"The Usual Suspects"(1995) with Kevin Spacey, Gabriel Byrne, Benicio Del Toro, Stephen Baldwin & Kevin Pollock was really good too 💯❤️🙂✔️
@@alfroml.a.5404 D.L. Just recommended that too!
I'm wondering if Gwyneth Paltrow is playing the Mastermind behind the murders, it's how I would have wrote it.
Another good thriller is prisoners if you ladies haven't seen that one yet
The actor who played the "lust" kill guy actually deprived himself of sleep to enhance his frantic behaviour in the interview scene. That is impressive dedication for your role, no matter how small. I hope he got more acting jobs after this film.
He was in Saving Private Ryan later. He has had a solid career as a character actor, his name is Leland Orser.
@fester2306 He played a surgeon in the latter seasons of ER too.
yeah he sold that scene or made it even more with his reaction. He was in The Bone Collector, Saving Private Ryan and Taken i believe amongst other films.
He also kept making himself hyperventilate in-between takes to the point of almost passing out several times...
"Mystic River" is a good detective thriller..Maybe a little lighter on the thriller part, but still a real good movie..Great acting!
Love that the woman with red hair was trying not to cry at the ending. Usually the reaction is confusion, disbelief and shock but this one is my favorite
Aww thank you!!
Watch her when she reaches for a drink, when she relates to Keven spacey speaking about being ugly on the inside.
And watch her delete this comment.
most david fincher movies can be considered psychological thrillers honestly. he likes setting a dark tone and mood in his movies
The year this was made was an EXTREMELY great year for Spacey. He was relatively unknown prior to 1995, and was in Seven, The Usual Suspects (another excellent thriller), and Outbreak. 3 very big movies that year, and IMO those films really lead him to his stardom that came afterwards. He followed those up in 1998 with The Negotiator, where he gives an outstanding performance (the film also stars Samuel L Jackson) and is also worth checking out.
His most eclectic film is "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" based on the true crime thriller of the same name. It's definitely worth a watch and a review. One of his first roles was in the TV series Wiseguy in 1988, where he played a crooked arms dealer named Mel Profit and was paired with B-movie queen Joan Severance. Another great role was in 1997's LA Confidential. Just so many great roles for Spacey.
and then in American Beauty he basically played himself.
The negotiatior is underrated.
kevin spacey was on a roll in the 90's ..glengary glen ross, the ref, swimming with sharks, the usual suspects, the negotiatior, outbreak, se7en, a time to kill, L.A. confidentIal, A bug's life, American beauty ..the man could do no wrong though the great 90's era of flicks
Yeah, and then he just had to touch... you know.
David Fincher had to fight for that ending. The studio thought it was too dark and somber. Thank god David Fincher got what he wanted.
Also, the only murder shown is the detective murdering the suspect, yet it's one of the most disturbing crime thrillers ever. David Fincher is a genius.
The producer of Se7en scolded Fincher, telling him he could have made another Lethal Weapon but he made a Swedish art house film instead. I think it was the producers biggest hit.
This one made Fincher. Oft-imitated throughout the nineties. Sometimes duplicated, but then they are only duplicates. You only shock like this once.
AMEN
The planets aligned with this one, everything came together, the right cast, the right script, the right director. Indeed Se7en was duplicated and ripped off many times, will never be equaled.
As has been seen over the past couple years studios don't know shit about making a good movie.
It wasn't a clock at the beginning but a metronome. I used one to keep rhythm while learning to play piano. I always assumed Somerset was using it to help him stay centered against all the chaotic city noise and stress from the job. Matching the rhythm of the metronome to his heart rate and breathing to stay centered and calm.
The twists and turns this movie went on, the suspense, the epic ending....mercy! I watched it when it first come out in college and i had to go see it again just to make sure I saw what I saw! Always a delight to hear your reactions! God bless ya'll!
Thank you!! God bless!
Always fun to watch reactions to Se7en, especially the ending
"He's really selling it"
That's character actor Leland Orser. He crushes his one scene as the Lust 'survivor'. We only get a few flashes of the murder, and the horror of it is entirely from the Polaroid of the harness and Leland's testimony. Absolutely chilling.
I always enjoy seeing Leland pop up because he is always fantastic. For one of his larger roles - Very Bad Things, with Jon Favreau and Christian Slater
instead of 5, I'd give 7 stars for the best uncredited villain ever! and Somerset represents the 7 heavenly virtues in one person! 👏👏👏
for more David Fincher crime thrillers, check out Zodiac (2007), it's based on a true story!
