The Pursuit of Happyness


This movie tells the story of Chris Gardner, a struggling single parent with a son. Chris earns his living selling the little needed medical bone density scanners. His wife left when the pressure of working double shift and catering for their family needs became too much to bare. Together, father and son struggle through homelessness, jail time, tax seizure and the punishing despair to find happiness.

This movie is amazing. It's based on a true story with in-your-face reality of life. Audience will feel how it felt like being poor. How hard it is to make a living. I can easily relate how hard it is trying to sell a luxury item but at the same time, trying to keep cool of the fact that your very survival relies on the money from the sales.

Genre: Drama
Story line: 5/5
Visual: 5/5
Audio: 5/5
Acting: 5/5

ps: Be kind to your MLM salesperson. If they are rude to you, it's not really them. It's the desperation that's talking. Cut them some slack, please.
