Has anyone seen this movie? I saw it last night and it is such an excellent movie. An encouraging movie to never give up on your dreams no matter what kind of obstacles you face. I highly reccomend it. Only have yourself a box of kleenex handy if you are soft hearted like me!

Hey there Marcialoyd,
I couldn't agree more on what you have just said. This movie was quite the spirit booster but it had it's tearjerker moments as well. It has been a while since I have watched this movie being since it was out in theatres that is, but it stuck with me for quite some time. Thank you so much for bring this movie back up and I plan to watch it tomorrow now that you mention it, because I really want to see it again!!! lol keep your eyes open for those good genuine movies out there!

No I have not seen that movie. Movies can be misleading, nothing but fictitious stories that can create an emotional turmoil in an effort to gain box office rating. You know why, lol am not a movie lover in the first place. I believe in the reality of life.

Yes, I have seen this movie 3 or 4 times and it gets me every time. It is such a great movie. Will Smith and his son are excellent in it. It is so sad how they can not get by on their job and his wife leaves him all alone with his son. They have a tough struggle but at the end they get through it with better lives for him and his son. It is a great movie that I recommend as well.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie too. It is very inspiring, and even more so because it is based on actual events. Not only was I crying my eyes out, so were my kids. We all sat there watching it with tears rolling down our cheeks, and it didn't only happen the first time we watched it. Each and every time we watch this movie, we end up in tears.
I think that they did an excellent job with this movie.
