A strong emotional experience

Rating: 8/10 (29 January 2007)

Incredible social drama that hardly leaves anyone untouched. The acting performance of Will Smith and his son is outstanding. The movie has very believable atmosphere and it drags you into the story. Going through the movie, I kept imagining myself in the heart-breaking situations the main character - Chris Gardner - had to go through. Chris Gardner is amazing personality with utmost strength and ability to overcome the unimaginable nightmares of destiny, which regular life of and unfortunate may bring. This movie is about the power of father-son love and willingness of a man to do everything possible to secure and protect his offspring(s). The Pursuit of happiness is not 'just a movie' like you see every other day, it's a great film offering a strong emotional experience.
