I usually greatly enjoy any Will Smith movie, however this movie took so long to develop that I found myself bored and wishing it would just hurry up and get to the point. I was able to predict the ending about a fourth of the way through the movie. Save your money and wait for it to come out on DVD.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Starts off a little piece meal, but unfolds in very personal bites. Great story of human love, pain, and desire. The whole cast is awesome! Worth the 2.5 hours. It left my friend spellbound the rest of the night.

Smith and Dawson have great on-screen chemistry in this difficult-to-figure-out thriller of the soul. I found myself saying WTF several times until all is revealed in the end. This is the kind of movie that intrigues you the first time, then you avoid spending any more time on it in the future.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

My husband & I saw this movie, we both felt the same way, the movie was slow, however it did keep you engaged till the end. The plot of this movie really makes you stop and take a deep look at your life and the people in it. Will Smith did a great job portraying "Ben" and his role as this character was very believable, sad and inspiring.

Rosario Dawson does give an outstanding
performance, however!

Movie of the Year, Oscar Award performances. Will Smith was exceptional in his acting for this movie. He showed his ability to really translate deep feelings of emotions that we all experience in our lifetime. I can still see his facial expressions that we use when words are not enough. Thank you Mr. Smith for such a wonderful experience. And Ms. Dawson truly lived up to her role and I don't think another actress would have been able to match her performance. Woody Harrelson's subdued character was a example of what we wish every person possessed. Kindness. One question. Is 7 pounds equal to the weight of a heart?
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This movie is outstanding. Most will say this movie is predictable but that's not the point. The point is with it being somewhat predictable it leaves the viewers wondering just how will their prediction play out? This is what it did to me and my girlfriend. We were blown away by Will's performance and if you like action packed Will than don't see this movie because it isn't for you. But if you're into seeing serious true actor Will than this movie is a must see. Definitely an Oscar Award Winning Performance.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Will Smith is a tour de force. Even from the smallest of gestures, he has tremendous acting talent. Although the movie started off a tad bit disjointed, it all came together to provide a very thought provoking cinematic experience. My only criticism was the inclusion of the supposed battered woman recipient in the story line. I walked away thinking that included with her 'gift' of his home, should have been a prohibition that she NOT move the batterer in there with her and her kids. One got the feeling that it wasn't going to change her life, only her locale. But, on the whole, I thought it was a very good movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This movie is abosultely BORING! I was trying to keep an open mind but the plot just took forever to develop and I didn't know if to walk out or to stay. I decided to stay to the end as I felt I had investing some time and hoped it would be worth the stay. BIG MISTAKE! This movie is so dissapointing. Good acting, which is why this movie got 2 stars otherwise it really deserves 1 star. Too bad!

The begining of the movie is a bit confusing, but you just have to go along for the whole ride to get the full effect of this very interesting movie.
This is definatly not a holiday happy movie, but on the other hand, it is a very serious movie about giving. Overall I found it to be a very powerful experience, well worth the price of admission. P. S. Take pleanty of Kleenex, its pretty rough when the popcorn salt on your napkin gets in your wife's eyes!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Even though the movie was slow to develop, once it got going it was worth waiting for the story line and unexpected ending. Will Smith has another A-1 performance. I will say, though I knew the "idea" of the movie from the trailer reviews, the ending is different than I anticipated or thought. Totally unexpected. Both sad and happy, it brought about a lot of emotion.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Will Smith was brilliant in this movie. He had to be because it was a little slow toward the middle of the movie. It all comes together at the end of the movie. I've only teared up a couple times at movies like Rudy, Terms of Endearment, etc. Well I definitely teard up at the end of the movie. If you see it, you'll know the part in the movie. It should make you go out and do nice things for strangers. I wish everyone and their families a great Christmas!!!

Overall, the movie was good. I heard that I needed to bring the kleenex, so I felt a little prepared to shed some tears. Will Smith has not disappointed me yet. He carried a so-so script and made the movie better than if another actor had played the part. His co-star, Rosario Dawson was terrific. The movie was nicely pieced together, but seemed a little slow here and there. The key is to allow yourselft to relax and be patient for the full plot to unravel. In the end, I was happy to spend two hours watching this movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Great acting, story and ending. I went into the movie with very high expectations and everyone of them were met. It has been a long time since i've been to the movies and been completely satisfied. I believe Woody Harrelson's role in this movie was my most pleasant suprise. I expected Smith to be great and step up to the plate and bash another home run over the fence. However Harrelson's part, though small, plays an intricate role in this film. Rosario Dawson also does a great job. I recommend everyone see this film.

Although I enjoyed the movie a lot, I had to ask an usher as I was leaving what the title had to do with the story...I got it that there were 7 recipients, but still couldn't connect the seven pounds.
The usher gave a plausible explanation, but I still left the theatre thinking, "Seven pounds of WHAT?"

With the exception of the last ten or fifteen minutes of this movie it was very much like watching paint dry. Will smith's character is pathetic throughout the movie and it is a challenge to relate to him on any level other than that of a guilty weak minded person. The love story that develops reads more like a female special ed teacher falling in love with her mature but mentally challenged student (will smith).
We both would have walked out of the theater but we kept hoping that there was at least an ending that would make an attempt at redeeming itself.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
