Movie Review : Seven Pounds
I
thought that no movie could exceed my expectations after 'The Pursuit of
Happyness',which I regarded as the best film ever made.Well,enter
'Seven Pounds',a beautifully crafted story ever put on film.Every
actor's performance was of the highest
calibre and each scene was so strong that it made me rethink my life.And
that is a great achievement for a film.Not even one actor was bad!
Don't get me wrong,TPOH was a very good film but this film would henceforth be number 1 in my list of top 10 and TPOH a definite and a close 2nd.Gabrielle Muccino and Will Smith should make more movies like this together and teach the judges at the Oscars that good movies needn't have a money-melting CGI or huge ships to win an award.Moreover,Oscars don't count for shit these days IMO.Hell,a score of 7 and/or above from me is better than a shitty movie getting an Oscar.Trust me,I am doing the world a favor.
But,enough about me...Seven Pounds is a movie that is to be appreciated by every individual and for those who cannot,or for those who don't have the patience to sit through good movies like thisthere is a tenth circle of hell waiting for you down below and I am in-charge of it.
In conclusion,this movie is a step above TPOH.I gave TPOH an 8.5,on my FB page,if I remember correctly.So,this film gets a 9/10 from me.
P.S.There is this particular gut-wrenching scene which takes place at a convalescent hospital early in the movie where Will Smith talks to an old lady and asks whether the doctor is treating her alright.Watch that scene on YouTube and tell me you did not cry.I dare ya!
