ok. i will be calm for a second cause on the inside i want to implode.

before i completely lose it and tell you about it, another little reminder that i loathe movie critics. they said they didn't get the title...didn't like the movie.

do you all know what 7 lbs means? it's a catholic term that means retribution. 7 lbs of flesh...paying it back...with that said...who the heck wouldn't 'get' that title after seeing the movie. mmmkay...now for the part when i freak out.

THIS. MOVIE. WAS. SO. FLIPPING. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

in fact amazing doesn't work as an adjective in this case...i don't know how to tell you that i have never felt that way in a movie before. beyond amazing and into a category i don't know how to describe.

trailer in case your not in the know. :)
the acting was perfection, pure genius, untouchable.

the story was well...the MOST touching in a theatrical standpoint that i have ever been a part of.

you will not leave that movie the same and this is coming from a girl who loves gumdrop movies. i don't love to cry. i don't love not perfect endings.

THIS MOVIE. WOW!!!!!!!!!

i'm not kidding when i say that it is hands down THE BEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE.

i really wanna see it!! i tear up at the trailers, lol! Will Smith ROCKS! he is one of my most fave actors. he's come a long way since his Fresh Prince days, huh? :wub:

i just watched the trailer again. I MUST see it!!
 
my sister and i decided even before seeing this movie last night that he is our fave actor in hollywood. with the dynamic of roles that he is capable of playing he is untouchable for me in the talent department.

the best there is in hollywood!! seeing this movie confirmed that for me.
 
Lord...I can't even stand to see the previews, I wanna cry...I can't imagine the movie itself.
I love Will Smith...
 
shannon...i'm not even kidding when i say that this movie will change your life.

when i was in bed last night, i could not get it out of my head. i started to cry in bed. hours after seeing it.

so worth the tears. you will never view human life the same again.
 
I really want to see it but I don't "do" movie theaters since we have our own at home... That way I can pause, be in my comfies with my blankie on my own comfy couch. :)
 
We saw it Tuesday night and are still talking about it. It is probably the most amazing movie I've ever seen. I can't describe the way it made me feel. I don't tend to cry a lot at movies, but at one point I was all out sobbing. It was pure genius, the whole thing.

You do have to pay attention, though. It takes a while to put all the pieces together. But there's this moment when it all hits you, full force, and it's just incredible.

Run. Go see it.
 
yes jennifer!!! i knew i loved you for a really good reason. you feel the same way i do. the movie was just completely life changing, i feel.
 
Totally. We're going to try to slip away to see it again while it's still in theaters. I just really want to watch for all the little things I'm sure I missed the first time. KWIM? It's def. a go-to-the-theater movie. Will Smith...just incredible. All around perfection. Even writing about it now, I get chills, The whole thing blows me away.
 
yes!!!!!!!!!!!! i got goosebumps thinking about it again too!!! i would totally go see it again, and well i have too since i went with my sister and my hubby HAS to see it. :)
 
Oh yes, make sure hubby sees it. I'm so proud of mine for "getting" it the way I did. :wub: He's ok...I may just keep him.
 
oh my word. talk about a man woman when it comes to emotion...MY DH! hello...anytime i start to cry in a movie dennis' tears are already flowing.

i love that man. :wub:
 
So Fizz you liked it huh? ;)

Seriously, I have to agree about Will Smith. That guy is uber talented! I just said that recently to DH about how he can sure pick winner roles too! I just have never seen him in anything I didn't like. I am dying to see this one too.
 
I was curious about this movie so I searched online the other night about what it was about since the plot is kinda hushed.
But I did find a spoiler and I think it sounds AMAZING and heartbreaking and awesome.
I really want to see it and I'm hoping that DH and I can take a trip to do just that this weekend.

I agree with you about Will Smith, too. I think he has become one of the greatest actors of our time. We watched Hancock on NYE because the kids wanted to see it and really, if you've seen that movie then you know he can change from comedic actor at the beginning to strong serious drama/action actor at the end.
Such a powerhouse. I really can't wait to see it.
