I’m not sure but I felt like The Game actually messed me up more than this one… or maybe as a result I’m now broken 😂 full length reaction can be found here:

Possibly the greatest thriller of the 90s. It is SO well written and directed and paced. When this came out, it blew just about everybody away. It became an instant classic (IMO).
This movie literally changed the standard of how crime thrillers are done. Anything gritty and dark in the latter half of the 90s owes something to Se7en.
20:06 The jump scare was funny, but the transition from the “we could sneak in” grin to disappointed mom face was the best lol
😂 😂
@@NiaMakiReactsbtw sneaking in would still make any evidence inadmissable in a case
“Something about her is off.” Umm, that would be her head.
I literally read that, put my phone down… walked to the window, and sipped my coffee for a minute before coming back. LAWD!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😂
Jesus Christus
@@NiaMakiReacts 😂
As far as we know, this was the first movie to have such a heavily stylized opening credits montage.
Yeah aside from it being creepy I much prefer this to just scenic views
I guess maybe we have different definitions of what stylized means, so it could just be a matter of taste, but I can think of dozens that did it before "Se7en" did. These may be spoilers if you ever want to watch these, Nia (although only spoilers of the opening credits, but still spoilers), so be warned:
First, we have "Lord of War." The life of a bullet from manufacture until it kills a child? Very unique and interesting. And while it only premiered like a week before "Se7en," it still technically came first.
We have the "Dawn of the Dead" remake in 1994, with the montage of civil unrest, religious imagery, riots, arson, zombies growling and blood moving behind the actual credits and with that Johnny Cash (I think?) music over it. They always stand out in my head. And while I generally hate country music, that song gets stuck in my head for weeks.
We have the opening for "Alien 3" in 1992, with those quick flashes of things happening intercut with the names in the credits, which basically flash-cut set up the entire movie. Say what you want about the movie itself, the credits were unique at the time.
"Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead" came out in 1991, with the whole cartoon intro of the babysitter being belligerent and various things happening to her... might not be as dark as "Se7en," but definitely counts as stylized.
But the big one is this: The entire "James Bond" franchise has some of the most stylized opening credits ever, and that started way back in the 60's. I'm not a fan of the Bond movies myself, but their opening credits are actually iconic. This is where the bulk of the stylized credits I can think of come in. How many Bond movies are there now? 25? More?
The most ancient one (non-James Bond) I can think of is "Mean Streets" in 1973, with the projector and the home movie clips giving you glimpses of the various characters and locations. Pretty interesting idea for such an old movie.
@@BubblyRainbows Yeah this was far from the first movie to have stylized opening credits like that. I can think of dozens from about 85-95 that had them, including tons of comedies.
This movie messed me up seeing it in the theater all those years ago. I was not not ready for any of it. I remember the entire place walking out in complete silence when it ended. We were all stunned.
Yeah, I think the fact that I watched several movies from his before the last being the game I was ready for some level of craziness but damn… that was intense!!!
This is an amazingly brilliant, thoughtful and completely disturbing film. You only need to see it once, it leaves the sense of a led blanket on your chest forever. "What's in the BOX???" 👀
We don’t wanna know 😭 😭
😂ok
There is ZERO training that can prepare someone who just found out not only that there wife was murdered but also finding out she was also pregnant which now your unborn child was also killed, while her head is in a damn box a couple yards away from you. 99.999999% of people in that same situation while holding a gun, with the killer right in front of them talking about how your wife begged for hers & her child's life would of shot him too. There's no controlling your emotions in that situation because there isn't any type of training that can prepare someone's mind of finding out that there loved one was murdered and getting all the info from the actual murdered right in front of you basically mocking you about it too
🍿 You are Not slow AF. You were catching more clues than most people I’ve seen react to Se7en. And you were making very good predictions. . . . Great reaction Beautiful 💐 😉
Not many people pick up on it, but aside from the suggestive imagery (and the name of the film), the early dialogue of Freeman saying "over the next 7 days" gives clues to the "Seven Deadly Sins" topic.
This and Shawshank are what convinced me that Morgan Freeman was the greatest American actor of the time.
