it wasn not good . it be great . remarkable performance and morgan freeman at his best and simply brilliant . gwyneth paltrow do a role like few woman would have succeed in this type of movie and and brad pitt be pretty good too ( despite not like him . ) i fell the need to glue my eye to the screen and this movie fill me up right from the beginning . fine acting and fine plot and great effect and the timeline sequence of every event be completely flawless and and why not . everyone should learn something about their moral with this movie and even the more obvious lesson and be obsessive in order to avoid the seven sin may be a sin itself . and when a movie teach you something to make you evolve and and at the same time you enjoy and spend some quality time i think i can say that the goal of the movie be accomplish and they have set up the bar very high and but still and they manage to live up to the hype . which make this movie a classic . 1996. it seem like i saw it yesterday .
