    Seven Pounds

    Just saw it tonight.

    I won't say anything other than it is incredibly sad.

      Yes, I thought the acting was terrific, especially by Will Smith and Rosario Dawson. They had great chemistry together.

          I'm only curious as to what the big secret he has is.

          I'll take a guess as to what happens...

            I have no idea what it's about other than Will Smith is some kind of agent but I'm going to see it just because he's in it.

            If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                  Pretty much my mindset heading into the movie.

                        I plan to see this movie. I've heard that Smith chose this role as a means to expand his acting range and ability. Smith has said he wants to expand himself as an actor and really challenge himself.

                        Looks like this is a step in the right direction.

                          Other than a few trailers, I haven't really heard much about this movie... something that is rare when a big time actor like Will Smith puts out a movie.

                          Is it any good?

                          Will be real interesting to see if Smith can keep his $100 million dollar streak with this one.

                            Saw some previews and it looks interesting. Don't really know what it's supposed to be about. Which makes me want to see it even more. Will Smith is the man, too.

                              A friend of mine gave me the oscar copy a few days ago and it is a heartfelt movie. Incredibly touching and so fitting for this time of year, for those in the giving spirit.
