Great Movie. I give it a 9.5/10. Will Smith did a great job, movie started out slow but toward the end you know whats going on. What you guys think?

Very good movie  
 
 
And I'm not really a fan of Will Smith either but I watched this one and he was great in it.

I watched about half of it Saturday night. That was the slowest start to a movie I've ever. I actually had to turn it off. I guess I'll have to finish it sometime this week since everybody is praising the last half of it.

This movie sucks.  It is boring and if one cannot figure out what the twists are in the first 15 mins and how hes going to do it you are an imbecile.

It's a good movie to bring your chick to....
 
The wife left the theatre crying and all mushy and stuff....women eat this kinda stuff up
 
It was halfway decent, nothing great....but you will earn brownie points with the chick for taking her to see this

There purposely giving away that info bud ? Id figure about any good movie buff would figure out thats where the true beauty lies within this movie. Making it good even though you can easily assume the ending

I just saw this movie.. and my reaction

Storyline was thinner than thin. The acting was decent, and the ending was just corny.

I give it 3 out of 10. Time for some action Will Smith

Decent movie (7.5 outta 10) - but two things I didn't like:
 
1 - the title......where is the correlation to pounds?  I'm obviously missing something here......
 
2 - I didn't get to see Rosario completely naked

not many Shakespeare lovers on covers.....(me too)
reference to a great debt ........in the play "the merchant of venice"....as "collateral".....kinda ,,,,,a borrower had to submit a "pound of flesh" > if he could not repay the loan....
in the film.....7 victims (died in car crash)........7 "debts" >> 7 pounds of flesh..........can't believe everybody didn't get this.....ROFLMFAO
that rosario dawson is badass > haven't paid much attention to her before....
