+Blue Whovian Just cause you know what happens in the end, there's no need to mention it on a KZitem comment and spoil it for some other people. I've already seen it though. It's okay, probably an honest mistake, just a heads up for the future. PS. If you still haven't seen The Sixth Sense, you should watch it anyway. I already knew about the thing at the end before I saw it, but I watched it anyway, and it's still an incredible film.

you have to be such a pretentious movie critic to hate this movie. Sure, it's predictable. I honestly think that's kind of the point, and even if it isn't, it works beautifully. The whole time you know will smith's character is going to die. if you just watch the movie without looking at it through some ridiculous lens, expecting a corny version of will smith gunning for an Oscar (such a strange criticism), it's amazing.

Mark Kermode was simply poorly primed before watching this film. By the producers asking him not to give away the ending, he was probably looking for a crazy twist whilst watching the film. Without the initial priming, he may have enjoyed the film, like the rest of us who weren't necessarily looking for a twist, but perhaps assumed it was a simple story of loss and love. I blame the producers for warning him not to give away the twist ending, but also Mark's ignorance to the shift of standpoint that this caused.

nikosvault Rotten Tomatoes: Critics - 27%; Audience Average - 3.6/5 & 75% "Liked It" from 635k Users. IMDb: Critics - 36%; Audience Average - 7.7/10 from 203k Users. Meta Critic: Critics - 7 Positive, 14 Mixed, 12 Negative; User Reviews - 76 Positive, 5 Mixed, 31 Negative. If you take the time to look at those statistics, you will notice that although critics disliked this film, with some horrendous reviews, many wider audiences enjoyed it. They are "the rest of us". Taste is subjective and can be easily affected by external influence, it is not for one person to definitively tell us what is good and what is not, when the matter of judging art, in all its forms, has limitless variables and parameters: That is for each individual to decide. I have watched many films where I have been disappointed because (I suspect) what someone told me, or what I'd heard before watching the film, affected my expectancies. Likewise, when I've watched films that I know have had bad reviews, I've often been pleasantly surprised. NOTE: Whilst it is virtually impossible not to hold some sort of preconception of a film prior to watching it, I did not read any reviews before watching Seven Pounds.

A bit harsh, I rather enjoyed it, I don’t like many Will Smith films, they’re a bit too blockbuster pop corny for me but this was ok. I think Kermode’s judgement was coloured by the non-disclosure proviso, that kind of hype would probably irritate me also.
