Movie theaters showing Seven Pounds near Charlotte,NC:
A really good movie. Smith's acting was wonderful and the story is heartwarming. Grampa even enjoyed it, said he had was getting a cold, but I think he teared up at the end. The teenagers cried along with the Mom's.
This movie glorifies suicide. At a time when this is an increasing problem for young people, this movie is highly irresponsible. I would have thought an actor of Will Smith's caliber would choose to make a movie that sends a better message but I was wrong.
I love Will Smith and I think he is a great actor, but this role and the direction of the director absolutely were boring. It appears that the director may have been going for something I totally missed. My husband agrees because my name is cry baby for tear jerking Dramas, but I actually fell asleep twice during the movie. Sad for us since we spent extra money to see this movie at Charlotte’s new Epi Center Theater, which included specialty drinks, lounge music and dancing. Sorry Will, but this movie is awful.
I really like Smith as an actor, and appreciate his willingness to go beyond what is easy. Yet this movie is a huge airball. The man called Ben Thomas could have saved himself untold trouble by finding a good counselor/therapist.
Will Smith and Rosario Dawson do good acting work here, but the script, camera work, and direction are too awful to overcome.
I thought it was a powerful and very touching movie. This movie touches the inner you and moves you in ways you didn't think possible. Will Smith really came though in this movie

Powerfully emotional picture too often defies logic, but may leave you deeply touched for all that. (Full review)
