Everything Wrong With Se7en In 18 Minutes Or Less 

The first rule of Se7en is we do not ask what's in the box.

"Somebody call somebody." One of the greatest film lines ever!

The way he screams "deteectiiiiiive!" always goes under my skin

The sloth scene is the scariest thing I've ever seen in a movie. I absolutely hate and respect the hell out of it.

Let's consider the fact that cinemasins just removed 7 sins in the end FOR NARRATION

I'm fairly certain that everyone that writes a journal hopes that one day it will be read in the voice of Morgan Freeman.

i’ve never realised until now, but at the opening credits, the scene where he’s crossing out words from a book about ‘pregnancy and sense of smell’, it’s hinting towards the ending of the film. it’s obviously the murderer plotting the murder of brad pitt’s wife, the PREGNANT woman. it’s insane how smart this movie is.

5:32 Morgan Freeman laughing is something we need more of

The "realizing the Sloth victim is alive" scene is probably the best in this movie, since none of the other actors involved in the scene (including John McGinley) was informed that the actor playing Sloth was supposed to have him take a surprise breath.

According to my law degree as a criminal lawyer from Criminal Minds University, the biggest sin of all is that as soon as the murders were noted as the work of a serial killer, they did not call in the FBI *at all*.

The scene that really stood out to me when I watched it(apart from the ending of course) was the part where Paltrow tells Freeman that she's having a baby, and he says something like 'you spoil that kid', because the world is so awful and a child doesn't need to be exposed to that when they're a child...and Paltrow bursts into tears of gratitude/fear/sadness/confusion. That's an intense scene of astonishing acting.

If you listen closely, Sommerset tells Mills “if you kill a suspect, that’s death row all the way.” So David would be killed for Wrath.

I'd remove 5 sins for that "DETECTIIIIIVVEEE!!!?"

You gave Se7en 77 sins? You did this on purpose you cheeky buggers.

2 things. 1, that sloth scene is one of the best scenes in movie history, and the scene after is amazing too. The doctor says “he would die of shock if you were to shine a flashlight in his eyes.” Amazing. And 2, the lust scene. He doesn’t go into it much but it’s so real, so haunting. The details are so gruesome and terrifying. Definitely the best movie I’ve seen.

I you told me this time last year that I would live through a pandemic that shuts down the world and that I would watch a cinemaSins video where he removes a sin for opening credits I would believe the former before the latter.

John Doe intentionally missed Mills on two occasions where he could have killed him because he was grooming Mills to become Wrath.

I am someone who has seen all the saw movies without batting an eye. The sloth scene literally made me jump out of my chair. The build up...man ...modern horror movies should learn from this. Deserved it's 5 sins off

I’m no cinematic scholar, but the fact that it was dark, wet, and dreary, during the vast majority of the movie says that the city and the shit going on within it is a shitty, filthy cesspool. The sun shine’s brightly in the final scene, which, to me, seems to represent that this darkness and dreariness is all about to be gone once Doe is blasted. In fact, it’s 7:01 during the box scene, another indicator that the 7 deadly sin murders are about to come to a close. There’s also a clear dichotomy going on between Mills and Somerset. Somerset, the pessimist, is trying to ascend his way out of hell or purgatory (the city and crime), while Mills, the naive optimist, unwittingly wants to descend into it (he specifically transferred into the city). Mills has a positive view on life and his work, yet he ends up being the one who succumbs to the final deadly sin of wrath, which completes Doe’s masterpiece. A cruel irony.

Classic film. Know what’s mind blowing? When ppl think Seven. They think violent and gory. It’s none of those. Hardly any violence. No gore if any in the film. It ALL TAKES PLACE IN YOUR HEAD. That’s perfect film making. Great video BTW.

4:31 am I the only one who saw that dude hit the most fire dab ever

Removes a sin for the opening credits. Adds two sins for the opening credits.

My favorite line in this movie - "This is not even my desk"

One of my favorite movies; the atmosphere and tension is so palpable in it.

You should have sinned the fact that it is spelled se7en. Sesevenen

You can only watch it for the first time once. Ding.

The thing that got me was when Doe says they're heading for the high tension wires. My first thought was "there's no way a helicopter could land there". Knew some shit was about to go down.

Coming up: "Everything wrong with Everything wrong with Se7en"

the way Kevin Spacey screams, "DETECTIIIIIIVE" at 13:38 is one of the best moments in film history

I'm sorry, but it's 100% adorable when he genuinely likes something and takes sins off so gleefully

It’s crazy and frustrating how many viewers don’t understand that Jeremy and his co creators are huge film buffs, and while they sin many legitimate parts (and non legitimate parts) of a movie, at its core, this channel is a celebration of moviedom... the good and the bad. Thanks for so many great years of this channel.

