An Honest Trailer for Se7en

Screen Junkies goes all the way back to 1995 to give us an Honest Trailer for the movie Se7en. I supposed that is pronounced seven, because it's about the seven deadly sins. Or rather, murders that are based on the seven deadly sins. It is not a feel good film. As you might expect, they find the repetitive devices the movie uses over and over that you didn't even notice when you saw it the first time. Even the stars are stereotypes: Morgan Freeman as an old cop ready for retirement, and Brad Pitt as the young, brash, and sexy cop. Yet they layered on so much misery and violence that Se7en became a surprise hit that we can't forget. Even this fake trailer/review may be disturbing.
