Default Seven Pounds

Anyone else watch this movie yet?

IMO this is the BEST movie Will Smith has ever been in. It's a great movie to take your girl to see if you haven't already.
If you have seen it, PLEASE don't post what it is about, other than what's in the trailers. Any details on this movie will ruin it.

I think this is by far the best movie of the year.

I watched it on OVGuide dot com, and I loved it. I don't know what it is with Will Smith, but he can't make a bad movie.... I even thought Hancock had a good story line.

7 Pounds is right up there with Pursuit of Happiness.. Smith just looses himself in this one... I cried ....

Gentlemen, this is a must see!!

At the risk of sounding like a girl. I got the sniffles.

It's an incredible movie worthy of several awards.

even Woody Harelson did an amazing job

I don't watch movies that have scientologists in any of the roles. Sorry, not on my list.

Even tho you have your own guidelines you like to go by. I would HIGHLY recommend that you break them to see this one specifically.
It's all about giving to people who deserve it.

Edit: I have the Pursuit of Happiness on DVD. and this was definitely a better movie over all. He was able to show more emotion in the PoH but the story line on this along with his great ability to really get into the role just makes it better.

A great quote from a comment on this movie.

I don't think that I've EVER seen a more MOVING film.. I just cried like my mother died...
Seriously...
Will Smith gives the performance of his life right along with Rosario Dawson and Woody Harrelson. It takes some time to understand what's going on at first, but once it all comes together it'll hit you like a freaking mac truck, and all you'll want to do is rip your heart out, because this movie is so sad.
There are only three other movies that have evoked this kind of emotion from me and they are, in order: Dancer in the Dark, The Notebook, and Titanic.
I'll add this one to the list..
