I don't know if I'd call Will Smith beautiful, but I'd hit it.

I have no desire to see it.  Smith has been on this whole holier-than-thou-movie kick lately that just eats my ass.

...in a bad way.

Meh. He bugs and he's a scientologist.

Not according to Smith.

He considers himself rather to be a "student of world religions" (what a celebrity says when his hasn't really studied world religions but wants to sound mildly "spiritual").

He told "Access Hollywood" last month: "I was introduced to it by Tom, and I'm a student of world religion. I was raised in a Baptist household. I went to a Catholic school, but the ideas of the Bible are 98% the same ideas of Scientology, 98% the same ideas of Hinduism and Buddhism."

Presumably the other 2% is the part about the evil space emperor who put the hydrogen bombs in the volcano.

Not sure if he's a member, but he does give the Xenu-freaks lots of money.



Zookie, in terms of the film, the Times would beg to differ:

Frankly, though, I don’t see how any review could really spoil what may be among the most transcendently, eye-poppingly, call-your-friend-ranting-in-the-middle-of-the-night-just-to-go-over-it-one-more-time crazily awful motion pictures ever made . . . For all its pious, earnest air, “Seven Pounds” cries out to be remade as an Asian horror movie, so that the deep, creepy grotesqueness of its governing premise might be allowed to flourish, rather than to fester beneath the surface.
