As we kick off the new year, we are in for a treat as a classic 90s thriller is making its way back into cinemas. The highly acclaimed psychological thriller, Se7en, is celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2025 and to mark this milestone, a special remastered version will be shown in IMAX cinemas in London. But that's not all, for those outside the capital, the film will also be released on digital platforms and Blu-Ray disc for the first time in stunning 4K resolution.
Starring Hollywood heavyweights Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, and Gwyneth Paltrow, Se7en follows two detectives, Mills and Somerset, as they try to track down a brilliant yet elusive killer. Along the way, they discover that the killer is targeting his victims based on the seven deadly sins. Set in a gritty and crime-filled city, Paltrow plays Mills' wife Tracy, who is pregnant and fearful of raising a child in such a dangerous environment. She finds solace in her friendship with Somerset.
With an impressive 95% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes and 83% from critics, Se7en has earned its place as a fan favorite and is often included in lists of the best films of all time. The film is also known for its shocking plot twist at the end, which is sure to leave audiences on the edge of their seats. As one official studio material puts it, the ending promises to "rip the scar tissue off the most hardened soul."
Among its many rave reviews, fan James Lough raves about Se7en, calling it a "poignant and deeply disturbing classic" with talented performances, a smart script, and haunting score. It has also been praised as a "compelling and brilliant post-modern film noir" with a "shattering climax" and described as "breathtakingly good."
The film has been hailed as a masterpiece and "one of the most disturbing movies I have ever watched" by audience member Richard Townsley. Critics have also praised director David Fincher for his genius and ability to "pierce the heart" with his work. Even Pitt himself recalls feeling anxious after the film's premiere, where the audience's silent reaction to the shocking ending left him wondering what they had done wrong.
Despite the initial apprehension, Se7en went on to be a huge success, grossing over $327 million on a budget of just $33 million. Fans can relive the suspense and thrill of Se7en when it becomes available on digital and 4K UHD disc on January 6, 2025, and will also be shown in select cinemas from January 10, 2025.