I think you two are so cute watching these drama thrillers. Love your take. It really drew you in. How can this one not, right?
"What's in the box?"
Fun Fact: When filming the "sloth" victim scene, the SWAT officers were NOT told that the victim was still alive. When the victim coughs and scares the SWAT officers, that reaction is real.
Location Location Fact: The diner that Somerset (Morgan Freeman) and Tracy (Gwyneth Paltrow) meet at is the same diner that Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke meet at in Training Day (2001). In fact, they meet in the same booth. It's the Quality Coffee Shop in downtown LA.
Standing Together Fact: The ending in the movie is the ending in the original draft of the screenplay that the actors and director had signed on to. Producer Arnold Kopelson had it re-written, and the ending was changed to John Doe (Kevin Spacey) kidnapping Tracy (Gwyneth Paltrow), with Mills and Somerset racing to save her life. When David Fincher, Brad Pitt, and Morgan Freeman read the new ending, they all demanded that the original ending be put back in or they wouldn't do the movie.
Art Over Ego Fact: The producers intended that Kevin Spacey should receive top billing at the start of the movie, but he insisted that his name not appear in the opening credits, so as to surprise the audience with the identity of the killer. To compensate, he is listed twice in the closing credits, once before the credits start rolling and once in the rolling credits in order of appearance. Another advantage from Spacey's point of view, as he saw it, was that he was excluded from the film's marketing during its release, meaning he didn't have to make any public appearances or do any interviews.
The cinematography and music is epic!
Masterpiece ever. Great
Fantastic movie!
I still remember watching this in the theater in 95, It was dead quiet the whole movie, people were on the edge of their seat. There was a massive audible gasp at the end when Spacey's character revealed that he killed his wife, I was 14 at the time and it was a movie I never forgot.
I saw it opening weekend, it was dead quiet at the end and I remembered a couple walking out of the theater, guy had his arms around his girlfriend, her head was down and she was crying.
@@konowd damn that’s sad, poor girl was probably shaken.
A lot of people were disturbed by Se7en when it came out
That wasn't a clock... It's called a metronome. A metronome is a device that produces a steady pulse to help musicians play in time. Somerset uses it to help him sleep (background noise). :)
Because of that dismal ending, I was only able to watch this once. Same story with The Mist. (Should've stopped after the novella)
And that's why Wrath was left last and some say the most evil sin since so few wouldn't have pulled the trigger.
Though not mentioned, I can't help but think that John Doe also had to kill David and Tracy's dogs 😭 They never would have let him hurt their mama without a fight...
“This ain’t even my desk.”
I remember watching this movie, cops was chasing a killer, but I remember the box at the end, what was in it📽️🎭🍿
The ending segment actually had a few scenes cut that showed Gwyneth Paltrows head in the box.. but Fincher couldnt ram it through without screwing with the Ratings - so they cut them.
Funny thing is.. the studio kept the head - and later it would appear in the movie 'Contagion' .. also starring Gwyneth Paltrow (albeit in a somewhat minor role).
Showing the head would have weakened the movie. They also shot an altenate ending where Freeman sacrifices himself and shoots Spacey before Pitt can do it, also a weaker ending. The one we eventually ended up with was the right one, but damn, it was a tough one.
Fun Fact: the city is never named. Fan theory goes that the film takes place in Gotham City.
It’s amazing how calm you were while watching this!!! I’m impressed as I’m a freak show during thrillers like this! HAHA!!!
The rain, shadows and dark scenes are common tropes of film noir. The style dates back to the 30's and 40's of classic Hollywood.
Definitely sets the tone:)
watch the crow 1994
Excellent reaction, ladies! My favorite David Fincher movie. Also check out Prisoners (Denis Villenueve and Insomnia (Chris Nolan).
Good reaction ladies. Flawless movie in pretty much every regard.
Thank you!!
If you lower the camera a tad, so your heads are touching the top of the frame, you could make the image a bit larger 👍
My absolute favorite
I didn't see the head in the box but i thought it was totally crushing revelation, a genius move for the killer but total psychological mind screw
I watched it a billion time since it's day view
Trust me, train sounds are something you can get used to. Our summer house is by the train tracks and trains go by day and night. First night you might wake up to them, but after that you are so used to it, you will sleep like a log. That is because your brain does not register that as a sound of a danger, so it gets filtered.
