Het zevende zegel Ratings & Reviews
- VOXPLEX3 december 2025An absolute masterpiece and a landmark achievement in the bountiful history of cinematography. Watching this work of art feels like stepping into another world, an important thing that most films of our current era fail to achieve.
- Rowan Krzysiak3 februari 2025Layers of poetic scenes and lines that require a fair amount of patience and effort from the viewer. I personally didn't love it but I did see enough to understand why people could.
- Madian Gargatagli26 februari 2026There are not many things that I am sure about in life, but one thing I know for sure is that this movie has the best representation of death ever
- Caleb Brian13 februari 2026Adding this to my list titled "Old films everyone says are good and they're right to say it". Everything I knew about this film were still images, parody, and the game played with death. But my assumption of what it was, and the reality of what it is were far divorced. For one, I did not expect the comedy in it, nor the tone of the film in general. Bergman explores faith very well here, and with a clear eye to humanity, the simple but exquisite joys of everyday life and the folly we make in search of meaning and place. If you haven't watched The Seventh Seal because you expect a dour and oppressive slog then rethink that. It's a film that explores the best and worst of humanity, and the struggle for meaning we all face before we perform the dance of death.
- ols4715 januari 2026Plex's depth of library is to be commended. I was in High School when this Ingmar Bergman classic came out. It's subtleties would have escaped me then. The characters' realization of their mortality was chilling.
- makdelart3 december 2025The more you think about this film, the deeper and more timeless it becomes. It is one of those films that you have to return to years later and reinterpret.
- Blackhawk Hosting17 november 2025A classic I can't believe I haven't seen sooner. Von Sydow in his prime. Very existentialist, hinging on the suggestion that death personified has some sort of troupe of followers.
- Kevin Ward1 juli 2025Never felt so much like eating strawberries and drinking a bowl of milk in my life.