I don't think he will spend even a day in jail. If that ain't temporary insanity , nothing is
This is a great movie with an amazing cast. But a very disturbing one at the same time. Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt was great in this as well Kevin Spacey as the twisted and insane antagonist John Doe. The ending will always get me. Like I knew this movie wasn't gonna have an happy ending. But man the twist at the end was something I didn't see coming with David losing both his wife and unborn child. In which lead him to killing John Doe. But anyway I hope you have a wonderful day. Stay safe, take care and stay amazing Nia Maki.
I hope you have a great weekend! The ending was definitely crazy! I thought I’d anything one or both of them would die 🤦♀️ what a tragic ending!!!
And to think Detective Mills wasn’t even going to be put on this case. I can only imagine the level of guilt and regret this man must’ve experienced
Great movie. Great reaction. Well done figuring it out Detective Nia, even though you didn’t want to believe you figured it out.
I think I like movies like this cause it lets me over analyze which is what I do even in a silly Disney movie 😂
But in reality, would a jury convict Mills? The "victim" was a serial killer, and had just killed his wife and baby, including cutting off his wife's head and having it delivered to him in a box. If I knew all the details and was on the jury, I might find Mills guilty of some lesser crime, but not murder of any degree, and I doubt manslaughter.
24:43 No matter who you are or what you've done or not done, you should never speak to the police for any reason without a lawyer. Never.
It's a tired myth that asking for a lawyer means you're guilty (even though he obviously is). It means you're smart and you don't want to get railroaded. We've already seen that these cops are corrupt enough to go outside the law to get what they want (even though we as the audience want them to do that, it's still sending that message). He's also covered in blood, so he definitely needs one.
This is a message that the media needs to stop perpetuating. It's dangerous.
It’s quaint that in 1995, it was a fanciful shock to speculate that the security agencies were monitoring people’s library accounts.
Times have, uh, certainly changed.
I don't blame david for killing that monster
Agreed, in that position I don’t think many could resist
@@NiaMakiReacts And no way any jury would convict him, "temporary insanity" being the keyword. He would never be allowed to be a cop again, not that he'd want to anyway. Mills is essentially 'dead'.
@@szeddezs Add in there the provocation and infliction of extreme emotional distress. Jury lets him walk.
One of my top 20 movies. Probably top 10.
Yeah it was done really well
At 1:47 . . . Nia Maki is getting creeped out ,
Well then , this is going to be GOOD !! 😁😉😊☺
Hello INFP, i'm INTJ, and you have great taste in movies!
The mind of a serial killer is, to a degree, fascinating. Most people go about their lives doing whatever society has been programming them to do, serial killers and a few others go against that but how their brain works is definitely something to be studied. That's why the fbi started their human behavioral science department.
Now, to come up with a movie like this is impressive as well.
Great reaction, you got a couple of important details early on.
this movie influenced so many things that you weren't even shocked by the ending. the same as fight club
DETECTIVE NIA!!!! BRAVO BECAUSE YOUR DETECTIVE SKILLS THROUGHOUT THE MOVIE WAS IMPRESSIVE! JOHN DOE WOULD'VE LONG BEEN CAUGHT HAD YOU BEEN ON THE CASE. lol
Seriously, she was killing it "keeping her eyes on the details"
Such a brilliant movie with an ending that will haunt you long after the end credits! Also a fun fact: Fincher actually planned to show Gwyneth Paltrow's head but Brad Pitt argued it would be more effective not to reveal it, and he was right.
Yeah I’m glad we didn’t see it lol, that would have sent me over
I didn't know that, but I absolutely agree with Pitt. It's better artistically, and showing just a flash of the wife's living face and having that make David lose it was brilliant. Also there's the fact that fake heads looks exactly like what they are: a fake head. They're never scary, they just look silly, while having the audience imagine the wife's severed head automatically makes it "look" right for each and every one of us.
It's the same principal as with the interrogation scene after the lust murder, making the audience use their own imagination is way more horrid than just straight up showing it on screen. Showing brief glimpses of the strap-on knife and Doe's 'her pretty head' line combined with Summerset's shocked reaction do all the work needed to get our mind racing.
@@szeddezs Leland Orser acts his butt off in his one scene as the Lust 'survivor', and makes it more terrifying than if we had seen it happen. He's an incredible character actor and really sells that scene with his shaking and hyperventilating.
