feel like they should have given me my money back.
Points of note include:

1) Why is the audience the only ones that notice the guy's face is obviously makeup?
2) Can Hollywood EVER stop using foreshadowing so blatently: "That's my dad's gun" etc etc...
3) Obviously the password section of authentication should be visible to anyone looking over your shoulder.
4) Morgan Freeman should be employed by the government, cracked a password first time, in 10 seconds.
5) The parents of the kidnapped child, Mr Mrs Cardboard.
6) Oh look, another twist. The Pathetic Twist (TM) Forte of many a bad script writer.


There are so many more things wrong with this film. Pathetic.

What did you think of se7en though? I personally didn't like it as much as Pitt's other films...most notably 12 monkeys

I loved Seven and 12 monkey's. Pitt is good although I find him limited sometimes, he always seems to be acting as himself, even in 12 Monkeys. I thought Willis was much better in that film.

Saw Meet Joe Black last night. Interesting for 30 minutes, but the film was 3 hrs long for some reason.

Se7en was unique. An effective psychological thriller. With the release of each copycat, I begin to like it more. I prefer Pitt's performance in Fight Club than in 12 monkeys.

I don't like Hollywood Endings, and Se7en definitely pissed me off. But it does win for not being a Hollywood ending.

The movie was a rip-off though. I saw the first movie (Kiss the Girls) with Morgan Freeman and Carey Yules, and liked it. I was greatly disappointed in Along Came a Spider. Defintely the password crack was what got me pissed off the most.

Hard to say what my favorite killer movie is though. Copy Cat was pretty good, but I think as far as those stories go, the TV-Movie the Ted Bundy story got me shaking the most. Undeniably EVIL, which is what those other movies were aiming for anyway.
