Wow what a great film. Did not know what to expect and the story is not obvious until very near the end. Get the tissues - a great watch!

Seven Pounds review by Jawbreaker
Don't believe the hype

Will Smith teams up with the director of In The Pursuit of Happiness for another sentimental tale. The studio hyped Will’s performance in Seven Pounds, and while it is certainly a meatier role compared to previous outings, it’s not expansive or demanding by most standards. Smith should stop playing safe and really throw himself into a part that requires research, dedication and a total transformation. Instead we have another clean cut corporate type, who has everything life can provide. He plays, well; it would be spoiling the predictable twist to really delve into the plot. Seven Pounds is a story about redemption, good deeds and helping strangers. We can certainly all take something from this in today’s society, when others may not be as fortunate as ourselves. As a drama it lacks weight, depth and development, when the premise warranted much more.
