When Peter was taken to the prison car, in the darkness around him, I saw that his originally sharp eyes did not have the slightest breath of life, and despair flowed from the gray eyes, filling the whole picture. Looking at the distant prison van, gradually disappearing into the bleak setting sun, there was no sadness or anger on Morgan's old face. He slowly put on his hat and said something that shocked me. This sentence is more unforgettable than the shocking ending, and my thoughts cannot be healed. The movie ends. I'm a person who loves life, I've always thought so. I also know that real life is not a fairy tale. Inside the bizarre fairy tale appearance, there are often hidden ugliness that no one knows about. People yearn for the good, so they downplay the ugly. I haven't really seen how ugly things are, so I also subconsciously resist thinking about a lot of hypocrisy and corruption. However, there are always some people who will nakedly remove that beautiful coat and present some corruption to us, to us who are unwilling to admit it. The truth is shocking, and the cruelty is outrageous. Let us invariably and inevitably think about such a question after "facing the bleak life": how do we view the world again, and what way do we use to live again? David Fincher is such a person, and Seven is such an apocalypse. Many people say that this is a movie with an ending, that is, like "The Sixth Sense" and "Frightening Island", the whole movie is mythical only because of a shocking and unimaginable ending. I don't deny it, but I don't think Seven is so memorable just because of one ending. The director started to lay the groundwork from the very beginning, and began to design ingeniously and precisely, so that the feeling of depression, compactness and suspense has been slowly accumulating, and it will inevitably explode at the last moment, without suddenly realizing it. The awakening, there is only incomparable shock. It is precisely because of this that he did not simply organize the whole film for the sake of a far-fetched ending, but sublimated the already well-thought-out film through the shocking ending, thus making "Seven" reach a level beyond the reach of similar films. high. At the same time, this is what I like the most about the film. David Mills is a young and feisty detective who has been transferred to a New York police station for dereliction of duty. There he can't wait to take on a big case to show his ability. In fact, from the beginning of a series of scenes, we can already see his general character, some unruly, some impetuous, impulsive but have a desperate drive towards work. Of course, the grimness of the exterior conceals Without the tenderness and kindness in his heart, he loves his wife Tracy. What impressed Mills was the sudden call from his wife when he just moved to the new office. Mills was caught off guard. He was embarrassed to be seen by others, but he couldn't bear to blame his wife, so he whispered softly on the phone and comforted him. After hanging up the phone, he pretended to be calm to see if his partner had noticed. We couldn't help but smile when we saw this scene. When he got home, he rushed into the house to look for his "children", and when we saw him playing with a few dogs without any usual restraint, we found his childish and cute side again. . In the heart of such a competitive person, in fact, family is more important than work and status. The director began to brew some atmosphere from this time, because the final choice of the film has a direct relationship with his character. Detective William, with a face of vicissitudes and no shame, is highly respected in the police station. It can be seen that this black police detective who is over 500 years old has long established his own unique position with his careful thinking and calm style of work. This can be seen from the sheriff's respectful attitude towards him. However, behind these statements, he could always vaguely feel the desolation and indifference in his heart. Unlike Mills, who is full of vigor and vitality, William has seen too much ugliness in the world. Just imagine that he is exposed to the dark side of society every day, and how to understand the world with full enthusiasm. So he would refuse to take over the investigation when he found out that the budding criminal was planning a serial crime, and he would say in his conversation with Mills: "In this place, if there is a robbery or a rape to call for help, there is no need to do so. People will take care of you unless you're on fire." The expression on his face when he said this, joking, mocking, or revealing self-defeating. No matter from which angle you explain it, you can gain insight into his inner process, from the initial pain of unacceptable to the gradual indifference after seeing too much. Fortunately, he did not give up on himself because of this, he still had hope, and he was still struggling silently, although he was not as prominent as when he was