I’m enjoying your channel. Been binging some to catch up. I just found you by UA-cam recommending it.
Awesome! Thank you!
The world is definitely not a fine place but it’s definitely worth fighting for.
Great reaction ladies! This is my second all time favorite movie.
Thank you!!
You girls are 🔥🔥
More great thriller ideas are:
Sleeping With the Enemy
Prisoners
Nothing But the Truth (2008)
Malice
No Way Out (1987)
Kiss the Girls
A scene I thought was crucial as to the theme of the movie is the famous bar scene between Freeman and Pitt when they talk about people's apathy in the world. Such a fantastic scene. I've seen this movie dozens of times and every time it hits me with a punch in the gut, it's so powerful and everyone in it is so stellar. I really enjoyed your reactions. I also think Howards Shore's music in this one is so epic.
I don't mind if one of you has seen the movie before. My favorite Kevin Spacey movie, if at least one of you hasn't seen it and you'd be interested, is "K-Pax". Very interesting movie. : )
This movie rates high on my list too. You ladies give good movie reviews too, which is why I come here often, to see what you have to say. : )
2:33 I never mind looking at Natalie :-)
If there was ever a case for temp insanity this would have been it.
Next movies: North by Northwest and Notorious.
Our next couple are ready to go but will look into these!
Saying you might want to invest in an umbrella to a guy carrying 2 coffee cups ? 😁
Michelle, another movie you 2 should watch is “Copycat” with Sigourney Weaver and Holly Hunter
Haven’t heard of it!
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment Signorney Weaver plays a doctor/author who studies serial killers and Holly Hunter plays a detective and they have to take down a murderer who copies other serial killers from the past. It’s an interesting thriller, so I’d recommend it
Just glad it was her head in the box and not one of her candles.
Kevin Spacey specifically had it in his deal that he have no credit until the end of the film and you couldn’t use his image in the ads. Brad Pitt also had it in his deal the ending couldn’t be changed.
Gwyneth and Brad were actually dating at the time.
I hear he had to convince her to do it.
Also, when Brad is chasing the the suspect in the stairwell and falls in the garage in the alley.
Brad actually either cut his arm open pretty bad or broke it in the fall. Thats why he has a cast the rest of the movie.
I did wonder. I couldn't figure out how the hit we saw in the rainy alley caused him to need a cast.
You guys laughed more at this movie than anyone else I've ever seen...
We laugh. We also were on the edge of our seat and Natalie cried. It’s all good:)
33:00. It use to rain downpour in New York City, like violently regularly. NYC was a record for downpour up until a decade ago.
Great Reaction! 🏆🖒
Seven really was a great movie, that stood the test of time, and remember watching it on VHS 📼
More movies.. | Kiss the Girls (1997) | The Craft (1996) | Fear (1996) | The Good Son (1993) | The Hand That Rocks The Cradle (1992) |
You talked over the best reveal when John doe said, "Oh...he didn't know..."
Se7en is one of those movies that makes people go "You've never seen...?!" If you've not seen it.
the more i watch "seven" the more i like the movie !!!!!!! great cinema !!!!! today the most movies are so bad !!!!!!
John Doe - another example of a worshipper of the forces of darkness that ended up benefitting him. Of course, in his mind, he thought he was a force of light...
I don’t really consider getting your brains blown out as a benefit. Regarding the latter, he wasn’t. He was evil.
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment Ahh but being a martyr ("getting his brains blown out") was always a part of his plan and his plan came to fruition. Even Det. Somerset told Mills: "David, if you kill him (John Doe), he will win". And David Mills killed him. John Doe won. He anticipated the reaction, prepared for it and accepted it.
And of course John Doe was evil. But in his own mind, he was doing the Lord's work. That's why he was able to commit his atrocious acts on his victims. He is attempting to teach the masses through his example. That's why he becomes angrily disgusted when Det. Mills suggests that his victims are innocent and proceeds to explain his reasoning why they are not. Det. Somerset also calls him out on his contradiction of enjoying his own sinful acts (murder, torture) and I'm sure John Doe condones these acts by knowing he will ultimately pay for his own sins through his future martyrdom. As Blaise Pascal once said: "Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction."...
