seven pounds
Gabriele Muccino is back with seven pounds. The web of mystery was well weaved, it eluded me till the end like the smooth stride of the box gelly fish , the Tim's (Will Smith) pet.
what Tim was upto?
why he harrased the blind man?
why he was not comfotable while doing so?
why he was gripped by a grit all the time , except a forced pleasentness seeps into his face on confronting the seven he choosed?
why he mended Emily Posa's (Rosario Dawson) garden and her rare Heidelberg press?
why he made her failing heart fall for him?
after winning her heart why rushed to his room to 911 to announce that he was going to kill himself?
As he let out his poisonous pet into the ice cube filled bath tub and immerses himself... everything becomes clear... suicide is a sin religious books says, but it could be really altruistic as in the case of Tim?
'Seven pounds' is too heavy viewers say... loaded with tons of sentiments, i too felt so through half way, but definitely not after the movie finished. No emotions are too heavy if we track down the rationality behind it.
my marks: 46 out of 100
