Movie Reviews of The Pursuit of Happyness (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: The Pursuit of Happyness does everything a great movie is supposed to do!
Summary: 5 Stars
We sat on the edge of the couch until the last scene, and then we cried because we were so happy. THE PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS is one of those movies you must see in your lifetime. It does everything a great movie is supposed to do. It takes the viewers out of themselves and puts them into the movie.
The acting was perfect. It never felt as though the people were playing roles. It seemed we were looking into their lives. Jaden Smith was incredibly good in his part.
If the story had been fiction, I would have complained that it was too farfetched to happen; but since it really did happen, I simply have to admire the man who struggled with superhuman strength to be all the man he could be day after day.
It made me think of the times when my life was more than I thought I could bear. (I've been there! Solomon's Porch: The Story of Ben and Rose) And it made me think of how much better most of us have it every day than Will Smith's character Chris Gardner had it.
My favorite scene in the movie was the church scene, in which the struggling man and his son depicted a reliance on God when they were near the end of their rope.
I hope you enjoy this movie soon.

Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is a perfect sample that you'll never surrender at any cost, you must be fight day by day, reach your dream and make come true in your life !!!Movie Review: From the Depths of Despair to Success and Happyness
Summary: 5 Stars
The power of intention is prevalent in this film (based on a true story), but in a much more personal way. Chris finds himself broke, divorced, and the primary caretaker of his young son.
You will find yourself riveted to the screen as you follow along his painful and arduous journey as Chris digs deep within to find the success and happyness that we all deserve.
If this film doesn't make you believe in the power of the human spirit and positive thinking then nothing will.
Movie Review: Believe in YOURSELF!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have not been so inspired by a film in a long while. It was truly a story of believing in yourself when nobody else does, when the world hands you lumps and lemons, make the best of it, make lemonade as the saying goes. The true story of Chris Gardner is hard hitting, as real as he lived it in his own experience back in the early 1980's. It's a truthful documentation of his personal life battle to succeed despite all adversity, and how he overcame all the ditches to wind up on top, all the while being a solid and supportive father to his impressionable son. The line with his boy on the basketball court, where he tells him never to let anyone take his dream away by telling him he cannot do something, is very poignant as it shows us how easy it is to fold under negative pressure from people who say I CAN'T or YOU CAN'T. The message here is to take what you do have, even when it seems it isn't much, and try with all you have within you to turn it around, survive, come out on top and say I CAN. The supporting cast is extraordinary, especially young Jaden Smith as Christopher Jr. The extras are very interesting, especially the interview with the real life Chris Gardner. I recommmend this movie for all as the message is very positive and personally empowering....Believe in Yourself!
