THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS
Hello everyone. My name is Elijah. I`m from T level. This is my first presentation. As you see, if you think I just want to talk about this number that you must think : …What`s wrong with him?‟ Well, “seven” is a name of the movie. It means“The seven deadly sins”. Today, I`d like to share some ideas about this Oscar movie with everyone.
This movie is based on a dark, horrifying and intelligent thriller. Maybe It`s too disturbing for many people. I imagine, although if you could bear to watch, you would see film-making of a high order. It tells a story of two detectives. The old one is William who`s ready to retire played by Morgan Freeman. The other one is David who`s at the start of his career played by Brad Pitt. They attempt to capture a perverted serial killer who is using the seven deadly sins as his style.
First in the case, the two police trace the killer, which feels like a detective movie. The slain of gloom and gruesome crime scene at the beginning of movie makes people nervous.they suddenly realized that the killer is preaching to kill whom has the seven sins: Gluttony(As you see, there is a massive man in the picture who eats junk food such as a can of spaghetti and instant noodles or whatever every day). Greed ( This man is a lawyer, he dedicated his life to make money by lying ,with ever breath that he could muster to keep bad person on the streets),Sloth(you can see a man who is as thin as a lath, in fact, he‟s a drug dealer and a
lazy beggar),Lust(The definition of lust as given by the DIVINA: excessive love someone is lust, I think some of the others must have seen the TV-series Starbucks, so I do not say anymore, you know that~),Pride(The killer says :This women so ugly inside that she couldn‟t bear living if she couldn‟t be beautiful on the outside), Envy and Wrath. The religious significance also starts from here, and the story become more and more stressful. Especially at the end of the film when the killer was nearly arrested he was voluntarily surrendered. He said he was chosen by God to punish those guilty men.
This is a desperate film, it shows people the evil and indifference in the world, but It doesn't tell people how to avoid the deterioration of the situation. The film has shaped a woman Tracy who has a good humanity was finally murdered. The movie shows the world's dark side. The bright warm side was completely obscured. The love between David and Tracy is a beam of light in the dark back ground but still with Tracy being killed at the end. What is the way out for people? At the end of the movie ,the old police officer William quoted the words of Hemingway: the world is a fine place, and worth fighting for. I agree with the second part. This conclusion is not convincing. This world is not good so that what the meaning of the people to fight?
After reading, my mood is very heavy. At least life will not because of original sin be wiped her original beauty. Cases are always in the rainy
days, but the final outcome is in the sun. After the rain is always sunny. but in sunny days just a red sun can appear in the sky? Fear, panic...... Take control of your own life is the most important. This movie is classical enough worth watching, dumping, thinking.。
七宗罪英文观后感
七宗罪英文观后感"Se7en" (Seven) English Movie Review.Well, "Seven" is one heck of a movie that really gets under your skin.First off, the whole concept of the seven deadly sins as the basis fora serial killer's spree is just brilliant. It's like the killer is somesort of a twisted moral enforcer, which is both creepy and fascinating at the same time. You've got this dark and gloomy city as the backdrop, and it sets the mood perfectly. It's like the city itself is a character, alldirty and full of secrets.The characters are really something. Brad Pitt's character, Mills, is this young, hot headed detective. He's like a bull in a china shop, always ready to charge in. And Morgan Freeman's Somerset is the old, wise cracking veteran. Their dynamic is great. They're like oil and water at first, butas the movie goes on, you can see how they start to work together, even if they don't always see eye to eye.Now, let's talk about the killer. He's not your typical slasher movie maniac. He's intelligent, methodical. He plans everything out so carefully. And when you finally meet him, it's not at all what you expect. He's not some hulking brute. He's just this ordinary looking guy, but his eyes... they give away that there's something seriously wrong in his head.The ending. Oh boy, the ending! It's a real gut punch. I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it, but it's one of those endings that just leaves you sitting there, stunned. It makes you think about a lot of things, like the nature of evil, and how far people can be pushed.All in all, "Seven" is a movie that stays with you long after the credits roll. It's not a feel good movie by any means. It's dark, it's gritty, but it's also a masterclass in suspense and character driven storytelling. It's like a rollercoaster ride through the seedy underbelly of human nature, and I'm glad I took the ride, even if it left me a bit shaken.。