@@LordVolkov Yeah he had a similar (and short-lived lol) role/performance in Alien Resurrection, great panic performance.
16:20 me damn near tearing up watching Gwyneth Paltrow do one of the best little reactions of her acting career with the unsaid context of those lines and moments later Nia is like "I don't think I trust her!" lol
Lmfaoooooooo my trust issues get worse the more I watch movies 🤣 now if I rewatch it I think I’ll view everything differently since I know she’s the victim
I always double-check to make sure I've liked a video at the end of it when I'm finished watching. But with your abrupt ending I feel you may miss out on a quite a few LIKES as auto-play starts another video immediately.😢 Maybe consider tagging on an outro with some credits and/or suggesting that people could watch your review video as well?😊
P.s. always love your reactions and that's why I took the time to say this
Nice to see you Nia
Love your reaction…try OLDBOY…it was just re-released in theaters…will blow you away if you like “surprises.” Don’t read anything about it first, it will spoil it, trust me.
"honestly like this movie...." 31:44 😅I agree
The sloth had you all jumpy 😂
Was filmed in California
Though it isn't mentioned, John Doe must have killed the dogs too 😭 They wouldn't let him hurt Tracy without a fight.
Yooooo!! So then when they pull up at the end and they see that one dead dogs and he’s like “I didn’t do THAT one” … 😭 😭
Honestly, like this movie
This is one of my favorites. I agreed with summerset when he talks about bringing a child up in this world today. I wouldn't do it either, but unlike him, I wouldn't be thinking what if I did things differently. Kevin Spacey is one of my most favorite actors.
Everyone has different reaction to how ends. Me personally would do same...reap what you sow.
They know your overdue books AND are _judging_ you for them!
31:00 Brad Pitt holds the gun weird here
Have you seen Fallen (1998) with Denzel Washington? It's one of my favorite movies.
Good pick. 👍
I may be the only person in existence that doesn't see this ending as John Doe "winning." Mills killing him may be what he wanted, but even as someone who had her years of being intensely keen on self-deletion, dying is not exactly what I'd call a win. And let's be real, Mills is a cop. Whose wife and unborn child were murdered. And he found out while he had a gun in his hand and the murderer was right in front of him. Cops always get off with a slap on the wrist even when they've done reprehensible things. Even with all the witnesses, given the circumstances, he absolutely gets off on the grounds of temporary insanity (justifiably, in this case), _maybe_ gets transferred to a desk job, and that's about it. John Doe dies, and I very much doubt that he becomes some kind of famous icon or academic case like he thinks he will. He's a weeklong headline that someone remembers and mentions once in a blue moon years down the road. That's all. Nice win, Doe. You idiot. 🙄
Yeah I’d hope he’d get the least amount of press and ppl forget about him soon enough. Actually, in this day and age he may be forgotten a lot sooner too. I definitely didn’t consider part about them getting just a slap on the wrist too. That’s true
I love this movie
9:15 I feel that in my soul Morgan Freeman =/
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hey Nia really enjoyed your reaction. Next you should do the films (2017) The Shape Of Water and (2009) The Lovely Bones you are going to love them.
Just mention the actors and director.
Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Gwyneth Paltrow and David Fincher
Get with the program
Well, I’m the worst with names, I have aunties and uncles that I couldn’t tell u their names… so, actors may take a while…
@@NiaMakiReacts ok
Creepy. Unsettling. Its good, but i never want to watch it again.
Hahahahaha for sure, very unsettling!!!
INFP, really? Me: INTP, lol.
You're disappointed in him?..He killed his pregnant wife, and cut her head off!..Wish we all could have your self control..What nonsense.
Cardinal virtues: hope, temperance, fortitude, love... [checks Google]... there's only 4 and they're temperance, justice, prudence, and fortitude.
Let me get this straight, you muttered. I'm disappointed in you after he beheaded his wife who was pregnant
I literally put “I get it though” when I said it. Doe won, giving him that satisfaction makes it all worse. Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t do the same in his shoes
Fake reaction, you've seen it before
I can safely say that I have never seen such a phony reaction to the end of this movie.
