Seven Pounds (2008)

[Movie 116 / Day 84]


Unusual love story that's both moving and thought provoking. A man sets out to give several other people gifts and through flashbacks and a couple of twists, we find out what those gifts are and why he's giving them away.

Enjoyable, if a little on the sad side.

My rating: 7.9 / 10

Semi-Pro (2008)

[Movie 80 / Day 48]


Will Ferrell is Jackie Moon, the owner / player / coach of the Flint Michegan Tropics. He has to get his basketball team of misfits into 4th place in order to take advantage of a merger deal with the NBA. Comedy ensues. Mostly. Some funny bits, anyway.
