A couple of buddies and I went and saw Pursuit of Happyness last night. After getting over the fact that I haven't been to see a movie in awhile and price of admission here is $9.75, I settled in to watch what I felt was a feel good story.
I wasn't disappointed. Will Smith's character keeps getting knocked down left and right and he keeps pursuing his dream. There are some inconsistencies in the movie, but I guess they had to fudge some stuff in order to embellish some of the miracle. It was rather long or the pacing was off, one of those is true.
I think Will Smith and the boy who played his son both did a good job in the acting department. There were a few heart wrenching scenes.
Although, I don't know why he just didn't go and get a job at a fast food place, I mean if he was really that poor, there are ways to make money.
NOTE - if you are in the Westfield Mall at Plaza Camino Real, don't tell someone to meet you in front of Macy's. Evidently there are two of them.

The 'boy who played his son' was actually Jaden Smith, Will Smith's middle son.