@@crossbones13 he might have got what he wanted but he definitely didn’t win or prosper:)
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment Det. Mills definitely didn't win or prosper. He lost his wife, his unborn child, his career and his mental well-being in this situation. He will spend the rest of life institutionalized (either in prison for shooting an unarmed prisoner or in a mental hospital). That's not what "winning" looks like to me.
John Doe's victory was an ideological one. He didn't need to prosper (it was already established that he was independently wealthy) from his machinations. Formulating an elaborate plan, devising a complex strategy, anticipating and manipulating the actions of your enemies and achieving all your objectives seems like the textbook definition of a "win" to me...
I was 5 years old when this came out and it was the first R Rated Horror Thriller film I saw in theaters! My brother and sister took me to go see it!
It has one of the most shocking twist endings in film history!
i hope your joking about being 5
@@richardwilliams6256 it was normal back then
@@richardwilliams6256 I wish I Was! Lol!
@@ragdajit definitely was not normal back then. Sure, it might have been more likely to happen but definitely not normal
@@ragdaj Seeing a movie like this is not normal being 5 years old, at any time.
Thanks ladies.
“Not full blown horror” oh just wait!
I was a fragile 23 year old. This movie traumatized me back then seeing in the theater.
Oh yeah. You were “too little” to have seen this. Thanks! LOL. 😞😤🤓😂
Kevin Spacey has a thing for playing Villain Characters and does it quite well i also hated him in "A Time To Kill"(1996) but respect how good of an actor he is,despite the scandals,great reaction you 2
Legendary movie 🎬 🎞 🎥
Jeez, just realized this movie is nearly 30 years old! Crazy...
Saw it opening weekend. Oh shit, I’m old!
Very good movie. Now that we know what Kevin Spacey is really like, it's not hard to see him as a twisted killer. Morgan Freeman as Natalie said is always solid in every movie. And Brad Pitt, looks notwithstanding, did a great acting job too.
It definitely had an Alfred Hitchcock feel to it the way it was shot and edited. very suspenseful.
Nice to know that a person can be found innocent in a court of law but doesn't compare to court of opinion.
Spacey had a great year! This and Usual Suspects! This director, like Kubrick Cronenburg Sonnenfeld Fincher Lynch, just see movies, differently!
O yeah it's like the 7 deadly... I had a bad copy. didn't get much out of it 👍🇺🇸💪
Six shooter is alright, I only need one
Nice choice ladies. As you said it would have been a hard choice for Brad not to pull the trigger. I didn't know that one of my favorite actors (may he RIP, buried at Arlington Cemetery), Gunnery Sergeant R. Lee Ermey (he was the detective boss) was in this movie. He went into acting once retiring from the Marine Corps. Spacey has always been creepy good ever since I saw him as Mel Profitt (criminal boss) in the TV Show Wiseguy. Oh, I also saw The Shift, thanks again, I was able to use your link. Truly a story of belief without evidence (faith) for the lead character who wins in the end. Neal McDonough always plays a good villain.
Glad to hear!!
If you want to watch some good Halloween films, check out two oldies but goodies, Mr. Boogedy and Bride of Boogedy, from 1986 when Disney was still pumping good family fare. My kids loved these films and they are now 42 and 38 and the grandkids loved them when they were small.
This was great...Another Great movie you Ladies should check out is - THE LIFE OF DAVID GALE ( 2003 drama / thriller ) Kate Winslet, Kevin Spacey, Rhona Mitra, Laura Linney and an appearance by Melissa Mc Carthy... You'll be Intrigued
Good movie, we all seen movies, so don't pay attention to other people 👍😎👌
When I saw this film 🎥 for the first time, I felt depressed 😞 and I have not seen it since.
Amazing movie. Most people don't realize how good the "world building" is because it's so immersive, it sucks you in and you don't notice it. Next time you watch it, pay attention to the sound design. You'll see what I mean, it's so filled out everywhere. Makes the setting feel real.
And, thank goodness for jury nullification. No chance you get 12 people to convict.
I’m not sure how giving the movie a 5/5 meant we didn’t appreciate that.
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment durr
@@st0n3p0ny Hope you enjoyed the reaction! We enjoyed the movie!
fun fact, he really broke his arm.
.. 5/5
Lol. Metronome, not a clock.😉
Great react! Watch Brad in Kalifornia, he's not so yummy in that one, lol. But he's good!
