Se7en

Se7en is a mystery psychological thriller that sends chills down your spine every minute. You move the edge of the seat at every instance, and in the end, you fall off it, as one cannot stand the sheer pain during the climax. The entire film depicts how the human mind has become used to corruption and crime, how people don't care about injustice, and how everyone has stopped empathizing with each other's problems. The movie is primarily based on the seven sins. It involves Pride, Greed, Gluttony, Wrath, Sloth, Lust, and Envy. These deadly sins have become a part of this generation's life. 

Two detectives come across a disastrous case of serial murders. While one officer named Lt. William Somerset, has years of experience, David Mills was recently transferred to another branch with his wife. The two stumble upon cruel murders, each leaving a clue of the six deadly sins. The murderer, John Doe, was depicted as extremely clever, leaving only clues he wanted the detectives to see. No fingerprints, no alibi, nothing. The only thing they discovered was that all the victims were involved in some kind of sin. The two officers were close to catching him, but he managed to slip away.

Whilst their investigation, William and David's wives conversed about moving to a new place. Also, she let the senior detective in on a little secret. She was pregnant, but David was still unaware of it as she didn't want him to think about anything.

Shockingly, after six crimes, he surrenders himself. The only sin he had left was wrath, which means anger. He was interrogated, but the detectives didn't get clear answers. However, he talked about how the entire world is full of corruption and everyone plays a part in it. 

During the climax, John Doe lures the two officers into taking him to a strange place, and also forces them to believe that no police officers will follow them. Just three of them, weighing for an unknown package. Initially, David wanted to kill the Doe, but that would mean following in his footsteps. He stood by his ethics and controlled himself despite being provoked by him.

As the package arrived, Somerset opened it far away as David and John stood together. The senior detective was too shocked to speak and instantly ran to take away the gun from David's head as he was worried he might do anything irrational. Then came the infamous Brad Pitt dialogue, "What's In The Box!" As William stood still, Mills realized that the box had his wife's head. A few moments later, John reveals that there was a baby on the way. 

Brad Pitt delivered an incredible performance. He realized, he grieved, he accepted, and lastly, he killed John Doe. While the murderer died, he actually won, as he successfully demonstrated the final act of wrath. David Mills couldn't control his anger. In the end, he is arrested for murder.
