Se7en is still such a thrilling movie

I had the chance to rewatch it again like a decade later last night and jesus I forgot how much of a mind fuck the movie really is. Especially the ending. One of the rare moments when the villain actually wins instead.

1. I suppose that film also still works with Spacey's baggage as a terrible creep...

And The Usual Suspect would still work on those grounds as well, apart from the getting-away-with-it aspect.

A movie ending which becomes ironically dissonant with his real life creepiness is American Beauty...

2. Yep

Someone commented that he wasn't acting in this scene. Like it's a shame Kevin is a pedo, he always nailed his creepiness in roles. Maybe those weren't exaggerated too much?

3. It takes on a certain poignancy when watching a second time

Because you know how it's going to end.
