Movie Review: Seven Pounds


Haunted by a secret, Ben Thomas looks for redemption by radically transforming the lives of seven people he doesn't know. Once his plan is set, nothing will be able to stop him. At least that's what he thinks. But Ben hadn't planned on falling in love with one of these people and she's the one who will end up transforming him.


Seven Pounds started off very slow, I was semi-confused in the beginning, but as it works it's way to the end, it all hits you like a blow to the head from a shotgun shell. It's truly amazing how great of an actor Will Smith is; in every movie he brings something from his own character to the movie, and it makes the movie magical.

If you didn't cry while watching this, there's something wrong with you. No, I'm only kidding, I didn't cry but my mom was balling, so for all you criers, be prepared and have tissue handy at all times. This movie does not just make you cry; it makes you smile, laugh, and it surprises you the whole way through. Your anxious to find out what's going to happen next.

I enjoyed this movie through it all. It's a must see, and it's on DVD.

10/10
