Okay, this is the second movie in a row I did not want to see, but went anyway because David and Marley were going. Once again, I was pleasantly surprised. Not only was The Pursuit of Happiness a touching, charming and clever movie, but now I have a newfound respect for Will Smith. I think the chemistry between him and his real-life son, Jayden (playing his son in the movie) really helped the emotions come across as sincere. The movie is really intense to me and probably alot of other people who grew up raised by single parents. I found myself rooting hard for the good guy, even though I know how this story ends (read this article about Chris Gardner, whom this story is based on). I high recomment this movie.
