Very Inspirational

Rating: 8/10 (1 January 2007)

I really enjoyed the film. If those that see the film would actually understand what happens to those that are downtrodden and have no resources, the film could make a difference in some people's lives.
The film shows first hand how some people cannot see what is put before them. The people that should have realized that Chris had a problem, in fact did not notice. It was partly because Chris did a great job of trying to conceal it, but it also is about how people see what they want to see and not what is before their eyes.
Little Jaden Smith is remarkable in this film. I can bet we will be seeing a lot of this young man as he gets older. It sort of made me feel older to see Will Smith playing the part of such an older, responsible person. The scene in the restroom at the train station was a real heartstring tugger.
I highly recommend this film and I also recommend those that see it to pay closer attention to those whose luck has all but run out. They are all around us. We may be the one that keeps them from going down the gutter. There is inspiration all in this film. Pay attention!
