Movie Review - Pursuit of Happyness

Pursuit of Happyness - Will Smith

This movie was fantastic, I loved every minute of it. It's based on a true story about a very smart guy who goes through some very hard times. He is struggling to sell scanners to hospitals, is only getting enough to keep afloat, struggling with taxes and rent. His wife leaves him when it gets too hard, and leaves him with their son, Christopher. When walking past an accountancy firm one day he notices how happy they all are, and resolves to become a stock broker to solve his problems.

It's a beautifully shot film, you hardly notice the camera is there as you go along with him in his life. This is Will Smith as I have never seen him. It's his real life son in the film with him, he is a cutie and a natural in front of the camera. You really feel for this guy and the difficulties he manages just to survive. In the end it really made me cry. The film has been given a GA rating, (Grandma Approved) Everyone will love this film, certainly one to see at the cinema before it ends.
