Moviegoers Reject Will Smith’s Organs

Excerpt from I’ll Replace You (2008)

Will Smith’s new organ-donation comedy Seven Pounds came in second at the box office this weekend (behind Jim Carrey’s Yes Man), earning just $16 million — Smith’s worst opening since Ali in 2001. Snowstorms in the East and Midwest are officially being cited as the reason for the crappy take, but we’d like to think that A.O. Scott deserves at least a little credit. [Box Office Mojo]