Thanks!
A cinematic masterpiece and Neo Noir Psychological Thriller at its best. This movie was one of the msin inspirations for The Batman.
A very interesting dark thriller by David Fincher, I like this movie! Now this can hardly be removed and no one will succeed. Girls, you are beautiful as always, you are the best)
Thank you!!
Now you see where such a huge inspiration for The Batman (2022) came from.
One of my favourite movies
It’s excellent!
19:39. Hilarious!😆
Quick question, is that a Drunk 3-PO AKA Jay Canadian Bear Plushie from Friday Night Tights on that top shelf behind y'all?
Yes:)
Natalie, I only needed to see this once..Made that strong of a spooky imprint, didn't want to watch it again. One thing about Spacey, whether in "Usual Suspects" , this , or his creepy Lex Luthor in "Superman Returns" the dude's played some psychotic mo-fos! 24:05..I think the Lawyer's bluffing, or overconfident...NO jury would let that lunatic walk or buy an insanity plea, considering the careful planning he did to pull off his killing spree.
Salut from Cannes. The french title of that movie is " Seven" 🙂. Bye tout le monde.
Try crimson rivers 2020, it’s a fantastic movie too
The Alien and Saw franchises are my two favorite scary movie series 😎
There was an extremely quick, (almost subliminal), flash of Tracy's face just before David shoots John Doe. I didn't see this movie in the theater but I don't remember that being there when I first saw it on cable. Is that something added in on a 'director's cut' version? Does anyone know?
Not sure
This is the 25th frame created by another Brad Pitt character, Tyler Durden, when he worked as a projectionist. When he showed a big dick in the cinema.
Nat 🌹❤
❤️
Seven is a classic psychological/thriller/horror movie 🎥 that definitely holds up all these years. It’s too bad we don’t get movies like these nowadays 😕
It was great watching you guys react to this. I try not to miss any of your videos whenever one comes out and will be waiting for the next one to come out.
C-ya guys on the livestream today. I hope it’s today???
Can you both react to The Machinist please?
Thank you.
I was lucky enough to see this when it first came out. I was blown away by that final scene. I remember people in the theater gasping when you realized what was happening.
I love how we go from the bad guy being in custody, out in the desert with multiple guns pointed at him and suddenly Morgan Freeman's character says "John Doe has the upper hand!". Oh, so good!
I totally agree with the comment that the city feels like Gotham. I never noticed that before but you are 100% right. It feels more like Gotham than almost any Batman movie in the past 20 years.
Thanks for sharing!!
Good movie 🎉
I've always had mixed feelings on this movie. There are great things in it, but the things I don't like about it outweigh them. I know just about any good or great movie could be nitpicked to death, but I've always thought it would have been more believable if Mills had started beating the hell out of Doe at the end instead of giving him an easy death. Also, someone as smart as Somerset (or even Mills or someone else in the pd) would have wondered that, hey, this guy went out of his way to take pictures of us and must have done so for a reason. Perhaps we and those around us (like a wife) might need extra protection.
@anrun, I get where you're coming from but I do believe it's more than plausible that cops and detectives like most regular people can't see the forest for the trees.
@@thegladve Sure, smart people miss things and do dumb things. It isn't an egregious flaw, but it has always stuck with me.
@@anrun it stuck with me also however I don't think Fincher tried to emulate what Michael Mann does expertly which gives us technicalities with extra care and attention to procedure, but rather a mood piece with two very flawed individuals who try to rise above their said flaws with one succeeding and one failing.
The thirst is funny. ( your only human ladies) brad pitt
As soon as Morgan Freeman opened the box and radioed Spacey has the advantage, I guessed it had to be his wife.
Not a thriller. But another movie you should check out is A Knight's Tale. It's fun.
Use to watch that all the time!
You can tell it took some inspiration from Exorcist 3.
A really good thriller you should check out is Primal Fear.
ha... umbrella dont mean sh#t when you live in a windy city as well as a rainy one!
That can definitely be true
You are not the first reactors to wonder if it's called seven because it's his last 7 days.🤣
We figured it out:)
@ForceOfLightEntertainment I noticed. That's why I didn't explain why it wasn't the seven days.😉
I love watching you beautiful ladies react to movies. Keep up the great reactions.😁
Technically Spacey being in the movie is a spoiler. He wasn't in any of the trailers or the advertising.
