Starring Will Smith

If you are looking for a good depressing movie that is a real downer and makes you feel just slightly better about yourself then this is the one.

It is very hard to follow in the begining and middle and it doesn't get completely cleared up as to what is going on until the very last 1/2 hour.

I was hoping for a good dismal movie yesterday and I found it.

Duplicity Julia Roberts new movie- confused till the end and i think i still did not get the movie!
Haunting in CT- I swear i saw the same story on lifetime. I think i saw that this is a true story but half way through the movie i knew i saw it somewhere before.

2 thumbs down so far, well 3 i would include Seven Pounds in the thumbs down too..

I can't understand how this is a bad movie... It is WILL SMITH.... I love this guy. I will probably watch it no matter what.

Knowing me I too will like it just because its Will Smith. I love that guy, his acting is always awesome. Amazing but I always thought his wife, Jada was a great actress. She is beautiful.

Think the movie that surprised me the most was the Bruce Willis one where you don't realize he is dead till close to the end. Then when you think back you remember certain clues. Can't remember the name. Loved it.

At what point did you realize Willis was dead? Do have the tape and still enjoy watching it. Totally different since you know from the beginning he is dead and a ghost.

At the end... and I had an ah-hah moment when I realized it. That was a good movie.

I was thinking something was strange near the middle, but I didn't put it all together until the end.

I thought about half way through that something was weird. That people didn't really look at him. When it was obvious to me was just before the end. When I watched it the second time I almost forgot he was dead. It was weird, but damn good..

Hunters Eye will become famous soon enough
I must not watch that much tv cause I have never heard any of the movies. But I do agree that Will Smith is a good actor. I loved him in I Robot.
