girlscangame Every time I feel like giving up, I watch this movie and it reminds me that quitting is not an option.

loriharon Will Smith shines and proves that he isn't just a big budget action man in this heartfelt rendition of a real-life story. A door to door salesman without much luck lands an internship but his private life is absolute hell as he tackles with money issues. What is worse is he has his five-year-old boy to take care of, whilst he does all of it. Buoyed by both the Smith's performances as father-son The Pursuit Of Happyness is never melodramatic (or not to the extent it becomes noticeable) and real life lessons on ethics of hard work are finely put forth. Go watch it to get a lesson of sorts.

amine_bouzid The first time I watched this movie I wasn't quite sure what to expect. What I got was not only an amazing movie with great acting, but an inspiring message of how to be resilient in life in order to get what you want. This is by far Will Smith's best performance as an actor, and I'm surprised he hasn't been awarded an Oscar for this movie. I never cry for movies but this popped my cherry, the end is unbelievably satisfying. By far my favourite movie.

Anwesha Choudhury The character of Chris Gardner played by Will Smith was that of an extremely strong-willed human being. It is easy to crumble after repeated failures but Chris chose to not give up till the very end. And joblessness enough can make one depressed but this father of a 5-6 year old boy battled not only unemployment but also homelessness single-handed.From being broke and barely surviving on 21$ to constantly inspiring his son towards a better future to running almost half of his life to meet ends meet, this man only felt happiness the moment all his struggles bore fruit with that employment offer after a tedious internship. The character of Chris Gardner only oozes a lot of strength, grit, personality and his ever humble nature. He certainly was a great father.
