Seven is a classic, Anamorph is disposable entertainment. Anamorph is no where near as dark, disturbing, intriguing, visceral, or anything as, Seven, that's why I called it a crime drama. The only way, Anamorph is comparable to, Seven is in the crime scenes that are staged by the killers and that's where any comparison ends. The crime scene discoveries and their eventual reveals to the viewer are underwhelming. The first 80 minutes are rather flat, and they serve as a set up for the last ten to fifteen minutes. The movie never builds to any quantitative tension, though there is a certain broody mood and tone throughout most of the film. The anamorphic images present an interesting premise for the method behind the killers madness. We get the explanations of what the anamorphic images are, but when we are shown them on screen, it fails to have the impact that the movie demands. Worthy as queue filler.

This movie had a very interesting storyline, but it was slow moving, dark and depressing. Then, to cap it off, the ending was...confusing at best. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Willem Dafoe was at one time a great actor who's films you could depend on to be decent....not anymore. I cant beleive how far this actors star has fallen...did he even read the script?
terrible, slow movie, not worth renting. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