Seven(七宗罪)1995经典电影英文影评
Seven(七宗罪)1995David Fincher's classic tale of inventive serial killing and urban degredation, with Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman on excellent formWho'd have thought? An absurd-sounding tale of a serial killer basing his crimes around the seven deadly sins, directed by the man behind the mess that was Alien3, turning out to be one of the most chilling and original thrillers of the 1990s.From the outset, through the film's brilliantly designed deliberate under-lighting - we see very little blood and guts - and muffled sound, the audience is encouraged to lean towards the screen, immerse itself in the film's unbearably grim world.Pitt is in career-making form as Mills, a simple cop moving with his sweet young wife (Paltrow) to a grim, anonymous city, determined to make a difference, to do some good. He is assigned to track down a vengeful killer, and works alongside Somerset (Freeman), a jaded, wise policeman on the verge of retirement.The two are that modern movie cliché -the mismatched pair thrown together by circumstance, who gradually learn mutual respect. But Fincher and Walker take these hackneyed ingredients, play with them in the context of a brilliantly cohesive plot, and present something consistently fresh - the police finding themselves with too much evidence, the premature unmasking of the killer - and very, very dark.1。
《七宗罪》观后感 英文版
The Seven Deadly SinsA sense of "Seven sins": an Analysis of the darkness of Human NatureWith its unique narrative techniques and profound theme connotation, the film Seven crimes has successfully aroused the audience's deep thinking on human nature and society. From the perspective of two policemen, the film reveals seven kinds of original sins hidden in human nature through their contest with a serial killer, and how these evils affect the fate of the individual and the stability of society.The seven sins in the film are arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, gluttony and lust. These evils are not abstract concepts, but are embodied in the actions and decisions of each role. Arrogance, for example, led police officer Mills to despise the killer's wisdom in the course of his investigation, which eventually led to his failure, while jealousy upset the policeman's achievements and affected their cooperation. These plots show the audience how the weaknesses of human nature are exploited by sin, which leads to a series of tragedies.The film challenges the moral bottom line of society through the criminal behavior of serial killers. The killer chose the target and committed the murder on the basis of seven crimes, leaving the whole city shrouded in fear. This extreme act of violence not only reveals the indifference and connivance of society to evil, but also reflects the potential violence and cruelty in human nature. When the killer was finally subdued by the police, the audience could not help but look forward to the moral reconstruction of society and the redemption of the individual.The end of the film is even more thought-provoking. Police officer Mills, after killing the killer, realized that he was also caught in the sin of outrage and could not extricate himself. This plot makes the audience see the contagion and universality of sin, but also allows people to reflect on whether they can stay awake and rational in the face of sin. Mills finally chose to commit suicide in order to wash away his sins, which is not only a confession of his crimes, but also a defense of social morality.With its profound theme and fascinating storyline, Seven sins has successfully brought the audience into a world of sin, redemption and morality. The film not only shows the dark side of human nature, but also reveals the neglect and indulgence of sin in society. It makes us realize that in the face of sin we must not take it lightly, but need to resist its erosion with a clear mind and firm moral belief. At the same time, the film also reminds us that in the pursuit of justice and truth, we need to remain vigilant and introspect at all times, so as not to fall into the quagmire of sin.In short, "Seven sins" is a thought-provoking film. It makes us see the contest between evil and good, sin and redemption in human nature, and also makes us have a deeper understanding of the construction of social morality and individual self-redemption. Through this film, we can not only better understand the complexity and multifaceted nature of human nature, but also inspire our courage and determination to pursue truth and defend justice。
