The Pursuit Of Happiness By shelly on - Updated Oct 15, 2011

This movie is one of my Will Smith's favorites. It was really nice to see him do something that was sentimental and touching instead of all action films. I cried, I laughed and I felt bad for the characters in the movie, just like they intended us to when they made the movie. I give this movie all thumbs up! I loved to see Will Smith with his own family, I believe that is why we felt real emotions to. The movie is about a single father struggling to make a living for him and his son after his girlfriend left him. He has such great determination and passion for living and surviving for him and his son. They are forced to sleep on streets, homeless shelters and they have no money to their name. I would recommend this movie to anyone to watch, especially those struggling with life in any aspects.

This is a good movie and a very insirational tale of overcoming the difficulties of life.

I love Will Smith, still haven't taken the time to watch this movie though. Funny thing is I brought it last Black Friday sales for $5.88 and it is just sitting on the DVD shelf. Maybe this weekend I should take it out finally and watch it :)

This is a great, inspiring movie, I just wish it'd been a little bit shorter.

I was curious about this, I love Will Smith but not a fan of action movies. This sounds like something I would enjoy. I am glad you didn't spoil the ending but I hope it was happy! Thanks

You pretty much stated all the emotions I went through when I watched this movie too.

This is one of the best movies I have seen lately. It makes you think about how easy it would be for so many people in this bad economy to end up like the man in this movie.
