Top to Bottom: David Fincher

 

Article by Terry Plucknett

Posted - 10/4/10

 

This weekend marks the release of the 7th David Fincher film (not counting Alien3 because, honestly, who does?) in The Social Network.  Looking back on Fincher’s career, there are some definite patterns.  First, there was the psychological thriller phase of his first three films (Se7en, The Game, and Fight Club).  Second came the traditional thriller phase, subtle but noticeable difference, with his next two films (Panic Room and Zodiac).  Now we are in the middle of his dramatic phase with The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and now The Social Network.  With the American version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo already confirmed as his next film, we will wait and see which direction his career will go next.  However, I want to look back on Fincher’s career so far and rank his films top to bottom, best to worst.  Although in Fincher’s case, there is not a worst, just a little less than best (and with what I have heard so far about The Social Network, it will continue this pattern).  Any way you want to look at it, here is the countdown of Fincher’s best.