七宗罪观后感
七宗罪观后感人性之深处，隐藏着无尽的欲望和罪恶。
这是人类自古以来一直探讨的话题。
而电影《七宗罪》则以其黑暗而扣人心弦的剧情，深刻地探讨了人性中的七宗罪。
观后，让我不禁陷入了深思。
**1. 傲慢（Pride）**电影中的主要反派约翰·多（John Doe）以一种令人震惊的方式，彰显了傲慢的本质。
他认为自己拥有道德的高地，足以对他人的罪行进行审判。
这种自大和对自己道德标准的过分自信，导致了无法挽回的灾难。
这让我想到了现实生活中，傲慢与偏见如何导致冲突和分裂。
**2. 嫉妒（Envy）**剧中的一幕中，角色迪特里克·斯特姆（Detective Somerset）谈到了城市中的嫉妒和对他人生活的不满。
这种嫉妒导致了许多人在追求物质财富时，忽略了自己内在的需求和幸福感。
观众在这一场景中得以反思，我们是否也受到嫉妒的困扰，是否忽略了自己真正的欲望。
**3. 愤怒（Wrath）**电影中的犯罪场景常常充斥着愤怒和暴力。
这种愤怒通常源自社会不公平和个人的痛苦，然而，它却以令人震惊的方式释放。
观众不禁思考，愤怒是否真的解决了问题，又是否有更好的方式来应对困难和痛苦。
**4. 懒惰（Sloth）**电影中，一名罪犯被囚禁在一个腐烂的房间里，迫使他面对自己的懒惰。
这一情节让观众思考，懒惰和拖延是否也是一种罪恶，它们如何剥夺了个体的潜力和机会。
**5. 贪婪（Greed）**贪婪在电影中得到了充分的展现，无论是那些以不正当手段谋取金钱的罪犯，还是那些沉迷于奢侈品和物质享受的人。
观众可以看到贪婪如何导致了腐败和犯罪，同时也考虑到自己是否也被贪婪所困扰。
**6. 淫欲（Lust）**电影中的淫欲罪以令人不安的方式呈现，暴露了人类欲望的黑暗面。
观众可以思考，淫欲如何导致了伦理和道德的崩溃，以及如何寻找平衡以满足自己的欲望，同时又遵循道德规范。
**7. 食量（Gluttony）**电影中，食量罪以令人作呕的场景展现出来，让观众直面过度的欲望和自我放纵。

七宗罪观后感(精选多篇)
七宗罪观后感(精选多篇)世界是美好的，值得我们为它奋斗——观《七宗罪》有感earnest hemingway once wrote, “the world is a fine place and worth fighting for.” i believe the second part.电影的最后，是somerset留下这句话在昏黄的黄昏，最后完成john完美作品的地点——那片在美国电影中总是出现的荒无人烟的土地上，留着一只狗的尸体，一列的警车，忙碌的警察，警车带走mills留下的一溜儿烟尘。
无论别人对“se7en”的评价如何，在我眼里，大卫·芬奇成功了，循序渐进的情节设置，整部电影的色调变化，掩藏在每句台词里的暗讽和黑色幽默，每个犯罪现场包括两位主角以及john的家的拍摄角度、光线，mills在片子里的性格转变亦或是该说性格的多面性的表现，恰到好处。
经得起推敲。
每个画面连接起来变成一部电影，每个镜头的拍摄却都是独立的，所以当片子的开始，导演把镜头转到somerset 的卧室，跟着他起床的脚步转换时，我们看到的是一个穿戴整齐干净的黑人，从床头柜上摆放整齐的物品中一件件按其该有的顺序安置到自己的身上，他甚至捡起一颗外套上的脏东西，有着良好生活习惯的somerset。
在这个脏乱混沌的城市，伴着节拍器的声音和窗外的谩骂声争吵声入睡。
一个年近半百即将退休离开警局的警官，独居，沉稳，有经验，理性，阅览群书，当然这是整部电影告诉我们的。
另一边，一个有着娇妻，年轻，急切，冲动，刚刚申请到此地的mills。
相对老套的，老少搭档。
七宗罪，it begins with gluttony，饕餮。
雨天，蟑螂滋生的昏暗房子，一个被埋在面碗里的大胖子。
当somerset在暗藏在角落里的凶手的第一句留言“long is the way and hard that out of hell leads up to light”和用脂肪写的gluttony时，我所能想到的是“天才，疯子”。
《七宗罪》的英文影评1
《七宗罪》的英文影评1This is a fantastic movie and I cannot really find anything wrong with it, but in the end it is just a crime drama. The one thing that sets it apart from the rest of the crime dramas is the excellent cast and one of the bleakest ending ever caught on film. Fincher really did do a fantastic job of putting together a well-paced and surprisingly thought provoking movie.Morgan Freeman is the constant in the movie that never allows the viewer to lose hope that the situation is not hopeless, while keeping the viewer cynical enough to make the city that they live in a land of misguided hopeless souls. Freeman has such brevity that is really just amazing to watch him. Pitt on the other hand does a very respectful job of being the young cop with ambitions of saving the world and has places well across from the jaded Freeman. Spacey of course played his character spot on and when he gives himself on is probably the creepiest thing in the movie because at this point you have no idea what he is up to, but you know that is is in total control of the situation.I love how Fincher choose to keep the city raining and lit most of the scenes to emphasize the dark. This matched the darkness nature of the film perfectly. The fact that the last scenes was in the bright day light just made it that more shocking. One can tell that a lot of care when into presenting the world to the viewer in a way that matched the themes perfectly.I think that car ride provided a great forum for us to get to know John Doe even though we only spend a few minutes we seems to know him so well. One can see Mills going down hill and is losing his footing on the moral high ground. It is extremely well played and I love how Summerset comes off as being a match for him. In a way I see Summerset and Doe as being similar, with the main difference of Doe being crazy.I think this is an extremely well done and smart entry of crime dramas that really flips some of the conventions in a way that can be surprising. The fact that they do not catch the killer, but the killer turns himself in and that fact that the cops lose. They do not save anyone's lives and they fall into the trap that Doe set up for them. I very much enjoyed this film and it was paced and put together in a very effective way.(ZZ from IMDB)。
七宗罪 影视鉴赏 英语论文
