Pursuit of Happyness Movie Review

The Pursuit of Happyness chronicles the real life of Christopher Gardner who found himself homeless with a son and managed to work his way up from nothing to becoming a successful stock broker.

Will Smith gave a moving performance in this movie and while it starts out slow, the energy and anticipation of watching him fight and struggle his way through his internship sucks  you into the film. The moment that will always grab my heart is watching his cry in the bathroom with his son because they are forced to live in such poverty.

I give this movie a B+ and will definitely get it on dvd. The fact that I really enjoyed this movie is shocking to me since even as a woman I hate chick flicks and anything that doesn’t have action, fighting and more.
