The Pursuit Of Happiness stars Will Smith and his son Jaden Smith. This is film is an accoint of a true life story, where a single father is left homeless after his divorce and struggles to make ends meat selling his inventions. At the same time he pursues an unpaid internship in hopes to get the high paying job at the cost of living out of a suitcase and finding a place to sleep every night.
I can honestly say that Will Smiths performance in this film is incredible, this is the best acting i've seen him do so far. His real life son is obviously following in his fathers foot steps and skill, he too does an excellent job.
The film makes the everyday reality of life apparant, it's struggles, ups, downs, everything. I think that everyone who has seen this film can relate to it in one way or another. It could make you cry, make you realise that you're not alone when you've been through the heavy times in life, make you thankful to God that you've made it through alive and encourage you not to give up. I love the biblical undertones of the film that tells the audience not to give up because the hardship is only for a while and even though it seems like it won't end, it will and when it's over you'll appreciate the fruits of it even more.
Definately one to watch if you haven't already watched it.
