Review : Christopher Gardner ,this name you will remember surely for a long time after watching Gabriele Muccino's classic "Pursuit of happyness". Inspired by a true story this movie indeed is Will smith's one step forward to the golden lady.
The film revolves round Chris Gardner(Will) and his son Christopher(Jaden Smith- son of Will and Jada Pinkett)who tries to sale a bone scanner throughout the movie.Her wife Linda (Thandie Newton) depressed of her marital life and out of sheer depression leaves for Newyork leaving her family. Life became a mere search of 'happyness' for father and son from thereafter.The miss spelling of happyness is indeed sarcastic to its core.Soon the father-son looses home,had to literally hunt down food in the streets.Christopher became desperate and with every passing day the hunt for happiness made him more desperate.He applies for a stockbroker internship where one in twenty has a chance of a lucrative full time career.But the real touchy part is towards the end,final scene were just too good for any movie buff.
I absolutely love this movie.It teaches us Two ways to be rich: One is to have great wealth. The other is to have few wants .It is one of my favourite films made ever.If you have missed it in theatres do rent a CD soon from a nearby CD-library.
Rating :4.5/5 *A must watch*
