Much like The Usual Suspects or The Sixth Sense, Seven Pounds is a really hard movie to review without giving away the storyline. I went into this release having no idea what the plot was and feel that is the best approach. Therefore the majority of this review will focus on the acting, technical aspects and special features rather than the storyline itself.
