i haven't seen the movie, but i know what it's about



basically will smith's character gets in a car wreck (which is his fault) and kills 7 people. after this, he decides that he is going to donate 7 "pounds of flesh" to 7 people, all who need different organs to live. his plan is to find 7 people who he thinks deserves some of his flesh, and that once he decides on the people, he will kill himself and donate his organs.

Once, Tim Thomas (Will Smith) was a gifted aerospace engineer with a beautiful wife and a lovely beach house. Then, while using his cell phone while driving, his car wandered across lanes and he became responsible for the deaths of 7 others, including his beloved wife. Unable to forgive himself or raise the dead, Tim sets out to give "pounds of flesh" that will give new life to seven deserving individuals to make up for the seven lives he destroyed.

In creation, Seven represents the day of Rest of God. It also rhymes with heaven... People who have 7's in their address, birthdate even driver's license number... usually have good fortune and seldom get in trouble with the law. They usually are lead of God and have intuition that can not be contained or explained in books... even the bible. There are 7 holes in the human head, 7 days in one week, and the seventh letter of the alphabet is "G" as in GOOD or GOD. U.S Government was formed in the 7th month. Cancer and Leo are signs that exist in the the 7th month. Cancers and Leo's have very heavenly qualities. Saturday "seventh day" is the sabbath day. It is also the day where the most money is made in the entertainment industry, retail and restaurants. 7 is a wonderful number...

Seven pounds of flesh, seven debts to be paid. A pound of flesh is a term meaning you have a debt that needs to be paid. It's from The Merchant of Venice by Shakespeare I do believe.

all the (spoiler alert) organs/body parts he gave away weighed seven pounds. Also, he killed seven people, and then saved seven people.

I think it's the weight of the organs he donates at the end of the movie. The movie was horribly depressing and very predictable.
