  Why send me a DVD on the features of the film Seven, if the reason i added the DVD to my list, is because i have not viewed the film before! If people want to ... read more »

  Disturbing film...
  
  Very disturbing and graphic... not for the fainthearted. However, great cast and well acted... gross ending and it gave me nightmares!

  Worth watching
  
  Well written. I enjoyed the film, though it might be just me but i felt it was a little predictable. Pitt and Freeman both were excellent in the film.

  I Really don't know what else to say, Fincher just got it right.
  
  On the surface this is just another cliched crime thriller, but in its roots it is way more than you'll first think.

  bonus disc is total waste of time
  
  The bonus disc carries little information about the title and is not worth watching. Should not be sent out as a rental.

  A cliche filled non-entity.......
  
  My expectations of this film were not met by half, instead of calculating thrilling narrative to force the horror upon us it seemed to be rather patronising.... read more »
