TV version of Se7en... on Lifetime, 10 March 2006
7/10
Author: MarieGabrielle from United States

Not a bad film, professing to be edgy with NYC art galleries, oddities, rain and fog (wow, after living in NY 20 + years I never knew there was so much fog)- I think the DP confused NYC with London.That aside, and if you can suspend your disbelief enough- the film is watchable.

Jennie Garth is actually very good. She is attractive, but not in a helpless female victim sort of way. She is on her own in NYC, and somehow meets Costas Mandylor, a mysterious tenant in her apartment building.

You will see the usual set decoration, complete with goth crosses- punk nightclubs- and ominous news clippings. Mandylor is believable, and strange. Billy Dee Williams is a surprise cameo as yet another weary NY detective. One disappointment is Williams' partner; played by Currie Graham, who does not look or act like a homicide detective. (This was where I saw the formula from Se7en; he is detective Colton, a novice to Williams-hmmm like Somerset and Mills (Brad Pitt-Morgan Freeman-Se7en) The story is worth watching, though, if you have ever liked Jennie Garth. If she ever dyed her hair, she may get offered roles other than the beautiful blonde femme fatale (from 90210) If she was ever offered a decent, suspenseful film, I would love to see her in that type of role. It is unfortunate how actors are typecast.

At any rate, this movie is acceptable as a TV suspense film. If you have not already seen Se7en though, you MUST see it; and let me know if you see the same parallels! (Warning: Kevin Spacey, Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt will have you hooked when you watch Se7en)
