I wish I liked this better than I did

Rating: 7/10 (29 March 2007)

Will Smith & his real son Jared both received very well deserved Oscar nominations for there finely etched performances.
They say that this is a true story,Now maybe I am as skeptic, It sure reads like a human interest story in Readers Digest.Struggling father left with small son, whose wife deserted him, and his subsequent search for a better job & somewhere to live when his money runs out.
There were some scenes that bordered on slapstick comedy,maybe they did this to remind us that the star Will Smith usually does comic style roles & here is very serious.
The setting is in San Francisco & every day is very clear & sunny.
OOPS. as we all know not every day is clear & sunny in the city by the bay. They just must of had a string of good days for filming/ .
See this for the fine acting & not the story.
