I've rarely seen a film so sure of its own seriousness and profundity.

It's a lovely performance [by Dawson], in part because her character throws every charm she's got at the one man who seems doomed to deflect it.

El ritmo de la cinta es algo lento en un inicio pero después mejora, aunque hay que decirlo, se siente la mano manipuladora del director que parece haber estado más concentrado en pensar si el público se sentiría conmovido que en hacer un filme memorable.

Proof that no black actor, regardless of acclaim or popularity, can ever truly transcend the Mythical Black Man motif. Milquetoast dweebishness robs Will Smith of his natural forcefulness, and "Seven Pounds" has easily the worst ending of the last decade.

An overwrought, improbable drama that's as frustrating as it is morbid.

That big twist at the end... if you go back and analyze it -- I'm not sure it holds up, but I don't think it really matters all that much.

Reactions to the movie will largely depend on whether or not viewers decide this time that the divine Mr. Smith has overreached. I say he has -- but I can't tell you why.

As high concepts go, Seven Pounds is distasteful in the extreme.

It takes the soggy cake for multiple layers of sentimentality topped by indigestible grandiosity.

It's not what you'd call any good, but Claude Lelouch fans, say, might relish its grandiose romantic gestures in the face of all known logic.

I've never seen such a bad film so well made.
