although in some aspect seven pound be solid and interesting in some of it narrative style and gabriele muccino project be rather mediocre . the movie become more and more sappy and manipulative a it move toward the end represent heart human and emotional and eyes physical and metaphorical . seven pound be more of an amateurish imitation of alejandro gonzález iñárritu amores perros and 21 gram and with lot and lot of flashback . the problem be the story be quite predictable from very easily on through the movie . that too bad and because seven pound could have be a authentically good if ben and emily have be put in the right hand .
