Great movie for everyone and very inspiring. This movie makes us realize the importance of lie and education and to reach for our goals. Will Smith needs an Oscar for this movie.

It`s a movie that everyone should see, since we`re all just a paycheck away from the streets. Great movie, very inspiring.

30 mins shorter will make it perfect movie. Also, it`s not a movie need to be seen on big screen.

Schmultzy film--totally predictable. Redundant scenes slowed down this film. Perhaps with a different director, Will Smith could have stretched his acting abilities. As it stands...he portrayed a one-dimentional character. Too much "Americana"...max 1 star.

A realy great story/movies. Glad my wife made me see it.

I almost have a heart attack of so much sadness to see how he was able to cope up with so much poverty and that did not stop him from his determination to better himself. I was hoping that at the end they should have shown more of his new life .....a better life. I cried so much when he was in tears when he was told that he got the job!!! Well done!!!

Brutal - a premise without a movie. Needed a serious rewrite and an editor. Vanity flick for Smith to hang out with his son in an ineffectual effort to gain serious actor credibility.

My friend K and I enjoyed this movie a lot! The scene where Chris is asked to stay made us both cry....soo good :) N

Wonderful movie although not always factually accurate. In the movie, Gardner (Smith) works for Dean Witter Reynolds without any income for 6 months. In reality, Gardner was paid something. In the movie, he was not allowed to stay at a homeless shelter for women, but this was not the case: Rev. Williams did let him stay at the Glide Memorial United Methodist Church shelter for women. Details aside, an inspiring movie one cannot miss.

A very touching movie. Will Smith`s protrayal of a man down and out but with a ton of tenacity to pursue his dreams is truly inspirational! The love of father and son shows throughout the entire film and the ending can motivate anyone to fufill their inner most dreams!

i loved it

User review rating: 0 December 29, 2006

It was very good acting, little Smith excellent but on the whole the movie very depressing, would have liked to see a bit more of the success at the end of picture.

User review rating: 0 December 29, 2006

Good movie but way too much emphasis and too long on the negative side of his life and should have shown some later success to be more balanced. Great story but Poor Directorship and Production.

User review rating: 0 December 29, 2006

This was an excellent film. I really enjoyed the story. Will Smith deserves some critical acclaim for this role, because he played it with such heart and emotion. He connected to his character, and his character connected to the audience, making them understand the turmoil and pain he was going though in his life. Smith`s son, Jaden, was so adorable, and did a great job playing his on-screen son. This movie makes you want to look further into the story of Chris Gardner and even pursue your own dreams. Such a heart-felt film.

Not a Will Smith fan but how do argue against several million teenage girls.

Best movie I have seen in a long time. Good story line, no hollywood additives!

User review rating: 0 December 28, 2006

This unsettling movie will produce desrvedly great reviews for Will Smith and his son but I choked on the sickening plot that saw a man willing to sacrifice his family`s health and welfare to a gruelling, disheartening, saddening six-month non-paying indenturment scheme obviously designed to produce great profits with almost zero remunderation to the apprentices.

-depressing movie up to the last few minutes - I go to the movies to get a `rush`, laugh, thrill, and the occasional tear/sadness - the latter emotion dominated the entire movie - would like to have enjoyed his life after success had been achieved! -great acting but poor storyline for me! 3 out of 5

User review rating: 0 December 27, 2006

Very inspiring movie. Will Smith was so great. And so was his son. It was sad, funny, and happy at the same time. I loved it. Totally Oscar worthy.

awsome! it made me cry

User review rating: 0 December 26, 2006

This movie had a beautiful story. It was somewhat slow in parts but the movie as a whole sent out a very touching message. I find that it was either a love it or hate it movie because of everyones different tastes in movies. I would definately reccomend seeing this if you enjoy very touching movies without much violence

User review rating: 0 December 26, 2006

Beautifully done. First movie I have felt like praying for the main character.
