Review of The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) by Js — 29 Apr 2007

One hell of a good movie, and makes me appreciate my life so much more. Its a story about a guy who had a dream, went staight after it, and got it in the face of overwhelming odds. I was also expecting that this would be another picture portraying all whites as bad people, but it wasn't like that at all.

In fact, while the people from his own neighborhood largely rejected him and kicked him out, it was a bunch of rich white guys in suits who ended up giving him his chance (after he worked like crazy to make it happen).

It was an ironic twist to a wonderful film. I am also no Will Smith fan, but he was perfect in this role.