Just noticed a some what I think is foreshadowing at 3:00 the blond lady in a box shaped frame

i like to read the name of this movie as "sesevenen" *ding*

Sins in a movie about sins

I was hoping you'd mention during "sloth" that the doctor says he'd die of shock if he shined a flashlight into his eyes when 5 minutes ago the cops did exactly that.

1:44 you have to remove a sin for the effort they made to sync the windshield-wipers in both camera-angles (watch the bonus features - they actually did that!)

you forgot the part when John Doe just walks into the police station drenched in blood and no one notices until he calls out to Mills.

This was one interesting Kevin Spacey documentary.

“What’s in the box?!!” Brad Pitt’s finest performance. I’ve seen this movie 100 times and it gets me every time

Se7en is one of my favorite movies. I was curious what CinemaSins would with this movie. Final verdict, well done!

13:50 To be fair, a police station is the one place you'd absolutely take a man covered in blood, no questions asked.

"Somebody call somebody!" - Something everyone wants to hear from a cop.

You didn't point out one of my favorite mistakes in this movie. The scene where Mills and Somerset are driving down the road, talking about something-or-other. It is POURING rain on Mills' side of the windshield, wipers trying in vain to keep up with the downfall. Camera changes to Somerset for his next line and his windshield is ALMOST spotless.

In the sloth scene everybody thought it was a prosthetic human but it’s actual actor and that reaction is %1000 genuine! 😂

How dare you mess with Se7en! Seems almost ... Sinful.

Given you took a sin off for the opening credits because they were revolutionary at the time, you should have also removed a sin for the surprise "Kevin Spacey is the killer" when he showed up in the lobby. It was a complete surprise at the time; he wasn't in any marketing stuff, his name wasn't released as being part of the cast, he wasn't seen earlier in the movie. I can't think of any other movie where the main bad guy has a checklist like that to his name. Usually they have second billing on all of the posters. But that would mean the total tally wasn't 77 sins anymore.

The dinner scene with Pitt,Gwyneth Paltrow and Morgan Freeman just totally reminded me of the dinner scene in Jaws with Hooper,chief Brody and Brodys wife.

"God is dead and no one cares" This dude literally mentioned Nine Inch Nails, who were the intro song to this movie. Yet nobody here cared to notice. I am severely disappointed.

"Constant rain for 7 days and no flooding" - I take it you've never been to Scotland

Seven = 7 with 77 Sins.. Uploaded on 17 Oct 2017 .. Am I overthinking this ?

I love how you say John Doe wrote his diary as though he imagined it would be read aloud by Morgan Freeman. Hell, I write my grocery list with the hopes that it will one day be read aloud by Morgan Freeman.

I just love watching these. I could watch them all day. Thank you for Cinemasins!!!!

*Whats In The Box?!*

I don't know man...that playing Bach in the library was a pretty smooth move...I would have taken a sin off.

“Is the mix of air fresheners really more appealing than a rotting body?” Good lord yes, yes it is.

it says a lot of a movie when even a nitpick like him can't find more than 80 sins in more than 15 min. hell of a movie

Saw this movie opening night and that cough scene with Sloth had everyone in the theater flinch. Nobody saw that coming. And to have this and Usual Suspects open the same week? Man, the 90's were the greatest.

I only just noticed this but the original sin counter is back

I can feel my skin crawl just watching a sins vid for this movie. A true work of art.

Before I finish this video I just want to say…”WHAT’S IN THE BOX?!!”

Somebody call somebody!!!

10:36 Filming that rain-chase Pitt slipped and went THROUGH a windshield, severely cutting his arm/hand. That's why he has it in a cast for the scenes after this one. Since the movie was not shot chronologically, they had to find ways to hide his injury in scenes taking place earlier. Think about that the next time you watch the movie, there's a ton of stuff concealing one of his hands in various scenes.

When this was released, it was a creative decision to put one of NIN's more explicit songs in the beginning credits. Now, Trent and his friend Atticus are doing music soundtracks left and right, including for a DISNEY/PIXAR film.

This is not only the greatest horror movie ever, but also one of the greatest movie's ever! It doesn't rely on anything that makes the killer seem supernatural, there is almost no violence, it's just the sheer thought of such a gruesome killer & the nerve shredding atmosphere. The great foreboding and never knowing what's going to be next! I love the scene where Somerset & Mills are conducting separate interviews & you can tell something truly horrific has happened that has appalled both of them but the reveal of a single photo or a brutal torture device. Nothing else is needed! The mind can comprehend of how anyone could conceive of using such an apparatus on a poor victim. A situation where you don't want to die but the alternative would be, for most compassionate people, beyond consideration. The cast is perfect too! And I'll always wonder what Mills is going to tell Somerset whilst shaving his chest before the ride along with 'Jon Doe'. Credit has to go to Kevin Spacey too. For an actor who is normally genial & charming to make you feel revulsion is incredible.

