I haven't seen "Seven Pounds" but this was one of the funniest movie reviews I've ever read.

A bit harsh on the review. I actually liked Seven Pounds. It wasn't one of Will Smith's best, but it's a movie that both genders may like, i.e. a good compromise if one is looking for a date movie.

my son liked it | 1:03 p.m. Jan. 8, 2009

my son and daughter in law saw the movie and liked it. They are pretty harsh movie critics themselves. Just wondering - did you also hate another similar Will Smith movie "In pursuit of happiness" ?