The Dark Style of Se7enAbstractThis paper centers on the dark style of the film Se7en,which is christened as “film noir”.What Se7en interests and impresses me most is its film noir characters, surreal,nightmarish atmasphere and its disturbing visual style.This paper introduces some basic knowledge of film noir and emphasizes on the analysis of the dark style of Se7en from several aspects,including lighting,setting, and angle.Key Wordsfilm onir;dark; unease1.IntroductionSe7en, a dark, grisly, horrifying and intelligent thriller, may be too disturbing for many people, I imagine. But if you can bear to watch it, you will see filmmaking of a high order. It tells the story of two detectives - one ready to retire, the other at the start of his career - and their attempts to capture a perverted serial killer who is using the Seven Deadly Sins as his scenario. Director David Fincher doesn't want his audience to be comfortable for a moment while watching "Seven." Shaky camera shots, dark sets and a disturbing script that takes its characters to the extremes of emotion all contribute to the film creating a unsettled feeling that stays with you for a couple hours after the credits roll.2.literature reviewThe concept of film noir first emerged in 1940s France.Having been deprived of Hollywood films during the Germa occupation,French critics were finally able to see an numble of Hollywood films that had been made during the war years.The group of films that they saw shared a common visual style and a mood of cynicism,pessimism,and darkness,and they christened them “film noir”.Film noir characters are morally ambivalent,that is to say ,it is often impossible to draw clear lines between the “good” and the “bad”,and the traditional distinctions(cops=good/criminals=bad)no longer apply.Police and law enforcers arefrequently corrupt,or at least corruptible; criminals and lawbreakers may emerge as sympathetic figures;and victims are often themselves also villains.The protagonist is no hero;instead,he is an all-too-human figure who may both perpetrate(as well as suffer)some appalling abuse in the course of the film.A surreal,nightmarish atmasphere characterizes film noir film.This mood is fostered by unexplained motives and confusing plot twists.It is often difficult to establish motives for characters’actions,and equally difficult to predict in which direction the plot will spin. The audience experiences the kind of uncertainty and disorientation,feeling in a dream.The overriding theme of film noir is a fear of the future..The mood of film noir is that of loss,nostalgia,and trepidation.3.Own analysisMuch of the distinctiveness of Se7en can be attributed to its skillful adaption of the conventions of film noir to the contemporary world.There is a common moral ambiguity,which casts heroes as potential villains and villains as potential heroes;a trepidation about the future and nostalgia for a more civilized world that exists only in the imagination;a puzzling and disturding narrative which andermines one’s expectations;and the characteristic noir style of perpetual rainfall,low-key lighting,and a subdued colour palette dominated by dullish grays,murky browns,and putrid.It is a classic film noir,but with a twist—a serial-killer narrative that raises import contemporary questions about the respective roles of morality,culture,and the media in our postmodern urban world.A central feature of most film noir and neo-noir is moral contradiction.It is frequently difficult to draw clear lines between good and bad,or state with certainty who it is that occupies the high maral ground.This is certainly the case with Se7en,in that neither Mills nor Somerset demonstrates unimpeachable standards.In their professional lives,for example,both are prepared to take immoral (and even illegal)measures to achieve their goal of arresting and prosecuting John Doe.Somerset bribes an associate in the FBI for access to the library records of borrowers—of course,the fact that the FBI even keeps such records is of questionable legality—and together they use this illegally gathered information to find out Doe’s address.When they reach his apartment,Mills simply kicksopen the door,rather than follow the correct and legal procedures,and first get hold of a search warrant.Aware that illegally gathered information would be invalid in a court of law,they then proceed to bribe an poor local resident to make up a story that will exculpate them.The victims of Doe’s cruel crimes are definitely no better.The obscenely fat man is an insult to human dignity;the greed of Elias Gould is fed by the money earned from defending rapists and murderers in court;Theodore Allen,punished for sloth,is actually a drug dealer and maker of horrific sexual crimes;the blonde woman is a prostitute in a seedy sex club;and the model was so vain that she could not live without her good looks.