young. That's why he took over the case in the end. But he may not have thought that what he and Mills are going to face is a madman who thinks he is sober in the name of God. Gluttony (gluttony), Greed (greed), Sloth (lazy), Pride (arrogance), Lust (lust), Envy (jealousy), Wrath (rage). When the first five sins of the seven deadly sins were presented in an inadvertent but unexpected way, I tried to imagine a very vicious and unforgivable extreme repeat offender. What kind of mentality does he have to be able to maintain the calm that ordinary people have when he brutally tortures a person to death. The investigation process of the two police detectives is actually a process of stepping into a trap, and every step is under the careful planning of the criminals. The director's style is also vividly reflected in this process. The shots are sometimes flowing, sometimes sharp and abrupt. The former is like William flipping through The Divine Comedy in the empty hall of the library. Accompanied by melodious music, the pages of the book are quietly turned over in silence, just like William frowning slightly when he is contemplating. is also slowly deepening. The latter's most obvious scene is when they meet in the hallway after they've managed to get the criminal's address, the only time it happens outside of his plans. I was stunned for a moment, and then, a gunshot ripped apart the calm scene just now. The tight pursuit, the shaking camera, the gloomy cloudy sky outside and the unstoppable heavy rain made this moment of shock abruptly increase the rhythm. . But in the end, when the coat-covered criminal removes the gun from Mills' head, the mysterious man's inexplicable behavior undoubtedly adds another layer of mystery to the film. It's finally time for the end of the movie. When John, who had been working in the dark, finally appeared, his two bloody hands were chasing after the two police detectives and said aloud: detective~~ The first sentence, in the empty police station hall , has made people shudder. Kevin The evil temperament of spacey is perfectly displayed in this role. I don't know how to describe it in detail. He is different from Dr. Hannibal's elegant evil, but it is straight to the heart. Perhaps only a "preacher" who thinks he is carrying out holy work can show that kind of evil self-confidence. And elegant disdain it! The final referee is a dim place, that's all I can describe. The dim field, the dim sky, and the dim yellow wind. Such a deserted place makes one feel a sense of isolation and helplessness. As it turns out, it does. Until now, the director was still making the final preparations for the final shock, and the uneasy elements in the atmosphere had reached their limit. When William opened the strange box that had been sent with anxiety and doubts, the fear and doubts that had been lingering before began to explode. William understood everything, he ran to Mills in the distance, and kept shouting one sentence: David, throw the gun away. At this time, John began to speak in a succinct manner, with a gentle tone, but he was like a devil. I can fully understand the mood of Mills at that time, because everything was written on Peter's face, he didn't want to believe it, because he didn't think about it at all, but the scary thing is that his heart was asking such a Question: Is this true? Pain, anxiety, fear, and madness made him struggle on the edge of reason. I still clearly remember Peter raising the gun and putting down the twisted expression that he wanted to kill him and then struggled with reason. He cried out in pain: oh, god .oh.god! But, when John announced the news that Tracey had a child, and saw Mills' unbelievable expression, he smiled slightly: oh, he didn't know. The image of Tracy began to flash back in Mills' mind. This sentence, like a fuse, ignited Mills' extreme anger, and his reason finally collapsed. John closed his eyes with triumphant satisfaction. The sound of gunshots sounded dull in the wilderness, as miserable as the lifeless dim yellow all around. Then, everything returned to the calm at the beginning. But my mind couldn't be calmed down. In a superficial sense, perhaps John is also a perfectionist, and the world he imagines must be perfect without a single blemish. Many people yearn for perfection, Van Gogh, Haizi, but when this society, which can never be perfect, cannot satisfy their ultimate desire, they choose extreme self-destruction; and John chooses to destroy others more extreme, in order to construct his mind. The realm of perfection. In any case, a person who does not even respect life is not qualified to talk about perfection, no matter how humble this life seems to others, even if it is in the name of God. After all, no matter how cruel the reality is, the ending is bleak. There will be many people like William who, even if they don't agree with the dark reality, will fight like him. Hemingway said: The world is beautiful and worth fighting for. I agree with both.
