7 Pounds-

This movie will touch your heart in places you never knew existed. It is a little slow, but this is a human in tune with what he wants and doesn't let anything stop him from completing what he started.


Two years ago, Tim Thomas(Will Smith) caused a car crash, 7 people died. 6 of em were strangers, 1 was his fiancee.


Tim decides on redemption. He sets out to save the lives of 7 good people. After the crash, he quit his job as an engineer. Donates a lung lobe to his brother. 6 mths later he donates part of his liver to a child services worker named Holly. After that, he begins searching for more candidates, to recieve donations. He finds a hockey coach, and donates a kidney to him, then donates bone marrow to a young boy.


2 weeks before he dies, he contacts Holly and asks if she knows of anyone who deserves help. She suggests Connie who lives with an abusive boyfriend. Tim moves out of his house and into a local motel, taking with him his pet(box - jellyfish). 1 night after being beaten, Connie contacts Tim and he gives her the keys and deed to his beach house. She takes two children and moves in their new home.


The 2nd last candidate was a blind meat salesman. Tim calls him at work to check if he is quick to anger. Ezra, the blind man remains calm and Tim decides he is worthy.


He then contacts Emily Posa, a self employed greeting card printer who has a heart condition and a rare blood type. He spends his time with her, weeding her garden. He begins to fall in love with her and decides that as her condition worsened he needs to make his donation.


Tim returns to the motel. He fills the bathtub with ice water to preserve his vital organs, climbs in, then commit suicide by pulling his box jellyfish into the water with him. The jellyfish then stung him to death. After he died, Ezra recieves his corneas and Emily recieves his heart.


When Emily was saved, Tim's brother went to look for her and told her the story.. Then she knew why she was saved..
