Plot: Two homicide detectives are on a desperate hunt for a serial killer whose crimes are based on the "seven deadly sins" in this dark and haunting film that takes viewers from the tortured remains of one victim to the next. The seasoned Det. Sommerset researches each sin in an effort to get inside the killer's mind, while his novice partner, Mills, scoffs at his efforts to unravel the case.


 
This isn’t your average or classic horror experience, it’s very much the thinkers movie. It essentially takes the good cop, bad cop formula and throws it on its head. The two leads of Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt work well together. Morgan is as excellent as ever, and Pitt hams it up a treat with some superb overacting, especially towards the end, the “what’s in the box” scene is legendary.

The premise, while dark is not beyond the realm of possibility, which makes it all the more terrifying, there’s no monsters or supernatural elements in this one.

The practical effects and set design are first class with some great cinematography. Direction is handled well by David Fincher and his film making style is evident throughout the runtime.

Theres also a great supporting cast here too with the likes of Kevin Spacey, Gwyneth Paltrow and John McGinley.

Theres a nice blend of multiple genres here with elements of action, suspense and mystery.

With a 2+ hour runtime, it can take some sitting through, but the reward is worth it.
 
Can't add anything to your review except possibly, the pacing is done so well you aren't allowed to be aware of the passing of real time.

Nice job. Great flick.
