Jay Carr Boston Globe When Seven, with its velvety world of bottomless evil, taps you on the shoulder, your instinct will be to dive under the theater seat. Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Michael H. Price Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com I wouldn't go so far as to call David Fincher's Seven the most terrifying film ever, but it's right up there on the top shelf with Psycho and The Silence of the Lambs. Rated: 4.5/5 Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Gene Siskel Chicago Tribune The results of the killings are needlessly grotesque and don't really serve the smart screenplay by Andrew Kevin Walker and the artful direction of David Fincher. All of this talent is worth seeing if you can look past the gruesome details. Rated: 3/4 Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Joe Lipsett Horror Queers Podcast A stone cold classic, especially from a technical point of view. It's incredibly moody, cements a number of tropes for serial killer/crime texts, and (despite the presence of Spacey), John Doe and that finale are iconic. Rated: 4.5/5 Jul 23, 2024 Full Review John Scalzi Fresno Bee Seven doesn't take you to hell and back; it takes you to hell and keeps you there, looking around and wondering how it had come to this. Rated: A- Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Quentin Curtis Independent on Sunday There is no denying that Seven is a deeply unpleasant movie. But I believe it is a fine one, too. It doesn't glory in its depravity, but keeps a distance from it. Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
