The other movie we got this weekend was Seven Pounds with Will Smith and Rosario Dawson.

I wasn't always the biggest fan of Will Smith until I got married. I thought he was too cocky and arrogant in Independence Day and that impression stuck with me for a really long time. And then I saw both Hitch and Jersey Girl and it totally changed my opinion of him.

Rosario Dawson is a different story. I have always liked every movie that I have seen her in. She left an indelible impression on me in 25th Hour and brought the necessary humanity to Clerks II, but at the same time could "roll with the boys".

This movie while told out of sequence still had that spark of interest for me. I unfortunately figured out the main twist at the very early part of the movie. Maybe I remember something from the trailer, but the whole medical thing was just way too transparent.

I am always a fan of redemption stories though. This one didn't disappoint. I was worried about the "Happy Hollywood Ending" in the last 20 minutes, but the people behind the film had the courage enough to not change it so everyone lives happily ever after.

It was a good weekend for movie watching. Along with Sunshine, I give this movie 4 out of 5 stars. I'd watch it again.
