When I first heard the title of this film, I was very puzzled as to why it was so named. As the story unfolded, the questions in my mind gradually unfolded. Will Smith plays a man named Ben Thomas, who killed his wife and 7 other people in a car accident due to his driving error. At the same time, these 7 people are all good people who have been confirmed by him. Will donated his property, kidneys, lungs, bone marrow, corneas, and finally his heart to these 7 people who need help most. With Will donating his heart, his life also came to an end, and he also completed his self-redemption with relief.
Of the seven people, I was most impressed with EZRL for the blind and EMILY for congenital heart disease. The blind man in the film, EZRL, did not do anything shocking, but just worked quietly and focused on playing the piano. When you asked him what color the sea was, he told you bluntly that it was BLUE. Living in a world without pictures and colors, he knows how to appreciate and experience more than normal people. The notes that emerge from his fingertips create a happy and relaxed harmony. However, in our day-to-day life, we gradually ignore the gorgeous colors in front of us. EMILY has a congenital heart disease, a heart that may stop beating at any time and a life that may end with it, but her eyes are not sad, but shining with happiness from time to time, when she and her beautiful When the big dog walks, when she prints greeting cards...
Will's final choice, help or redemption, doesn't seem to be so clearly divided, I'm just wondering if he is reluctant to leave because of nostalgia, because he is helping In the process of others, he has rediscovered the beauty of life and experienced the joy of life. His love with EMILY is real. If a person's life is born with a certain defect, he will have a greater enthusiasm for life. When it is inevitable to experience the pain of life, some people think that they only focus on the experience The good in life.
"Seven Pounds" is really a movie that is extremely suitable to watch during Christmas, especially in the current financial crisis, American lives have been hit a lot. Such a film is full of warm soundtrack, noble artistic conception, and beautiful expression of life, so that the viewers can feel the warmth of winter more or less. Recommend interested friends to take a look, not bad.
Finally, I want to say a few words about Will Smith. According to the survey, he has become the most cost-effective actor. That is, the money investors spend on him can get more box office than the same money spent on other actors. But take a look at his films "I, Robot", "I Am Legend", "Superman for All", "When Happiness Comes Knocking", etc. in recent years, different styles of films and characters with different personalities, he interprets them all. Going further down, I personally think he'll be another outstanding black actor after Daniel Washington.