“The over-riding noir theme is a passion for the past and the present,but also a fear of the future.The noir hero dreads to look ahead,but instead tries to survive by theday,and if unseccessful at that,he retreats to the past.Thus film noir’s techniques emphasize loss,nostalgia,lack of clear priorities,insecurity;then submerge these self-doubts in mannerism and style.In such a world style becomes paramount;it is all that separates one from meaninglessness.”(Schrader,Paul.1999.Notes on Film Noir.) Se7en employs many of the classic film noir/neo-noir techniques to create its disturbing visual style.The main techniques and their effects are shown below.The look of "Seven" is crucial to its effect. This is a very dark film, the gloom often penetrated only by the flashlights of the detectives. Even when all the lights are turned on in the apartments of the victims, they cast only wan, hopeless pools of light. Gary Wissner, the art director, goes for dark blacks and browns, deep shadows, lights of deep yellow, and a lot of dark wood furniture. Film noir/neo-noir relies on the play of light and darkness for its characteristically oppressive mood,and se7en is no exception.To increase the luminosity of light tones and the density of the darks,director of photography for se7en,Darius Khondji,employed the seldom-used method of silver retention.The contrast is further exaggerated by the use of mise-en-scene:shadows,silhouettes,and flashlights probing into the envenoping darkness are the visual hallmarks of the film.Darkness thus becomes a symbol of that which is hidden beneath the surface;as Amy Taubin remarks,the film’s visuals”literalize the struggle of bringing things to light”.Yet while film noir/neo-noir tends to use darkness to create its sense of unease,this is not inevitably the case.In the final sequence,se7en relies not on darkness but on brightness—the scorching light of the desert—to induce asense of fearful anticipation.Khondji puts it this way,”For me,when I read the script,scary had to do with darkness.But it’s not always the case,sometimes it’s to do with a lot of light and no shadow at all```I thought that the scariest thing to suggest would be that there’s nowhere to hide.”As in most film noir/neo-noir,the setting is the city.Even when,in the final sequence,Mills and Somerset drive out into the desert,the city and its objects are never far away—it is theere in the pylons that ferry electricity to and fro,and it is there in the helicopter circling overhead.Scenes are generally filmed either indarkly lit interiors,or outside when it is raining.This predilection for city settings and dark interiors contributes to the prevailing mood of claustrophobia and entrapment.The low-angle shot is employed with great regularity,and has the effect of making buildings,ceilings,and human figures seem to loom down on the camera(and audience) in a sinister,theatening manner.Wide-angle lenses exaggerate this effect still further by distorting lines of positionally,lines are used to split the screen diagonally;they are used most prominently in this way in the final desert sequence where the electricity cables crisscross the screen.Se7en breaks the 189-degree rule in the scene in which Somerset and Mills drive Doe into the desert.One minute the camera is filming from the left,the next from the right,then from the back towards the front,and then from the front towards the back.This creates an effects of dislocation and visual confusion that is part of the overall sense of unease of film noir.“Even in close-ups,fencher keeps an uneasy distance(he favours low-angled shots,rather than eye-of-God overheads).The camera sometimes seems tofloat,sometimes seems dragged as if by sn undertow.The extremely shallow focus is a way of controlling the view’s eye,making you look at waht you don’t want to see an d suggesting that there;s something worse that you just can’t get a grip on lurking on the periphery.”(Taubin,Amy.2000.The Allure of Decay.)4.ConclusionAll in all,Se7en deserves all the reputation it has received.It gives us such a shock by successfully employing many of the classic film noir/neo-noir techniques.Its lighting,settings,shotting and scenes all together make the film worthy of the name of perfection.Bibliography[1]Schrader,Paul.

A set of fingerprints found at the scene of the "Greed" murder, the fatal bloodlettingof a rich attorney, leads them to an apartment where they find an emaciated man strapped to a bed. Though he initially appears to be dead, it soon is discovered that the man has been kept alive and entirely immobile by the killer for exactly one year to the day; a drug dealer and child molester before his captivity, this victim represents "Sloth", and dies soon after from shock.
• With the sun setting over the desert, Somerset quotes Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls: "The world is a fine place and worth fighting for.' I agree with the second part."