John Doe changed parts of his plan around Mills- Everything in the first half of this movie implied he wasn't planning to be caught until he realized his envy of Mills' life, and came up with a two birds, one stone alternate ending to his plan, which also explains why his crimes seemed so much more improvised after the lust victim. Cinema Sins gets a sin for not realizing this, despite that it was exposited.

I think John Doe's character always planned to murder the wife or child of one the police officers investigating him. It just so happens that Brad Pitt's character was a hothead, but it's not hard to imagine that pretty much any cop would react the same way if they saw the head of one of their loved ones in a box, Especially the way John Doe had been taunting them. That's a very real very human response to such a traumatic experience. That's why John Doe was following them so closely. He would have done the same thing regardless of which detectives were investigating the case.

My fave creepy line is when Doe is in the backseat and says something like "you can't just tap someone on the shoulder to get their attention anymore. You have to hit them with a sludge hammer, then you'll notice you have their full attention." How it's delivered, oof it always creeps me the f out

I like how Kevin Spacey get sketched in both Seven and the usual suspe ts

I hate pop culture for making me notice a dab at 4:30

When I heard Morgan freeman laugh I immediately was like "he's gonna remove a sin for Morgan freeman being so likable"

I absolutely love cinema sins and also love when you credit fabulous movies

The rain, atmosphere, mood, darkness, depression, Brad's acting....put my head in a box pls.

When that sin was taken off at 15:13 Cinema Sins officially stole my heart.... Amazing job guys

This movie only has 7 sins; Gluttony, Greed, Envy, Lust, Sloth, Pride, and Wrath

Patrick Stewart made me laugh. I love watching your videos man. They make me feel all warm inside.

After viewing about 100 of these, i now hit the "like" button before the intro is over. No regrets.

Se7en is an absolute masterpiece!! Look up the definition of "unhappy ending" and you'll see a reference to his movie

5:33 CinemaSins: "Goddamn I love this cast" Kevin Spacey:

Blues Brorhers “Hut, hut, hut hut” at the end. Brilliant

I love your videos man and that nine inch nails lyric you quoted was legit lol

"This unknown city, Los New Angelyork..." XD

Fun fact: That ACTUALLY IS Kevin Spacey taking that photograph of Mills, but you never notice it at the first time.

"This doctor is on his last week of work" hahaahaha brilliant. made me literally laugh out loud

Can’t stop watching these

The Sloth scene genuinely gave me nightmares.

CinemaSins on a movie about sins? This is some Sinception shit.

The revelation of Sloth deserves every single sin removed

Love your channel can't stop laughing

You are forgetting john doe said in the movie be was changing his plan because they found him so quick and realized he was envy and killing mills wife would turn him into wrath.

Se7en gets 77 sins. I see what you did there. You had to be extraordinarily nitpicky with this one to get more than a dozen actual sins. The only inescapable one: the keep out sign on the inside!

17:44 "Finally, Monsieur... a wafer-thin mint" - " Nahhh f**k off, I'm full" LMAO

The lust scene was the most disturbing for me 😬😥

Se7en was the first DVD I bought. Also, the two TVs are part of the style of symmetry. Look at the desk right after that scene, it has two weird ball things on it.

still my favorite movie of all time, the amount of fun facts and Easter eggs in the movie is mind blowing. a fun fact that ive always loved was that kevin spacey purposely stayed off the credits until the end even going so far as to excuse himself from press junkets at they were promoting the movie so that the reveal of john doe would be that much more impactful. its also the reason why he is first billing in the after the movie credits.

Absolutely one of my favorite movies ever made

Poor old Sloth victim has been through so much pain and suffering hes grown an extra left arm....

How do u even pronounce that title? Sesevenven?

I'd like to think a good way of John Doe representing Envy would be if he wasn't envious of the detective in particular, but rather the masses that he looks down on as a whole, the ones who tolerate the sins of daily life. This way, he would *want* to be ignorant, he would wish that his circumstances could just differ in the slightest so that he wouldn't be plagued with the contempt that drove him to murder. He wants to be like everyone else, no matter how much he is disgusted by them.

15:18 Kevin Spacey telling on himself

“He still has hell to look forward to” man I love that line
