When going over evidence in Mills' and Tracy's vibrating apartment Sommerset asks Mills for some wine. Mills brings him some but Sommerset is too busy with his nose in a book to notice. It's not until a train goes by and Sommerset picks the wine up to avoid it spilling that he sees Mills brought him a big cup full of wine in a reqular ass cup. The look he gives the glass is the funniest bit in the whole movie.

2024-02-13 23:05:44 +0000 UTCI'm surprised you didn't know to yell "Fire!" instead of "Help!". I was under the impression that women teach that to one another, like how black families sit their children down to have discussions about being black in our society so they don't get shot by the cops. It is true that people will run towards someone yelling 'fire' rather than someone yelling 'help'. There is this thing that First Responders are taught. The fewer people around, the more likely someone will help. An example often used is the Hitchhiker scenario. A hitchhiker on a busy street is less likely to get pick up rather than one on a deserted empty road. On an empty road, drivers realize that there might not be another car around for a long while, so the likelihood of someone stopping to at least see what's up this person on the road is way higher than seeing this hitchhiker in the middle of downtown traffic. The effect is similar to passing the buck. When in a crowd, people will want to help but also secretly want someone else to step forward, first. So when someone screams for help, most people within earshot will figure that 'someone closer by will probably help them, if i run over there to help then I'll just be getting in the way'. That's why first responders exist. But very few people ever become one, sadly. And the reason people will run towards someone screaming 'fire' is to witness it, to be brave and help (savior complex). Lots of people have fantasy firefighter scenarios that they imagine in their free time. We are drawn towards fires, practically, instinctually. Think about it, in the wild, if you saw black smoke coming from over there, you wouldn't go to at least sneak a peek at what's going on? Lol, I sure a shite wouldn't but only because I know enough about what that could be from experience. Most people don't experience emergency situations on a frequent basis. Yelling 'fire' also startles people because they might be in danger too. Yelling 'help' also triggers trauma in those that did run towards 'help' only to be disciplined or punished or shamed for making things worse. Way more self-doubters in the world than people realize. Somerset had what is now called "compassion fatigue". This movie is heavy and it opens you. Remember, this film was made in 1995. Art like this is definitely a reflection of the times. I'm Gen X. I was a teenager around this time. This film, and Fight Club and the like (Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Natural Born Killers, Bladerunner), was one of those 'important because of the times' kinda things. It was one of a few things that woke a generation up.

2024-02-10 06:34:39 +0000 UTCAfter your opening words, I was like oh oh. I have watched the movie already, but seeing you go through this horror made me feel it again :/ I also remember the first time watching it having a huge emotional impact. So sending a lot of warm hugs, cause that always helps me :) Btw. especially the last scene I feel like is one of the most brilliant acting scenes of Brad Pitt. Anyways I am now off to my buddy buddy time shaving our chest :D

2024-02-10 01:09:41 +0000 UTCOn a recent watch of this movie I understood something about the devil's relationship with scripture. The manipulation of Mills was a great example of two things... Satan is perfectly capable of quoting the Bible and using it as a weapon to mislead and discourage. Also a pickup from "The Exorcist" that the attack is psychological and powerful. Mills was in effect, destroyed by these two elements. I guess that it is important to remember the "law of the heart" so to speak when encountering or facing such things. That's all I have I think.

2024-02-10 01:05:17 +0000 UTCThe lighting, rain and grimy look in this is commonly associated with the noir genre, which I love. The city it takes place in is deliberately unnamed because it is just meant to represent the worst of humanity as far as I am concerned. It definitely takes you on a ride right on up to that twist which is still great today. Fincher's Zodiac and Gone Girl are really good too so hopefully you will get to see them as well. I think Zodiac might be his best work.

2024-02-09 14:18:13 +0000 UTCThat entire intro wondering about if the movie is any of those things... I'm just like, Yes. All of the above. IT IS ALL OF THOSE THINGS. YUP. 🥴 The world is worth fighting for, and I agree with Summerset that it's not a fine place. Howard Shore's music is so good in the movie, same composer as LOTR. It's such an interesting musical juxtaposition between this, LOTR of course, and that he was the original composer for Saturday Night Live in 1975, and his end credits theme music still plays at the end of the show to this day. He also wrote the theme song for Late Night with Conan O'Brien. The man can paint music with MANY colors.

2024-02-09 09:47:10 +0000 UTCThis is an experience movie. I've seen it twice before and I consider it an all-time great movie, but not one to re-watch. I did for this and I needed to cover my eyes for some of the more graphic scenes. Having said that, watching it back, they hide the twist ending well. If you know Kevin Spacey's voice or look closely you can catch him in the early scenes. The most consequential and mind bending part is when John Doe spares Mills because he decides to use him instead for his plan. Like think about it, he holds the gun to his head and basically begs for his life. Doe gives him his life, but as he says in the car "the life I allow you to live," takes so much away from him. Brad Pitt's character unknowingly made the same choice that the woman with the cut off nose, but chose life.

2024-02-09 04:23:09 +0000 UTCNo i missed it! That's why it's familiar!!!

2024-02-09 04:22:52 +0000 UTCNot sure if you saw my original comment on the poll, but you’re spot on connecting it with Fight Club in your outro. It was from the same director of Fight Club (David Fincher).
Mr. Platinum
2024-02-09 04:16:06 +0000 UTCYou'll be thinking about this one for a while. Lots to digest.

2024-02-09 04:15:28 +0000 UTCAlso, not sure anyone else pointed this out, but the one day where it is sunny is when they are taking Hohn Doe to the last victims. I feel it points to his quite from Milton about “long is the road out of hell… that leads up to light”
Mario Serra
2024-02-09 03:59:02 +0000 UTCI don’t think John Doe was struggling in this particular movie. I think for this movie, he was a true believer in what he believed. For him I think he believed he was doing what was right. But it makes you think about anyone who is 100% steadfast in whatever belief that they have that they will do whatever they have to do to progress that belief.

2024-02-09 03:55:38 +0000 UTCwhat the hell; i didnt like this movie

2024-02-09 03:33:11 +0000 UTCNot going to lie I feel a little bad about suggesting this but I cant wait to watch your reaction to this. 👀
Charlie G
2024-02-09 03:25:59 +0000 UTCIt really is. You made a comment that you couldn’t get comfortable watching the movie. Apt way to describe this movie. It makes you feel uncomfortable. Brief moments where you feel you can slightly relax and then something happens to snap you out of that.

2024-02-09 01:51:17 +0000 UTCso off-putting and creepy, done magnificently :)

2024-02-09 01:21:23 +0000 UTCWhen I saw this movie win the poll after I also voted for this movie: "..... hmm, did we go to far this time?" Guess I gotta watch this reaction to find out lol
MrAlexSan
2024-02-09 00:50:07 +0000 UTCI remember when this movie first came out and was just blown away. The pace, the acting, the whole thing g was just brilliant. One of my favorite thriller/suspense movies. As always Morgan freeman is brilliant in this.
